        "question": "Which cities in Guatemala can I fly to from Guatemala City?",
        "answer": "From Guatemala City you can fly non-stop to Flores (Mundo Maya International Airport) for access to Tikal, and to other domestic destinations such as Puerto Barrios, Quetzaltenango, and Retalhuleu on smaller regional carriers like TAG Airlines or Avianca Guatemala. Most travelers choose Flores for the Mayan ruins and jungle, while Puerto Barrios serves the Caribbean coast. There are no train connections, so flights or buses are the main options for reaching other regions."
      },
      "q2": {
        "question": "Are there direct flights from Guatemala City to Guatemala?",
        "answer": "Guatemala City is the capital and main gateway of Guatemala, so asking about flights from Guatemala City to Guatemala likely refers to domestic connections within the country. Non-stop domestic flights from La Aurora International Airport (GUA) serve Flores (for Tikal) on airlines like TAG, and occasionally other small airports on regional carriers. Flight times are typically under an hour."
      },
      "q3": {
        "question": "Which airlines fly from Guatemala City to Guatemala?",

      },
      "q6": {
        "question": "What are the most popular cities to visit in Guatemala?",

      },
      "q8": {
        "question": "Which airports in Guatemala are best to fly into from Guatemala City?",
        "answer": "La Aurora International Airport in Guatemala City is the primary gateway for international flights, so you are already there. For domestic travel within Guatemala, Mundo Maya International Airport in Flores serves the Petén region and Tikal ruins, while Quetzaltenango Airport provides access to the western highlands, but neither receives direct flights from the U.S."

      },
      "q13": {
        "question": "How do I get to La Aurora Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "La Aurora International Airport sits just 6.4 km south of Guatemala City's center, so a taxi or ride-share is the fastest and most convenient option, taking only about 15–20 minutes depending on traffic. Public buses like the Transmetro and Transurbano are the cheapest way to reach the airport, but they can be slower and require navigating stops. Shared shuttle vans and private transfers are also available, often pre-booked through hotels or tour operators. Driving yourself is possible with on-site parking, though traffic and limited parking can make it less appealing than a taxi.",
