Thanksgiving

Today is a federal holiday in the U.S. Find information about Thanksgiving at History.com. Nearly all government offices, businesses, schools, and other organizations are closed today. Today is part of one of the busiest travel periods in the year. AAA predicts that travel will be the highest volume in a dozen years. It expects 51 million travelers to journey 50 miles or more from home (up 3.3% increase over last year). The increase is because of a strong economy and labor market, “fueling a strong year for the travel industry.”
