        "question": "How do I get to Changshui Intl Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "The most convenient way to reach Kunming Changshui International Airport from downtown is Kunming Metro Line 6, which runs directly from Tangzixiang station near the city center to the airport terminal, with trains operating roughly every 15 minutes from about 6:00 to 23:00 and taking around 20 minutes for the one-way trip. Airport shuttle buses (空港快线) also connect the airport with Kunming Railway Station and Kunming South Railway Station, departing from the B1 level of Terminal 1, with a fare of CN¥25 per person and service from early morning until late night, though frequency drops after 23:00. Taxis and ride‑share services are available and offer door‑to‑door convenience but are more expensive than transit, while driving yourself is possible via the Airport Expressway (S92) with on‑site parking in a multi‑level garage holding 2,883 spaces; however, the metro is generally the fastest and most popular choice given Kunming’s traffic congestion.",
