Expect busy airports and roads this holiday; AAA seeing highest travel numbers in almost two decades

"Well, I think you're gonna see a lot of momentum building off of what we saw during Thanksgiving, which is very busy roads and very busy airports," AAA spokesperson Mark Jenkins said. Thanksgiving pulled huge travel numbers, and AAA expects that trend to continue through Christmas and the New Year. "Last Thanksgiving, we saw a really big rebound and travel numbers coming out of the pandemic. We're seeing some of the highest travel numbers that we've really seen in almost two decades," Jenkins said. "So chances are that momentum is likely to continue through the rest of the month."
