        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in Orlando?",
        "answer": "Orlando International Airport (MCO) is about fifteen miles from downtown Orlando. Ride-share services like Uber and Lyft are the most commonly used option, offering convenient door-to-door service in around twenty to thirty minutes depending on traffic. Taxis are available but more expensive. The Brightline intercity train now connects MCO to downtown Orlando and continues south toward Miami, making it a fast and modern transit option. SunRail commuter rail serves the broader metro area but has limited stops and schedules. The Lynx bus system is the local public transit option but is slow and infrequent. Car rentals are extremely popular given Orlando's spread-out layout and the prevalence of theme parks and attractions requiring personal mobility. Most visitors renting cars will find the Terminal C rental facility convenient. For theme park visitors, resort shuttles and private transfers are also widely used."
