Traveling For Thanksgiving?

Our family is staying put for Thanksgiving, celebrating the day with some other families locally. I have co-workers, though, who are flying to be with family or friends this week, and they are (rightly) concerned about delays and crowded airports. At one time this was known as the busiest week for air travel. And new rules and fees could perhaps make this the messiest week for travel.
- Here’s one article with helpful advice, including some things to know before you head to the airport. Always good to be prepared.
- For tech-savvy folks, another article with tips includes a link to airports offering free wi-fi for this holiday season. That’s pretty handy.
- And if you are a “foodie,” here’s the official TSA site, which can help you determine if that leftover cranberry sauce from Grandmother can be carried through airport security. Sorry, Granny.
- And finally, while I don’t endorse this approach to travel problems, here’s a rather humorous piece about one traveler’s solution to unexpected issues. Maybe it can work for you, too (tell me if it does!).
Reading through some of this info about travel preparation, I’m glad we’re not flying anywhere for Thanksgiving. If you have to fly, though, all the best to you!
