Travel to the United States hit a pandemic high before the Thanksgiving party

The week leading up to this Thanksgiving has been the busiest for airports since the coronavirus pandemic began, and so far travel has gone smoothly.

For seven days in a row, until Wednesday, the daily passenger volume at the airport exceeded two million people, a number not seen since before the pandemic, according to the Transportation Security Administration. US airports are busy with over 2.3 million people on Wednesday – the busiest day since February 2020. Sunday is expected to be even busier, TSA officials have said.
