        "question": "Are there visa requirements to travel from São Paulo to Boston?",
        "answer": "Yes. Brazilian nationals traveling to the US must obtain a valid US visa, typically a B1/B2 tourist or business visa, before departure. Brazil is not part of the US Visa Waiver Program, so ESTA is not available to Brazilian passport holders. US nationals traveling to Brazil do not need a visa for tourist or business stays of up to 90 days, a policy that became permanent in 2023 after being piloted. All travelers to the US must have a valid passport."

        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in Boston?",
        "answer": "Boston Logan International Airport sits just three miles from downtown, making ground transportation straightforward. The Silver Line SL1 bus runs free from all terminals to South Station, connecting to the Red Line subway and commuter rail, and is the most popular option for budget-conscious travelers. The Blue Line subway is accessible via a free shuttle bus from terminals A and B, reaching downtown in about ten minutes. Taxis are readily available outside each terminal and take fifteen to thirty minutes depending on traffic. Ride-share services like Uber and Lyft are widely used and pick up in designated areas, offering a convenient alternative to taxis at comparable or lower cost. Water taxis run seasonally from the airport ferry dock to downtown piers and offer a scenic and surprisingly fast option. Car rentals are available on-site but driving in Boston can be challenging. The Silver Line is most commonly used due to its convenience and zero fare from the airport."
