Millions Face Holiday Travel Trouble

The TSA says more than 1.5 million people were screened at airport checkpoints on Christmas.

Millions of Americans are traveling back from the Christmas holiday. The past few days have already proven to be a handful.  

Traveler Merridee Evans said, "the lines were insane. There's no other word for it. I've never seen it pretty much wrapped around the whole floor."

The TSA says more than 1.5 million people were screened at airport checkpoints on Christmas. That is up from last year, but still nowhere close to pre-pandemic levels.   AAA expects more than 109 million people will travel between December 23rd and January 2nd.
