What To Pack For Your Holiday
The last weekend in the month of December is the last weekend that’s loaded with holiday travel. Even if you don’t feel like traveling, it can be a stressful month to go anywhere since there’s more traveling around during the holidays than any other time of the year. For this reason, many bookending the holiday travel season are peak prices and super busy airports, resulting in a prolonged travel season. The biggest causes of holiday stress are what to wear in the airport, driving in the snow, and coming across family in unfamiliar towns.
But luckily there’s a few places that aren’t as busy as the rest. In some instances, these places have notoriously small, low-traffic airports and destinations that don’t feature commercial flights.
