Last Minute Thanksgiving Airport Travel Tips


Long Island's Premiere Limousine Service
P: (631) 587-8500
Thanksgiving Eve, not only a popular party night but also one of the busiest travel days of the year. This year, Airlines for America estimates 2.55 million US airline passengers will be taking flight in preparation for tomorrow’s holiday. 

If you’re one of today’s last minute airline travelers, here’s what you need to know before you go.

Allow for extra time.
“Due to the increased number of travelers during the upcoming holiday, allow extra time for check-in and security at LGA Airport.” As per LaGuardia’s website, be sure to arrive at least 2 hours prior to your departure time when flying within the US. The same holds true for all New York Airports - an influx of people can result in longer security lines. You don’t want to miss your flight before your favorite feast of the year do you?

Stay connected.
Pro tip: Follow your airline and airport on social media for real time updates! Twitter and other airline specific apps play a huge role in helping customers stay in the know about delays or flight changes. Before you even leave for the airport, take a look at any and all social channels and sign up for Port Authority Airline Alerts to your phone or email, here.
