Travelers of other nationalities should check Hong Kong's visa policy, as many countries have visa-free access for short visits, but some require a visa.

        "question": "How do I get to Dubai Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "The Dubai Metro Red Line connects the city center directly to Terminals 1 and 3, offering the most popular and affordable option, especially during peak traffic. Taxis and ride-hailing services like Uber or Careem provide convenient door-to-door transport with 24/7 availability, though they cost more and can be slower in congestion. Limited shuttle buses serve specific hotels and areas, while driving and parking at the airport is possible but generally the least practical due to high fees and traffic.",
