New York, December 24 (RHC)-- Millions of Americans are pushing ahead with holidays that include cross-country flights, busy tourist attractions, and indoor dining -- even as the surge in COVID-19 infections, fuelled by the Omicron variant, forces them to adapt plans on the fly.

While people scramble for COVID-19 tests and weigh varying public health guidance about how to gather safely for a second Christmas marked by the pandemic, many showed they were willing to brave the latest surge to enjoy holiday traditions such as worshipping and eating out.

According to reports, the Transportation Security Administration on Wednesday screened 2,081,297 passengers through the nation’s airports, an increase of 144,000 over the number of travellers it screened pre-pandemic on the same date in 2019.
