The TSA predicted Sunday would be on par with the Sunday after Thanksgiving in 2019 – which was the busiest day in TSA history.
For Paul and Victoria Vestuto, it's the first time they've traveled together for the holidays since 2019. "If we get stuck, we're here. If we get stuck we'll just find a sports bar," said Paul Vestuto. Travelers stand in line at a security checkpoint before boarding their flights the day before Thanksgiving, Wednesday, Nov. 23, 2022, at Logan International Airport in Boston.
Most Americans traveled by car on Sunday. In the Northeast, drivers were forced to dodge rain as they returned home. AAA said this year was the third-busiest ever for Thanksgiving travel on the road. "We're anticipating a very busy holiday season for travelers but also a very busy 2023 for travel," said Doug Shupe of AAA. "They're ready to go, and they're spending more money on vacations," Shupe said."They're traveling to farther distances."
While many people are returning home today- travel has changed since the pandemic. More Americans now work remotely. AAA expects return travel to continue this week.
