BWI has few delays, smaller crowds, short lines
At BWI-Marshall Airport, things appear to be calm this afternoon, with flights mostly arriving on time. A few flights arriving from perennially busy airports like Atlanta, Phoenix and Chicago, are delayed. But reporter Sam Sessa, who spent a hour or so at the airport this afternoon, reports thin crowds, short- to no-wait security lines and little traffic backup. More Americans may be hitting the road or taking the train to save money this year. AAA forecast air travel would dip about 7 percent compared with last year. Also, with Thanksgiving and Christmas about a month apart, some families may be choosing to travel for one or the other, but not both.
