Question 3

Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) offers Terminal Parking, Express Parking for quick curb access, and Economy/Long-Term lots with shuttle service; prices vary by lot and season.

For trips from Miami International Airport (MIA) to Fort Lauderdale, expect 30–60 minutes by car depending on traffic; many travelers use rental cars or intercity shuttle services.

Question 11
