  "terminal_info": "Tsewi Airport is a remote Papua New Guinea village airstrip with very limited ground infrastructure. Its role is practical local access for people, cargo, and emergency movement in terrain where road travel is unreliable or absent. The airport exists to support a village that depends on air access for daily practicality and emergency connectivity.\n\nBecause the setting is remote, the passenger experience is extremely simple and centered on the runway rather than on terminal amenities. Travelers should expect a basic field where aircraft timing and weather are the most important variables. That makes the airport a small but essential access point.\n\nFor the village and surrounding area, the airport matters because it keeps people connected to medical care, supplies, and the broader Papua New Guinea network. Its terminal is tiny, but the link it provides is significant for local life. In this context, the airport is a very modest but important lifeline.",
