        "answer": "From Techo International Airport (KTI), the main ground options into central Phnom Penh are taxis, tuk-tuks, ride-hailing apps (Grab and PassApp), and the Phnom Penh City Bus airport express service. The airport express bus runs daily from 5:30 AM to 11:30 PM, is air-conditioned, and costs just KHR 1,500 (about US$0.37) per trip, making it the most affordable choice, though ride-hailing and taxis are generally faster and more convenient for door-to-door travel. Ride-hailing via mobile apps is the most widely used and popular option in Phnom Penh, while tuk-tuks remain a common local alternative. Car rentals are available but less commonly used by visitors for airport transfers.",

Ride-share services like Uber and Lyft, as well as taxis, offer door-to-door convenience at a higher cost, while driving yourself means paying for airport parking. The FlyAway bus is often the fastest public-transit choice from downtown, while ride-share is the most direct option overall.",

For U.S. routes the type is grounded in the tail number that actually operated the flight; elsewhere it comes from the airline's filed equipment code. Where the source does not commit to a specific variant we name the aircraft family (for example Airbus A320 family) rather than guess, and where no reliable type is on file the aircraft is omitted rather than estimated. Types describe typical scheduled equipment and can vary with seasonal or day-of-week assignments and last-minute swaps.",
