        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in West Palm Beach?",
        "answer": "Palm Beach International Airport sits just two miles from downtown West Palm Beach, making ground transportation straightforward. Ride-share services like Uber and Lyft are the most popular option, offering quick and affordable trips to the city center in under ten minutes. Taxis are available at the terminal and similarly convenient. Palm Tran, the local bus service, connects the airport to downtown and surrounding areas at very low cost but with slower travel times and limited frequency. Car rentals are available on-site and are a practical choice given that West Palm Beach and the broader Palm Beach County area are car-dependent beyond the downtown core. Hotel shuttles serve many nearby properties. Most travelers opt for ride-share services for their convenience and low cost on such a short trip."
