It’s hard to find tickets for the Thanksgiving holiday. Experts: Book tickets as early as possible. Affected by the reduction of flights by American Airlines, it is difficult to find domestic tickets for Thanksgiving this year, and ticket prices may rise easily but not fall. Experts remind that travelers who want to fly with their families during Thanksgiving should book their tickets as soon as possible. Bryan, an analyst at Priceline.com, a website that bids for air tickets and hotels, said that there are still seven weeks until Thanksgiving on November 22, but holiday ticket prices on airlines across the United States have increased by 2.9%, and tickets for connecting flights in Detroit have also increased by 1%. The average round-trip fare to Detroit is $362, but some routes are more expensive. According to travel information website Travelzoo.com, the travel holidays with the cheapest air tickets are November 13-16, 22-23 and 28-29. The most expensive dates are November 21st and 24th~24th. In addition, experts remind travelers to pay attention to baggage fees, which can sometimes increase travel costs by hundreds of dollars. Southwest Airlines still doesn’t charge baggage fees. If you are a Delta SkyMiles American Express cardholder, your first checked bag is free. However, budget carriers Spirit and Allegiant currently charge fees for checked and carry-on bags. According to statistics from the American Automobile Association of Michigan, about 1.3 million Michigan residents traveled during the Thanksgiving holiday last year, 90% of whom traveled by public transportation, 8% by plane, and the remainder by train, car, and ship. According to statistics from the Federal Transportation Agency, American Airlines performed well during last year's Thanksgiving holiday, with a record 85.7% of flights arriving on time. Only on Tuesday, the on-time rate dropped to 78%. What will Thanksgiving look like this year? That depends on airline mergers, labor issues at American Airlines and the unpredictable weather in November.
