  "connection_tips": "Licenciado Gustavo D\u00edaz Ordaz International Airport (PVR) is exceptionally well-connected to the Puerto Vallarta resort areas. Efficient public buses (marked 'Centro' or 'Marina') stop on the main road outside arrivals and reach downtown for just $10-15 MXN. Official 'Zone-based' taxis have counters inside the terminal; fares to the Marina are roughly $250 MXN and to the Romantic Zone approx.\n\nThe airports curbside is built for exactly that resort flow, with taxis and hotel vans moving people into the bayside hotel zone, the Marina Vallarta area, and the south shore. In high season, the airport is mostly a logistics engine for the beach corridor. The transfer is short enough that the airport nearly disappears behind the resort arrival.\n\nThe airports role is to move visitors from the plane into the resort corridor with as little friction as possible, so the ground transport side is deliberately simple and efficient. That is exactly what a beach gateway should do. The airport is configured around that hotel-zone handoff, so the curbside works smoothly even in peak tourism season. The official taxi counters and the bus stops outside arrivals are the practical way to reach the Marina, hotel zone, or Romantic Zone without relying on unofficial curbside offers.",

  "terminal_info": "Licenciado Gustavo D\u00edaz Ordaz International Airport (PVR) is the primary aviation hub serving Puerto Vallarta and the Riviera Nayarit, located approximately 5 miles (8 km) north of the city center. The airport operates from a single, large passenger terminal building that is strategically divided into Hall A, which handles domestic traffic within Mexico, and Hall B, which serves as the main international concourse. It acts as a critical infrastructure hub, connecting the world-class Pacific resorts to major cities in North America and Europe via carriers such as Aerom\u00e9xico, American Airlines, and Delta.\n\nThe terminal infrastructure provides a wide range of essential amenities across its two main levels, featuring diverse dining options such as Bubba Gump Shrimp Co., Starbucks, and various local Mexican bistros. Travelers in the international departures area have access to extensive Dufry duty-free shops and premium VIP lounges for an exclusive waiting environment, while the arrivals hall on the ground floor houses multiple ATMs, currency exchange bureaus, and car rental desks. The facility is fully accessible and offers free high-speed Wi-Fi throughout the building, featuring modernized security screening points designed to handle high passenger volumes during peak holiday periods.\n\nGround transportation at PVR is well-supported by official authorized taxi booths located inside the arrivals hall, where it is standard practice to purchase pre-paid tickets to ensure set tourist rates to local hotels. A highly important tip for arriving passengers is to walk directly through the 'Shark Tank' area\u2014a room filled with timeshare salesmen located just before the final exit\u2014without stopping unless they have a pre-arranged meeting point there. For budget-conscious travelers, a pedestrian bridge leads directly to the main highway where local city buses provide regular links to the Malec\u00f3n and hotel zones, providing a streamlined experience for those exploring the scenic Banderas Bay.",
