Thanksgiving Travel Surge Crowds Oklahoma’s Major Airports
Oklahoma’s two largest airports — Will Rogers World Airport in Oklahoma City and Tulsa International Airport — are seeing major holiday crowds this week as Thanksgiving travel ramps up across the country.
Officials Urge Early Arrival and Prepared Travelers
Will Rogers spokesperson Stacey Hamm says travelers are already encountering full TSA lines, busy ticket counters, and heavy baggage volume. She recommends arriving at least two hours early, downloading your airline’s mobile app, and ensuring you have a valid state ID or passport ready.
Airports Following National Trend
The Transportation Security Administration expects one of the busiest Thanksgiving travel weeks in U.S. history. Oklahoma is seeing that surge as well, with peak days expected Tuesday, Wednesday, and the Sunday after Thanksgiving.
Passengers Encouraged to Check Flight Status
Airport officials remind travelers to monitor their airline apps or websites for delays, gate changes, and baggage updates, especially with storm systems moving through parts of the country.
