Again, no surprises there.
The most actionable of A4A's forecast may be the most and least busy travel days. The busiest days, as you'd expect, will be as follows:
- Sunday, November 30
- Monday, December 1
- Wednesday, November 26
And the least busy days:
- Thursday, November 27 (Thanksgiving)
- Friday, November 28
So, if a comfortable, low-stress travel experience is a priority, book away from the heaviest travel days. Otherwise, be prepared for long lines and full flights. Just like last year.
