Christmas travel
Seasonal homeward trips
Christmas travel is the surge of journeys taken during the holiday season, typically from mid-December through early January, as people visit family or take vacations.
The phrase evokes crowded airports, packed highways, and weather delays: Christmas travel was a nightmare this year—our flight got canceled twice.
Planning around Christmas travel means expecting higher prices and longer transit times.
