I clearly haven't been flying for a some time. SVQ and SVA are just half a world apart and the challenges of landing/taking off quite different. Pic of SVA (not personally taken of course ;-))
But yes, SVQ is one of these KL destinations flown with Transavia which you can take as a connecting KL flight in Amsterdam. For all clarity, this was about solving some confusion of 2 mystery airports ago and MichielR is to upload the next mystery airport.

PS Orly doesn't make sense with all these long-range jets there from Europe. It has to be a place where Avianca Colombia and all these European carriers fly to, including Air India....so JFK or a West coast major airport makes most sense. Let's bet first on JFK.

Hmm there are a few places that use these bus-train hybrids. HKG and IAD for example. But those tracks/roads look somewhat different (Not flat) having guide rails of some sort. The Heathrow automatic pods seem autonomous pods using semi-regular road infrastructure but have a different front view.

Even with the wiki-cheat page I can't figure out this one. Need to look for a tunnel without a train, I guess.

Because you did not use the right wiki page - it is not a classic people mover, the ones show in Wiki's always have rails. And this one is not automated - we had a driver ;-). It was almost like the large golf carts on Ko Samui transporting people, but here obviously on some major airport. Photo of traffic from the other side...

...somewhat. It is not a tunnel but a long connecting corridor. With golf carts. But where?

I see, I need to give a few more clues. On the first pic you see some writing on the right wall. This should help figuring out the continent if not the country. Further: this airport was not on the people mover Wiki page.

The windows panes look like PEK & I guess your clue might have to do with Chinese characters if I could recognize them as such...
