Re: Visa Resource Center Schema

I wish plural would be easier ... well, it may not be what you expect, but
this validates:

<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context":"http://schema.org",
  "@type":"TravelAction",
  "fromLocation": "USA",
  "toLocation": "Costa Rica",
  "name": "Travel from USA to Costa Rica",
   "instrument": {
"@type": "ItemList",
    "numberOfItems": 3,
    "itemListElement": [
      {
        "@type": "ListItem",
        "position": 1,
        "item": {
          "name": "A Valid Passport"
        }
      },
      {
        "@type": "ListItem",
        "position": 2,
        "item": {
          "name": "Pre-paid airline or bus ticket to exit Costa Rica"
        }
      },
      {
        "@type": "ListItem",
        "position": 3,
        "item": {
          "name": "$100.00US dollars per every 30 calendar days you plan to
stay in Costa Rica"
        }
    }
]},
    "distance":"2000 miles"
        }
        }
</script>
