Busy weekend expected at area airports as Thanksgiving travel begins

TSA officials say following these tips, especially when it comes to firearms, is key.

"TSA was formed right after 9/11. Our mission was to protect the country going forward across the entire transportation system," TSA Administrator David Pekoske said."We constantly look at the intelligence, the streaming to give us an indicator as to what groups can do or are planning to do with respect to any incident in the United States in the transportation system."

The agency says the three busiest days during the Thanksgiving travel period are Tuesday and Wednesday before the holiday and the Sunday following. Airports are also warning that parking may be in short supply, so it's best to reserve a spot ahead of time.
