  "connection_tips": "Connecting to and from Mangrove Cay (MAY) primarily involves short regional hops from Lynden Pindling International Airport (NAS) in Nassau. For those arriving via private charter, the process is even faster, as you can bypass the main commercial terminal in Nassau. Taxis are the primary way to explore the island and reach the ferry dock at Moxey Town, which connects Mangrove Cay to the southern part of Andros Island across the Middle Bight. Always verify your flight status with your carrier, as regional schedules in the Bahamas are often subject to adjustments based on weather conditions.\n\nCarriers like Flamingo Air and LeAir operate daily scheduled flights that take approximately 20 minutes; these are the most reliable links to the main island of Andros. Ground transportation on Mangrove Cay is largely handled by local independent taxi drivers who meet scheduled arrivals. When traveling by road, always allow extra time to enjoy the scenic vistas along the Queen's Highway.\n\nIf you are arriving on an international flight at NAS, ensure you allow at least 2.5 hours for immigration, baggage collection, and a terminal transfer to the domestic wing for your flight to MAY. Most of the island's major fishing lodges provide pre-arranged complimentary airport pickups for their guests, so always coordinate your arrival with your host in advance. Be prepared with Bahamian Dollars (BSD) or US Dollars (USD) for taxi fares and local expenses, as credit cards are not widely accepted outside the major lodges.",

  "terminal_info": "Mangrove Cay Airport (MAY), also known as Clarence A. Bain Airport, is one of the small but important airports serving Andros in the Bahamas, an island chain where domestic flying is often more practical than road-and-boat combinations. The airport's main significance lies in access to central Andros fishing lodges, island communities, and eco-tourism areas rather than in passenger volume. It is the kind of airport where the runway and location matter far more than the size of the terminal building.\n\nThe terminal is correspondingly light and informal. Travelers should expect a small regional-airport setup with basic check-in and waiting space, quick movement from aircraft to curb, and only minimal passenger services. Airports like MAY are built around short domestic hops and private or lodge-linked arrivals, so the emphasis is on practical turnover instead of retail or lounge comforts. The atmosphere is relaxed and unmistakably island-based, with most passengers heading straight into pre-arranged local transport.\n\nWhat makes MAY distinctive is its role as a gateway to Andros's flats fishing and creek systems. Many arriving travelers are going directly to bonefishing lodges or remote accommodation rather than to a large town center, and that shapes the whole airport experience. The terminal therefore feels less like a destination in itself and more like a fast handoff point into one of the Bahamas' most nature-oriented islands.",
