Years ago, I got in the habit of traveling ON THANKSGIVING DAY. Much less traveling, more seats on the planes, less time at the airport. Worst case is we get our turkey on Saturday.

Never travel during holidays if you can help it. Even during the slowest times of the year airports stress me the hell out. Too many what ifs. That security line is insane.

I remember lines like that at the Denver airport on ordinary days.

We have TSA Pre-Check. Problem is, nowadays, so does everyone else.

I haven’t flown since I retired several years ago, and have absolutely no desire to ever fly again. If I have to go any distance I will drive myself or take the train.

I have a NEXUS card which allows a holder to pass easily and quickly over the US/Canada border.It also features TSA Pre Check,which is very handy at airports.

I can’t even imagine facing holiday air travel right now. If we can’t drive we don’t go.

I drive everywhere. I don’t care if it takes me two or three days.

I just don’t travel the day before Thanksgiving.
Long life of experience on this day.
Whether I drive, take a bus, a train, a ship or plane, this Wednesday is always going to be its own special hell on Earth.

I said “no” to flying after heightened security after 9/11. Do I look Arabic? No. Yet everyone was treated as a potential terrorist.
Then there was covid. Pilots retired rather than get the shot and flights were delayed and cancelled. I never got the shot and would not want to wear a mask, so who knows how I would be treated? Flying commercial has no appeal. Relatives die and I don’t go to funerals. Sorry, but I don’t like driving long distances as much now as in the past, and I’m not flying.
Flying has even less appeal than going to Disneyworld.

9am this morning At Denver International the missus and I strolled through TSA Pre-Check with the only delay being they pulled my bag to inspect the chocolate chips I was carrying home.
No delays on flight to Las Vegas, and no delay on connecting flight to Bellingham Washington. Both planes only 85% capacity.
