        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in San Antonio?",
        "answer": "San Antonio International Airport sits about eight miles north of downtown. Ride-share services like Uber and Lyft are the most popular option, offering convenient door-to-door service in roughly fifteen to twenty minutes depending on traffic. Taxis are available curbside but tend to cost more than ride-share. VIA Metropolitan Transit bus routes 5 and 11 connect the airport to downtown for a low fare but take considerably longer and require transfers. Car rentals are available at the airport and are practical given San Antonio's sprawling layout and limited public transit network. Most visitors opt for ride-share given its balance of convenience and cost, though renting a car is advisable if you plan to explore areas beyond the downtown core and River Walk."
