        "answer": "Mumbai's Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (BOM) offers several ground transportation options. Prepaid taxis and app-based ride services like Uber and Ola are the most popular and convenient, providing direct access to the city center. The Mumbai Metro Line 1 and suburban rail network offer affordable mass transit, but they may require a transfer and can be crowded. Auto-rickshaws are available for shorter distances, though they are slower. Car rentals are possible but not commonly used due to traffic and parking challenges; the fastest and most used option is a prepaid taxi or ride-share.",
