        "question": "Are there visa requirements to travel from Dallas to San Juan?",
        "answer": "Puerto Rico is a U.S. territory, so travel between Dallas and San Juan is domestic for U.S. citizens and permanent residents with no passport or visa required. Non-U.S. nationals should carry valid travel documents such as a passport and any required U.S. visa, as standard U.S. entry requirements apply."
      },
      "q3": {
        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in San Juan?",
        "answer": "Luis Munoz Marin International Airport sits about eight miles east of downtown San Juan. Taxis are the most commonly used option, with fixed government-regulated fares to major tourist zones including Old San Juan, Condado, and Isla Verde, making pricing predictable. Uber and Lyft operate at the airport and are often slightly cheaper than taxis. The Tren Urbano metro system does not directly serve the airport, though a connecting bus to the nearest station exists but is infrequent and impractical for most travelers with luggage. Public buses called guaguas are available but slow and not well suited for airport transfers. Car rentals are widely available and popular given Puerto Rico's limited public transit network, especially for travelers planning to explore beyond the metro area. For most visitors staying in the main tourist corridors, taxis or ride-share services offer the best balance of convenience and cost."

        "question": "How far in advance should I book tickets from Dallas to San Juan?",
        "answer": "For Dallas (DFW) to San Juan (SJU), the optimal booking window is about 6–9 weeks (roughly 45–65 days) before departure, where average fares sit around $525–$529 — booking last-minute can push prices up to $852. For summer travel or holiday periods (like Thanksgiving, Christmas, or New Year's), it's wise to book earlier, ideally 3–4 months out, as demand for Puerto Rico spikes and the best fares get claimed faster.",
