        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in Orlando?",
        "answer": "Orlando International Airport (MCO) offers several ways to reach the city center and resort areas. The Brightline intercity train connects MCO to downtown Orlando and continues south toward Miami, making it a fast and modern option for city-bound travelers. The LYNX bus network serves the airport but is slow and requires transfers, making it impractical for most visitors. Taxis are available outside the terminals but are more expensive than ride-share services. Uber and Lyft are widely used and convenient, especially for reaching hotels and resort areas like International Drive or Walt Disney World. Car rentals are extremely popular at MCO given Orlando's sprawling layout and the distances between attractions. Most leisure travelers rent cars or use ride-share services, while those heading specifically downtown may prefer Brightline. For theme park visitors, many hotels also offer dedicated shuttle services from the airport."
