This year, the New York Times is reporting 30 million people will fly over the Thanksgiving break, and AAA estimates 49.1 million people will be driving over the holiday. That’s a lot of travelers.

So – what can we do to travel responsibly over Thanksgiving?

What is the single best thing you can do this year to travel more responsibly?  My take is:

Be kind to the hospitality workers serving you this Thanksgiving. Be thankful for their service over the holidays.

Of course, if you want to do more, then we have plenty of great resources. The 10 Travel Care Code items provide a great foundation for thinking about responsible travel, and the 50 Tips for Traveling Responsibly provide many ideas that are easy to integrate into your travels.

Happy Thanksgiving
