  "terminal_info": "Saipan International Airport is the main gateway to the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands and the airport that matters for most visitors arriving in Saipan. It handles the island's international traffic as well as onward commuter links deeper into the CNMI.\n\nCompared with larger Asian hubs, the airport is straightforward, but it is important enough to have immigration, customs, rental cars, and onward island connections. Many travelers use it for resort stays, diving trips, and transfers to Rota or Tinian.\n\nGround transport planning matters because Saipan does not have a normal big-city public transport network, making rental cars or pre-arranged hotel shuttles the most practical options for travelers. Several major car rental agencies operate booths within the arrivals area, but availability can be limited during peak holiday seasons, so early booking is highly recommended. For those not driving, many of the island's larger resorts in Garapan and San Antonio provide dedicated airport pick-up services that should be coordinated well in advance of your flight's arrival.\n\nSPN matters because it is the CNMI transfer point as well as Saipan's gateway, so cars, shuttles, and any onward commuter details are best arranged before you land.",
