Traveling On Christmas Eve!

I was just reading that people across the U.S. are stranded due to snow and ice storms. Most of these stranded passengers are located in Chicago at O’Hare International Airport. What makes me wonder the most about people that travel on Christmas eve is just why do they wait to leave on this day? I mean come on people, this happens every year and you still leave on Christmas Eve. I think they enjoy sleeping at the airport during this holiday. They have to, why else would they wait so long to go visit family. Now I know some of you will say, maybe they have jobs and can’t leave until then. But I don’t think that’s the reason. Your right about the job reason, but the reason they wait is because they want to squeeze that one extra day of vacation in before they leave. And as most of you know, that day is the Christmas party and nothing gets down anyway, so they stay. And then the big storm hits and now their stuck in an airport. My advice is, check the weather channel next time, and leave on the 22nd.

For everyone that is home right now I would like to wish you a very Merry Christmas.
