An estimated 228,000 travelers are expected to flow through Los Angeles International Airport Sunday as the busy Thanksgiving getaway period draws to a close.
LAX officials said a total of 2.5 million passengers were expected during the period that began Nov. 16 and ends Sunday. That's just below the number that used the airport during the 2019 Thanksgiving period, prior to the pandemic.
About 223,000 of those passengers were estimated to have come through LAX on Wednesday, one of the busiest days of the travel period, according to the airport.
