Furthermore, a substantial 68% of holiday travelers anticipate taking at least one flight during the festive season.
For those contemplating flights during Thanksgiving week, it’s worth noting that the busiest travel days are expected to be Tuesday, Wednesday, and Sunday. Travelers may benefit from booking flights on Sunday or Monday before Thanksgiving and Saturday after the holiday to avoid the peak airport crowds.In contrast, the survey suggests a more staggered approach to Christmas travel planning among Floridians. Only 12% have confirmed their Christmas travel plans so far.
