  "connection_tips": "Bushehr International Airport (BUZ) is a compact but critical gateway to southern Iran, serving as a dual-use military and civilian facility on the Persian Gulf. Navigating a connection here is straightforward due to the airport's simple layout, which consists of two separate terminals: one for domestic flights and one for international routes. These terminals are within easy walking distance of each other, meaning no shuttle services are required for transfers. However, it is important to note that BUZ does not offer airside transit. If you are connecting from an international flight (such as from Dubai) to a domestic destination (such as Tehran), you must clear immigration, collect your checked luggage, exit the international terminal, and walk to the domestic terminal to check in again.\n\nFor these international-to-domestic transfers, we highly recommend allowing a minimum of 3 hours to account for customs processing and potential baggage delays. Inside the terminals, facilities are functional but basic. You will find small snack bars and a coffee shop in the domestic area, along with a quiet VIP lounge for premium passengers. It is essential to carry Iranian Rial (IRR) in cash for small purchases and ground transportation, as the airport's ATMs generally only accept local cards.\n\nWe suggest exchanging currency at a dedicated office (Sarrafi) in the city center before your arrival. The airport is exceptionally close to Bushehr city center, located just 3 to 5 kilometers away. Official taxis are available 24/7 outside the arrivals hall, and local ride-hailing apps like Snapp or Tapsi also operate reliably in the area. Due to the airport's joint-use nature, photography is strictly prohibited across the tarmac and in several terminal zones.",

  "terminal_info": "Bushehr International Airport (BUZ) is a significant joint civil and military aviation facility located on the Persian Gulf coast of southern Iran. Situated approximately 14 kilometers northeast of the Bushehr city center, the airport serves as a primary transportation hub for this critical maritime and industrial province. It plays a vital role in the national economy, providing essential connectivity for the energy sector, government administration, and the region\u2019s thriving maritime trade, while also managing seasonal international flights for spiritual pilgrimages.\n\nThe airport operates through two functional passenger terminals: a dedicated domestic terminal and a separate international facility. The domestic terminal manages the majority of traffic, primarily flights to the national capital, Tehran, and features a centralized check-in hall, multiple ticket counters, and a secure departures area. The international terminal is designed for efficient processing of cross-border travelers, equipped with dedicated customs and immigration zones. A defining feature of the airfield is its dual runways, which measure over 4,400 meters in length\u2014among the longest in Iran\u2014engineered to accommodate the heaviest commercial and military transport aircraft.\n\nInside the terminal complex, passengers have access to a variety of essential amenities tailored to the needs of regional travelers. The facility hosts several cafes and snack bars serving traditional Iranian refreshments, alongside retail kiosks offering local handicrafts and travel necessities. For premium travelers, a dedicated VIP lounge provides a quiet environment with business services and refreshments. The terminal is also equipped with modern restroom facilities, prayer rooms, and baggage wrapping services to ensure a high standard of passenger convenience. The airfield\u2019s strategic importance is further enhanced by its proximity to the Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant, serving as a primary logistics node for the facility\u2019s specialized personnel.\n\nGround transportation at BUZ is primarily supported by a reliable network of official taxis, which are readily available outside the domestic terminal exit for the short ten-minute journey to the heart of Bushehr. While there are no high-capacity public rail links directly to the airfield, the airport is well-integrated with the coastal road network, providing easy access to major hotels and the city\u2019s historic port districts. Several local and national car rental agencies maintain desks within the terminal area, and ample parking is provided for those arriving by private vehicle. Arriving travelers are encouraged to utilize the pre-paid taxi booths to ensure fixed and reliable fares to their final destinations.",
