        "question": "Which cities in Quintana Roo can I fly to directly or with one stop from Seattle?",
        "answer": "From Seattle you can fly directly to Cancún International Airport, the main gateway for Quintana Roo. For other destinations like Cozumel or the southern Riviera Maya, you typically connect through Cancún or fly with one stop via hubs such as Mexico City, Houston or Dallas. Choose Cancún for most resort areas; Cozumel is best for island stays but often requires a connection."

      },
      "q8": {
        "question": "Which airports in Quintana Roo are best to fly into from Seattle?",

Cozumel International works well if you are diving or staying on the island, and the new Tulum airport is opening for southern beach access, but Cancún remains the best hub for road trips across Quintana Roo."
