        "answer": "From Vancouver, you will find the most direct flights into Dallas Fort Worth and Houston Intercontinental, with Dallas offering better connections across northern and central Texas. Houston is the best gateway for the Gulf Coast and Galveston, while Austin and San Antonio are ideal if you want to stay in the Hill Country or explore central Texas without a long drive. For a road trip, flying into Dallas and departing from Houston or Austin works well, and smaller airports like El Paso are options only if you are heading far west."
