  "connection_tips": "Canc\u00fan International Airport (CUN) is a sprawling, multi-terminal hub that serves as the premier gateway to Mexico's Caribbean coast. A critical connection tip for travelers is understanding that CUN operates four distinct terminals\u2014T1 for private/charter, T2 for domestic/regional, T3 for U. S./Europe, and T4 for a modern domestic/international mix\u2014and there is no airside connection between them. If your journey requires changing terminals, you must exit the building and take the free inter-terminal shuttle, which departs every 10\u201315 minutes during peak hours from outside each arrivals hall; the ride itself takes 15\u201320 minutes between the most distant points.\n\nBecause you must re-clear security at your next terminal, it is highly recommended to allow a minimum of 2. 5 to 3 hours for connections, especially when moving between international and domestic flights. For international arrivals, a major benefit in 2025 is the expansion of automated E-Gates in Terminals 3 and 4 for citizens of the USA, Canada, UK, and select European nations, which significantly reduces immigration wait times. However, residents of Mexico must still use traditional lanes. Once airside, passengers can access the Mera Business Lounges in Terminals 2, 3, and 4, while Terminal 4 also features a Plaza Premium Lounge.\n\nWithin the terminals, walking distances can be up to 15 minutes, particularly to some of the lower concourse bus gates in Terminal 2. Ground transportation into the Hotel Zone is best handled by authorized pre-paid taxis or ADO buses, which provide frequent links to central Canc\u00fan and Playa del Carmen. Always verify your departure terminal on your boarding pass, as CUN is exceptionally busy and a terminal error can lead to missed flights during peak morning and afternoon banks.",

  "terminal_info": "Canc\u00fan International spreads passengers across four terminals: Terminal 1 for seasonal/charter operations, Terminal 2 with two concourses (H for domestic/regional and M for international), Terminal 3 focused on U.S. and European carriers, and the modern Terminal 4 handling both domestic and long-haul international flights. Each terminal has separate check-in halls and security, and bus gates at Terminal 2 and 3 are common for regional routes. A free inter-terminal shuttle stops outside each arrivals curb every 10\u201315 minutes; the ride between the most distant terminals takes about 15\u201320 minutes, so allow extra time when changing buildings.\n\nWithin a terminal, walks are manageable: 5\u201310 minutes from security to most gates in Terminals 2 and 3, while Terminal 4\u2019s A/B concourses can take up to 15 minutes with some stairs or elevators down to bus positions. Landside transfers between terminals are also possible by taxi, but airside transfers are not available\u2014every change of terminal requires exiting and re-screening.\n\nSecurity checkpoint waits average 10\u201320 minutes outside of holiday peaks, though midday departures to the U.S. can push queues toward 30\u201340 minutes; priority and family lanes are signed at each terminal. Non-Mexican travelers typically complete immigration on arrival before baggage claim, and customs still uses the red/green light system for random inspections; agricultural items and large electronics may be pulled for additional screening.\n\nAmenities vary by terminal: duty-free corridors and caf\u00e9s line the departures levels, with Mera Business Lounges in Terminals 2, 3, and 4 plus a Plaza Premium Lounge and The Lounge by Global Lounge Network in Terminal 4. Terminal 3 and 4 have larger food courts and brand-name shops, while Terminal 2 offers convenience dining and currency exchange near the H gates. Free Wi\u2011Fi is available in Terminals 3 and 4, with paid options more common in Terminal 2.\n\nAll terminals provide ramps, elevators, and wheelchair assistance on request, and the inter-terminal shuttle accommodates passengers with reduced mobility. Baby-care and nursing rooms are signed near several gates in Terminals 3 and 4, and small children\u2019s play areas sit near the B concourse in Terminal 4; family restrooms and changing tables are distributed throughout arrivals and departures areas.",
