        "question": "Are there visa requirements to travel from Montego Bay to Toronto?",
        "answer": "Yes, visa requirements apply for travel from Montego Bay, Jamaica to Toronto, Canada. Jamaican citizens need a visa to enter Canada, typically a visitor visa (temporary resident visa), unless they hold a valid U.S. visa and are transiting or meet certain exceptions.

Always check current rules before travel, as policies can change."

        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in Toronto?",
        "answer": "From Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ), you can reach downtown Toronto via several modes. The UP Express train is the fastest option, taking about 25 minutes to Union Station and is widely used by travelers. Public transit is available via TTC buses that connect to the subway, though this takes longer (45 to 60 minutes). Taxis and ride-share services like Uber and Lyft offer door-to-door convenience, with a typical drive of 30 to 50 minutes depending on traffic. Car rentals are available at the airport but are less practical for city center trips due to parking costs. The UP Express is the most popular choice for its speed and reliability."
