        "question": "How do I get to Chhatrapati Shivaji Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "From downtown Mumbai, public transportation to Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport includes suburban trains to nearby stations like Vile Parle or Andheri followed by a short bus or auto rickshaw ride, as well as BEST buses (routes 312, 321, 308) that connect the terminals directly to those railway stations. App-based cabs like Uber and metered taxis are widely used and generally the fastest door-to-door option, while auto rickshaws serve the suburbs. Driving is possible with organized parking at both terminals, though traffic can be heavy and parking is paid. The metro is also an option, with CSMIA Airport T2 and T1 stations offering direct access.",
