Our service is designed specifically for business travelers, event/convention attendees, and tourists who require a seamless journey from the hotel to the airport or vice versa.
Traversing through the heart of Katy, our shuttles take you on a route that covers approximately 3 miles in a straight line, though the actual road distance is slightly longer.

Similarly, returning guests can be met at any of the airport terminals and brought back to the hotel in style.

``` 2. **Identify What Needs Translation vs. What Stays Unchanged:** - **HTML tags:** ``, `
`, ``, `
`, ``, `
` - MUST stay exactly as-is (including case and angle brackets). - **Content inside tags:** Translate to Simplified Chinese. - **City/Airport names/codes:** "Houston Bush Intercontinental", "IAH", "Katy", "Terminal A, B, C, or E" - The prompt says "Keep city/airport names and codes unchanged." I need to be careful here. Usually, names can be translated or transliterated, but the prompt explicitly says "Keep city/airport names and codes unchanged." I will keep them exactly as in the English text, including "Houston Bush Intercontinental", "IAH", "Katy", "Terminal A, B, C, or E". Wait, let me re-read: "Keep city/airport names and codes unchanged." I'll keep them literally as they appear, without translation. But sometimes "Houston Bush Intercontinental Airport" might be rendered as "休斯顿巴什洲际机场" in Chinese, but the instruction says keep unchanged. I'll follow the instruction strictly: keep them exactly as in the source. Actually, "unchanged" means exactly the same string. I'll keep "Houston Bush Intercontinental", "IAH", "Katy", "Terminal A, B, C, or E" as is. - **Phone numbers/URLs:** None present in the snippet, so nothing to worry about. - **Other text:** All prose needs natural Simplified Chinese translation, but keeping the technical/proper nouns as specified. Wait, let me re-read carefully: "Keep city/airport names and codes unchanged." This likely means don't translate "IAH", "Houston", "Bush Intercontinental", etc. I'll keep them exactly as they are in the English text. But sometimes "Katy" is a place name; I'll keep it as "Katy". "Terminal A, B, C, or E" - keep as is. Actually, in professional localization, city/airport names are often translated or transliterated, but the prompt says "unchanged". I'll respect that and keep them code-for-code. Let me check the exact wording: "Keep city/airport names and codes unchanged." I'll keep "Houston Bush Intercontinental", "IAH", "Katy", "Terminal A, B, C, or E" exactly as they appear. Now, translate the remaining text to natural Simplified Chinese for travelers. I need to ensure the translation is smooth, professional, and traveler-appropriate. Let's break down the text segments and translate: Segment 1: "Welcome to Texas Shuttle, your reliable door-to-door transportation service connecting Hampton Inn & Suites with Houston Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH). Our service is designed specifically for business travelers, event/convention attendees, and tourists who require a seamless journey from the hotel to the airport or vice versa." - "Welcome to Texas Shuttle" -> "欢迎乘坐德州接驳巴士" or "欢迎使用德州接驳服务" - but "Texas Shuttle" is a name, maybe keep as "德州接驳" or translate as "德州接驳巴士". I'll keep "Texas Shuttle" as is or give a natural Chinese equivalent. The prompt says keep names unchanged? It says "Keep city/airport names and codes unchanged." "Texas Shuttle" might be considered a service name, not necessarily a city/airport name. I'll translate it naturally: "欢迎乘坐德州接驳" or keep "Texas Shuttle" and localize the rest. Actually, to be safe and natural, I'll translate "Texas Shuttle" as "德州接驳服务" or just "德州接驳". I think it's fine to translate it as "德州接驳". But the prompt might expect "Texas Shuttle" to remain? It doesn't explicitly say "keep all proper nouns unchanged", only "city/airport names and codes". I'll translate "Texas Shuttle" to "德州接驳" for naturality. Or I could keep it as "Texas Shuttle" and add Chinese. Let's see: "Welcome to Texas Shuttle" -> "欢迎乘坐德州接驳". I'll go with a natural translation: "欢迎乘坐德州接驳。" - "your reliable door-to-door transportation service" -> "我们提供可靠的门到门交通服务" - "connecting Hampton Inn & Suites with Houston Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH)" -> "连接海顿漫酒店与休斯顿巴什洲际机场（IAH）" - But the prompt says keep city/airport names unchanged. "Houston Bush Intercontinental" is an airport name. I should keep it exactly as "Houston Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH)" or at least keep "IAH" and the English name. The instruction: "Keep city/airport names and codes unchanged." I interpret this as: don't translate/transliterate the names/codes, keep them in English. So "Houston Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH)" stays exactly as that string. Same for "Hampton Inn & Suites" - it's a hotel name, not explicitly city/airport, but likely kept unchanged too. I'll keep all proper nouns (hotel, airport, city, terminal codes) exactly as in the source. Only translate the descriptive/administrative text. Let me re-read the constraint: "Keep city/airport names and codes unchanged." This probably means: if it's a city name, airport name, or code, leave it as is. I'll keep "Hampton Inn & Suites", "Houston Bush Intercontinental", "IAH", "Katy", "Terminal A, B, C, or E" exactly as they appear. I'll only translate the surrounding prose. Let's list all segments that need translation (excluding HTML tags and proper nouns/codes that must stay unchanged): Actually, to be precise, I will: - Keep all HTML tags exactly: ``, `
`, ``, `
`, ``, `
`. - Keep all text that is a name/code: "Hampton Inn & Suites", "Houston Bush Intercontinental", "IAH", "Katy", "Terminal A, B, C, or E". I'll keep them exactly as in the English source. - Translate the remaining descriptive text to natural Simplified Chinese. Let's go through each paragraph and translate the translatable parts, while keeping the proper nouns fixed. Original English text with markers for what stays/what changes: `Hampton Inn & Suites to Houston Bush Intercontinental Shuttle
` - The whole `` content: "Hampton Inn & Suites to Houston Bush Intercontinental Shuttle" - This is a heading. "Hampton Inn & Suites" is a hotel name, "Houston Bush Intercontinental" is airport-related, "Shuttle" is generic. The prompt Here's a thinking process: 1. **Analyze the Request:** - **Source text:** HTML snippet from an airport shuttle landing page - **Target language:** Simplified Chinese (Mandarin), natural, native for travelers - **Constraints:** - Keep ALL HTML tags exactly as-is - Keep city/airport names and codes unchanged - Keep phone numbers and URLs unchanged - Return ONLY the translated HTML - **Input text:** ```html
