INDIANA—AAA estimates that this Thanksgiving travel period will be the busiest on record, with more than 31 million passengers in the skies.
The busiest days to fly will be Wednesday, November 27, and Sunday, December 1 — with more than 3 million passengers expected daily. The FAA said it might need to slow down air traffic due to air traffic controller staffing shortages, particularly in the Northeast.
The weather may also cause more delays as the FAA monitors two storms in the US this week. The first is located in the greater Upper Midwest and could bring showers to Illinois, Iowa, Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota.
A second storm in the central US will move into the Eastern region by Thanksgiving Day and may even damper Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.
