        "answer": "Within British Columbia, travel is often done by domestic flights, long-distance buses, and ferries along the coast. Vancouver International Airport is the main hub, offering the best connections to places like Victoria, Kelowna, and Prince George. Arriving at smaller airports like Victoria or Kelowna limits onward options, as they mainly serve nearby regions and have fewer connecting flights. For remote areas, consider seaplanes or regional airlines."
