  "connection_tips": "Parsabad-Moghan Airport (PFQ) serves the border city of Parsabad in the Ardabil Province of Iran. It handles regular domestic flights to Tehran (THR) via regional carriers. Ground transport into the city center (approx. 5km away) is primarily via local taxis and specialized airport buses which meet every scheduled arrival.\n\nIt is standard practice to negotiate the fare upfront. A unique connection tip: Parsabad is located on the border with Azerbaijan; for those crossing the border, the international bridge is a short 15-minute taxi ride from the airport. The terminal is functional with basic passenger amenities Because Parsabad sits on the border, it is worth agreeing the taxi fare before departure so the transfer does not slow down the crossing or the Tehran-bound connection.\n\nArrive 2 hours early for domestic departures. Facilities include basic cafes and a waiting area. Ensure you have local currency (IRR) for transport The border-town role means the airport is best used with local currency and a fixed taxi fare, because crossing to Azerbaijan or staying in Parsabad changes the ground plan. A border taxi should already be booked, because the bridge crossing is the part that changes the day for Tehran or Azerbaijan-bound travel there too.",

  "terminal_info": "Parsabad-Moghan Airport (PFQ) is a regional aviation facility serving the city of Parsabad and the fertile Moghan Plain in the Ardabil Province of northern Iran. The airport operates from a single, functional passenger terminal building designed primarily to facilitate domestic travel and essential charter flights supporting the region's significant agricultural sector.

For dining, the facility houses an on-site restaurant and canteen that serves traditional Iranian refreshments and light meals synchronized with flight schedules.

Ground transportation to central Parsabad, located approximately 12 miles (20 km) to the southeast, is well-supported by local taxi services, providing a 25-minute link to the city's main districts and administrative centers. Due to its strategic position near the international border with Azerbaijan, the facility maintains strict security protocols and acts as a key technical stop for government-related missions.",
