According to an airlines industry survey, it is expected that air travel will continue to weaken during the holiday season. However, it is likely that it won’t be as bad as it was thought to be at Thanksgiving or even last year at this time.
A projection by the Air Transport Association of America said that 41 million passengers are expected to travel on U.S. carriers during the 21-day winter holiday that starts Thursday. Although it may seem like a large number, it is in fact 2.4% less than the 42 million who flew during the same period last year.

This might distract your mind and keep you busy for some time. Thus go on, and find a kid and play.
