        "answer": "Cam Ranh International Airport (CXR) is about 35 kilometers south of Nha Trang city center. There is no rail or metro link, so the main options are taxis, ride-share, shuttle buses, and car rentals. Official airport taxis and Grab (ride-share) are the most common and convenient choices, offering a reliable forty-five to sixty minute trip into town at a fixed or metered price. Shuttle buses are a cheaper alternative, running to central Nha Trang in about fifty minutes to an hour but with less flexibility. Car rentals are available but rarely used for city travel due to traffic and parking challenges. Most visitors use taxis or Grab for their door-to-door convenience and reasonable cost."
