        "answer": "From London you can fly non-stop to Minneapolis-Saint Paul, the main gateway to Minnesota.

For the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, fly into Duluth or regional airports like Hibbing. Most international travellers arrive at Minneapolis-Saint Paul International, which is the primary hub and offers the widest range of connections to the rest of the state."

      "q7": {
        "question": "Do I need a passport or visa to travel from London to Minnesota?",
        "answer": "For British citizens travelling from London to Minnesota, a visa is not required for a short tourist visit, and stays of up to 90 days are permitted. However, an electronic travel authorisation known as ESTA must be obtained before travel.\n\nThis is general guidance to help you plan, not official immigration advice — entry rules can change and can depend on your nationality and circumstances, so please confirm the current requirements with the relevant embassy or official government source before you travel.",
