      "q13": {
        "question": "How do I get to Arnulfo Romero Airport from the city center?",
        "answer": "From downtown San Salvador, the most direct way to reach Monseñor Óscar Arnulfo Romero International Airport is by private car, taxi, or ride-share along the four-lane Comalapa highway (RN-5), which covers the roughly 42 km (26 mi) journey in about 30 minutes. Public bus service is available but is generally slower and less comfortable, often using repurposed school buses known locally as camionetas. There is no direct rail link to the airport at present, though a planned electrified railway has been proposed. Driving yourself is convenient because the airport has on-site parking, but taxis and ride-shares are the most popular choice for visitors since they avoid the hassle of navigating and parking.",
