As Thanksgiving approaches, Sacramento International Airport is bracing for a bustling holiday travel week. With an expected 25,000 passengers flying in and out daily, the airport team is pulling out all the stops to ensure a smooth experience. Scott Johnston, the airport spokesperson, has likened this week to their very own Super Bowl—it’s all hands on deck!
Travelers should prepare for long lines not only at security but also at the concessions, so arriving early is essential. Parking has been filling up quickly, which means those hoping to drive may need to use the economy lot and catch a shuttle to the terminal. The airport is in the midst of some construction, including a new parking garage, but operators assure that this won’t disrupt airport operations.
With the busiest travel day last year being the Monday after Thanksgiving, it’s clear this week is about to get hectic. So, whether you’re heading out to see loved ones or just grabbing a bite, your best bet is to plan your trip wisely. Remember, getting through the airport might be a bit of a marathon, but the turkey at the other end will make it all worthwhile!
