By Thanksgiving 2025, about 79.9 million Americans are expected to travel 50 miles or more. That includes 71.7 million who travel by car, while 5.84 million travel by plane — a record high for air travel on the holiday. The Tuesday and Wednesday before Thanksgiving, and the Sunday afterward, are prime travel days with heavy traffic and crowded airports across the country.

Daylight Saving Time (DST), also known as Daylight Saving Time, Daylight Time (United States, Canada, and Australia), or Daylight Saving Time (United Kingdom, European Union, and others), is the time when clocks are set forward. The process is (usually one hour) during the warmer months so that darkness falls at a later hour. A common implementation of DST is to move clocks forward one hour in late winter or spring ("spring forward") and set clocks back one hour in fall (North American English) ("fallback") or autumn ( UK English) back to standard time. As a result, there is a 23-hour day in early spring and a 25-hour day in mid-autumn.
