Thanksgiving weekend is coming to a close. The Sunday after Thanksgiving is the busiest travel day for U.S. airports.
“Especially with the travel how it’s been lately, I’ve been arriving 1.5 - 2 hours early for my flights,” said traveler Roberto Barajas.“I usually try to be earlier than most because you never really know,” said traveler Heidi Kang
TSA says in 2019 and 2021, the Sunday after Thanksgiving was the busiest day of the year. Last year, for every 100 people who flew on Thanksgiving day, there were 177 flying out the Sunday after. “We walked up here, and it was packed like a school of fish, and I was like, this is going to take forever,” said traveler Dwadis Eubanks.“Long lines, a lot of waiting, but this honestly doesn’t seem that bad. So hopefully there’s no delays for my flights,” said traveler Kayla.“It’s not very crowded at all, and I was expecting delays," said traveler Denise.
And after a beautiful weekend in San Diego, some travelers are already checking flight prices for the next holiday.
