  "connection_tips": "Valencia Airport (VLC), also known as Manises Airport, is a compact single-terminal facility located just 8 kilometers west of the city center. Security wait times typically range from 10 to 20 minutes, though arriving two hours early is recommended during peak morning and holiday periods. For those with long layovers, the 'Sala VIP Joan Olivert' lounge near Gate 12 offers a comfortable space with snacks and showers. Note that there are no luggage lockers at the airport, so travelers wishing to explore the city should use third-party storage services near the main train stations.\n\nIf you are self-transferring on separate tickets with checked luggage, you must exit to the arrivals hall on Level 0 to collect your bags and then proceed to the check-in counters on Level 1 before re-clearing security. Navigating connections here is generally straightforward as all gates (1-20) are housed within the same building. For intra-Schengen transfers, a window of 45 to 60 minutes is usually sufficient, while connections involving non-Schengen destinations (typically Gates 13-20) require passing through passport control; allow at least 90 minutes for these moves.\n\nTaxis are available 24/7 outside the arrivals area, with a typical 15-minute ride to the center costing between \u20ac20 and \u20ac30. Ground transportation is highly efficient, with Metro Lines 3 and 5 departing directly from the airport's basement level. A journey to the historic city center (X\u00e0tiva or Col\u00f3n stations) takes approximately 20 to 25 minutes and costs roughly \u20ac5. 00, including the airport supplement.",

  "terminal_info": "Valencia Airport features a single main terminal building with attached regional satellite for domestic flights, all connected airside via moving walkways. The terminal spans three levels: Level 0 for arrivals and baggage claim, Level 1 for departures with check-in counters, and Level 2 for boarding gates and commercial areas. Clear separation exists between Schengen and Non-Schengen areas post-security. The airport handles approximately 7 million passengers annually with 38 boarding gates total.\n\nWalking distances are moderate: check-in to gates typically 8-12 minutes, maximum gate-to-gate connections 15 minutes including security re-screening if required. Security processing averages 15-25 minutes during peak hours. Immigration for non-EU passengers adds 10-30 minutes depending on traffic.\n\nPost-security areas feature restaurants, bars, duty-free shopping, and VIP lounges. The airport offers excellent ground transportation with Metro lines 3 and 5 providing direct connections to Valencia city center in 20-25 minutes. Free WiFi throughout, plus charging stations, currency exchange, and car rental facilities.",
