  "connection_tips": "Connecting through Glacier Park International Airport (FCA), the primary gateway to Kalispell and Glacier National Park, is exceptionally straightforward due to its compact, single-terminal design. All gates, ranging from A1 to B6, are located within a short walking distance of each other on the upper level. For passengers on a single ticket, checked baggage is typically transferred automatically to the final destination. However, if you are traveling on separate tickets, you must collect your bags from the lower-level baggage claim area and re-check them at the airline ticket counters on the upper level before re-clearing TSA security.\n\nDespite its small size, the airport can become quite busy during the peak summer and winter holiday seasons. It is strongly recommended to arrive at least two hours before your scheduled departure during these periods to account for potential queues at the security checkpoint. Travelers should be aware that if they exit the secure airside area for any reason, they must undergo full TSA screening to re-enter. Helpful facilities include free Wi-Fi throughout the terminal and a small selection of local dining and retail options that reflect the Montana region.\n\nGround transportation is well-organized, with major rental car agencies located directly inside the terminal adjacent to the baggage claim. For those not renting a car, rideshare services like Uber and Lyft are available, with designated pickup zones clearly marked outside the arrivals area. If you require a taxi or a local hotel shuttle, it is highly advisable to book these services at least 24 hours in advance, as availability can be limited. For travelers connecting to the Amtrak Empire Builder train, the Whitefish station is approximately a 20-minute drive from the airport, while the West Glacier station is about 45 minutes away.",

  "terminal_info": "Glacier Park International Airport operates a terminal building serving northwest Montana and providing access to Glacier National Park. The terminal features check-in counters for regional carriers and charter operators with direct access to TSA security checkpoint that typically processes passengers in 15-25 minutes during peak summer tourist season and 8-15 minutes during winter months. Walking distance from check-in to gates is approximately 150 meters (3-5 minutes) through the mountain-themed terminal.\n\nSecurity screening follows standard TSA procedures with enhanced winter weather considerations for mountain operations. International flights are limited but customs facilities are available when needed. The terminal design accommodates seasonal tourist traffic to Glacier National Park with expanded services during summer months and reduced operations in winter due to harsh mountain conditions.\n\nTerminal amenities include restaurants featuring Montana cuisine, gift shops with Glacier National Park and local Montana products, car rental counters essential for park access, and comfortable seating areas with views of the Rocky Mountains. The terminal showcases Montana's natural heritage through park exhibits and local art. Accessibility features include elevators, accessible parking, accessible restrooms throughout, and wheelchair assistance services. Family facilities include nursing areas, family restrooms, and park-themed children's areas, serving as the primary aviation gateway to Glacier National Park and Montana's spectacular Crown of the Continent ecosystem.",
