  "connection_tips": "Urmia Airport is a proper regional airport in northwestern Iran, with a long paved runway and scheduled service that matters to the city and to the broader West Azerbaijan Province. The airport works as a city gateway, not just a local strip, so the connection advice should reflect a real passenger flow and a real transfer into Urmia itself.\n\nThat means the practical questions are how you are getting from the terminal into the city and how much margin you need for the surrounding traffic. The airport sits in a region where winter conditions, route choices, and border-area travel can all matter, so it is smart to keep the ground transport simple and pre-planned. A taxi or arranged car is usually the cleanest move.\n\nIf your trip continues toward Lake Urmia, a provincial office, or a business appointment, the airport should be treated as a normal regional arrival point with decent runway capacity and a straightforward road connection. OMH works best when the rest of the route is already known. If you are connecting to Lake Urmia or the Turkish border corridor, keep the road transfer calm and direct. If winter or border traffic is in play, keep the road transfer booked before you leave the terminal.",

  "terminal_info": "Urmia Shahid Bakeri International Airport (OMH) is the primary air gateway for the West Azerbaijan province in northwest Iran, located approximately 9 miles (15 km) north of the city center. The airport operates with a single, functional terminal building that has recently been upgraded to increase its capacity to over 1 million passengers annually. It serves as a key domestic hub with limited international connections to regional cities like Istanbul and Erbil.\n\nThe terminal infrastructure provides essential passenger services, including standard check-in counters, a baggage claim area, and on-site currency exchange facilities. For connectivity, travelers can purchase local SIM cards from major Iranian operators directly within the terminal. While the dining and retail options are minimal, featuring a few coffee shops and small outlets for basic needs, the airport has implemented digital flight information systems to improve the overall passenger experience.\n\nTransportation to and from the airport is well-supported by official airport taxis, with the journey to central Urmia typically taking 20 to 30 minutes. Private transfers and car rentals can also be arranged through dedicated desks inside the terminal, and affordable, though less frequent, bus routes are available for budget-conscious travelers. The airport's proximity to Lake Urmia, just 12 miles away, makes it a convenient starting point for sightseeing in the region.",
