Ahhh, Thanksgiving. A time to feast with family and close friends and celebrate what we’re most grateful for, but it’s a holiday that can also be an especially hectic time for those of us who need to fly to spend it with our loved ones. Yet, there’s no law that says your Turkey Day traditions have to include travel-related hassles. A cool head (not to mention a bit of planning ahead) can help you keep the worries and annoyances at bay while allowing you to focus on meaningful moments and the true spirit of the holiday.
No one can guarantee you’ll make it through Thanksgiving without getting a gravy stain on your favorite shirt or that you’ll enjoy your big family meal without sparking a heated political argument (probably with your cranky uncle). But if you follow these few simple tips, you’re sure to have some stress-free travel.
