  "connection_tips": "Fascene Airport (NOS) is the real gateway to Nosy Be, but the most important connection decision is not inside the terminal. It is whether your arrival ends in Hell-Ville, at a beach resort on the main island, or at a smaller offshore island that still requires a road and boat handoff. That distinction matters because the airport can process domestic and international visitors competently, yet the island logistics afterward are very different depending on where you are actually staying.\n\nFor many travelers, the smartest move is to arrange the hotel transfer in advance. Airport taxis exist, but they can be expensive and variable, and they are rarely the best answer if you are already trying to connect to a resort boat departure or a lodge transfer from the wharf. If the stay is on Nosy Komba, Tsarabanjina, or another satellite island, the boat schedule should be treated as a separate segment and protected with real margin after the flight.\n\nUse NOS as the first step of a resort or island-transfer day, not as the whole solution. Keep health documents and cash ready, confirm the receiving driver or boat before departure, and leave more time than the map alone suggests if the journey continues beyond Hell-Ville. Fascene is efficient enough. The real risk is the land-and-sea handoff that starts once you leave the airport grounds.",
