const GROUND_FAQS = [
  {
    q: "How far in advance should I book European high-speed trains?",
    a: "Two to three months out for the cheapest advance fares on TGV, Eurostar, and Frecciarossa. The lowest fares on Paris–Lyon and London–Paris can be €25–€40; the same seat day-of costs 5x–8x more. Advance fares are non-refundable, so book once your dates are locked. Regional and commuter trains don't have advance fares — walk up, no advance needed."
  },
  {
    q: "Is the JR Pass worth it for a Japan trip?",
    a: "It depends on your cities. Tokyo–Kyoto–Osaka: a 7-day pass pays off only if you add Hiroshima or another Shinkansen leg. Tokyo–Kyoto alone: point-to-point is cheaper. The pass math tips in your favor when you add Nozomi-eligible routes, but note that Nozomi is not JR Pass valid — so factor in that you'll ride the slightly slower Hikari. Run your actual itinerary through a fare calculator before buying."
  },
  {
    q: "Do I need an International Driving Permit to rent a car abroad?",
    a: "In most of Europe: no. In Greece, Italy, Japan, New Zealand, Australia, and several others: yes. An IDP is a translation of your home license — you need your home license too. Get it from AAA before you leave; it costs $20 and takes 15 minutes. Some rental companies will let you drive without one, but if you're involved in an accident without the required IDP, your coverage could be void."
  },
  {
    q: "What's the best way to get from the airport to the city center?",
    a: "Nine times out of ten: the dedicated airport rail link. CDG to Paris Gare du Nord is 25 minutes on the RER B; Heathrow Express to Paddington is 15 minutes; Narita Express to Tokyo is 53 minutes. Pre-booked car transfers make sense when you have 3+ bags, arrive very late, or the taxi rank is known to be opportunistic (CDG, Naples). Rideshare from airport is often blocked to a designated pickup zone — add 10–15 minutes for the walk."
  },
  {
    q: "When does a long-distance bus beat the train?",
    a: "When the train is 3x–5x more expensive and the time difference is under 90 minutes. Berlin–Prague by FlixBus is €8–€20 and about 4.5 hours; the train is €35–€80 for the same journey time. The bus loses when you're crossing 4+ hours — fatigue compounds and the seat quality gap matters. Book 2–3 weeks out for the cheapest FlixBus fares; last-minute bus tickets are rarely discounted."
  },
  {
    q: "Which rideshare apps work internationally?",
    a: "Uber: 70+ countries, but absent in Japan, most of Germany, Hungary, and much of Southeast Asia. Bolt: dominant in Eastern Europe, many African cities, and parts of SE Asia. Grab: Southeast Asia standard — Thailand, Singapore, Vietnam, Indonesia. DiDi: China and parts of Latin America. Ola: India and Australia. Always download before you land and verify it works in your specific city — national availability doesn't mean city availability."
  },
  {
    q: "Are sleeper trains actually comfortable enough to replace a night in a hotel?",
    a: "Private cabin: yes, usually. Couchette bunk: depends on your ability to sleep on trains. Modern Nightjet cabins (Austria/DB network) are clean, quiet, and include breakfast — genuinely replaces a budget hotel night and saves a daytime travel day. The Scottish Caledonian Sleeper private cabin with dinner is a proper experience. Shared couchettes on older stock (some Balkan routes) are functional but basic. Always book the private cabin if you're traveling as a couple; the upcharge is usually €40–€60."
