  "connection_tips": "Pr\u00edncipe Airport (PCP) is the primary gateway to the island of Pr\u00edncipe in S\u00e3o Tom\u00e9 and Pr\u00edncipe. Ground transport is limited; there is NO organized public bus system serving the terminal. Taxis and private transfers are the most common mode of transport to the town of Santo Ant\u00f3nio (approx Pr\u00edncipe works best when the hotel or tour operator is already tracking the flight, because the island network is too small for an improvised airport transfer market.\n\n7km away). Pre-arranged transfers through your hotel are highly recommended but can be expensive (approx. \u20ac50). Local 'moto-taxis' (moto boys) are available outside the terminal for a more affordable, though less comfortable, ride to nearby guesthouses. Car rental agencies offer 4x4 vehicles, which are essential for exploring the island's rugged and lush interior.\n\nThe terminal is small and efficient, handling regular domestic flights from S\u00e3o Tom\u00e9 (TMS). Arrive 90 minutes early for domestic departures. Ensure you have cash (STN or EUR) That makes the airport feel more like a linked island gateway than a standalone passenger building, and the best arrivals are the ones that move straight from aircraft to vehicle. A hotel transfer or moto-taxi should be arranged before landing, because the island is too small for guessing.",

  "terminal_info": "Pr\u00edncipe Airport (PCP), designated by the ICAO as FPPR, is the primary aviation gateway to the island of Pr\u00edncipe, the smaller of the two main islands in S\u00e3o Tom\u00e9 and Pr\u00edncipe. The airport operates from a compact, 'cabin-sized' passenger terminal designed to handle domestic flights from the capital hub of S\u00e3o Tom\u00e9. It serves as a critical infrastructure link for the island, which is designated as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, reflecting its remote, tranquil, and environmentally sensitive character.\n\nThe terminal infrastructure is minimal and focused on essential services, providing a single hall that combines check-in, arrivals, and a sheltered waiting area. While the building lacks modern commercial amenities like retail shops or duty-free outlets, travelers can find a small kiosk offering bottled water, coffee, and light snacks. Baggage handling is informal, often involving manual delivery directly to the center of the hall for collection. Due to the small aircraft used for these routes, such as the Dornier 228, strict weight limits are typically enforced, often capped at 15kg for checked luggage.\n\nOperationally, the airport is situated approximately 2 miles (3 km) north of the island's capital, Santo Ant\u00f3nio, and functions strictly during daylight hours as the runway is not equipped with nighttime lighting. Ground transportation is informal, with visitors typically arranging pre-booked transfers through local luxury resorts or utilizing 'moto-taxis' for shorter trips. For independent travelers, 4x4 vehicle rentals are available but must be coordinated well in advance due to the island's very limited rental fleet.",
