More People Will Fly This Thanksgiving, But Airlines Expect Manageable Lines

More People Will Fly This Thanksgiving, But Airlines Expect Manageable Lines

November 25, 2016 By madison Leave a Comment

Airlines expect a 2.5 percent increase in air travel over the Thanksgiving holiday this year compared to last year. The nation’s leading airlines are confident they can handle higher Thanksgiving travel this year partly because more people have signed up for quick-screening programs that are designed to keep airport security lines moving. For Thanksgiving travelers, the airline group expects the busiest travel days to be the Wednesday before and the Sunday and Monday after the holiday.

Key Takeaways:

  • American Airlines said that more than 70,000 passengers missed flights in the first five months of the year due to long lines.
  • For Thanksgiving travelers, the airline group expects the busiest travel days to be the Wednesday before and the Sunday and Monday after the holiday.
  • In the first nine months of this year, the top nine carriers reported a combined pretax profit of $18.3 billion, down from $18.7 billion in the same period last year.
