6:15Now PlayingUS airlines expect to ferry a record number of passengers over the holidays after a year in which economic uncertainty and a government shutdown have whipsawed travel demand. A daily average of 2.9 million passengers will travel between Dec. 19 and Jan. 5, 1.5% more than a year ago, the Airlines for America lobby group said in a statement. Domestic airfares over the period will average $900 for a round trip, or 7% more than in 2024, the American Automobile Association said in a separate statement. New York and New Jersey airports are expecting a record 5.7 million travelers from Dec. 22 to Jan. 4, a 1% increase from last year’s numbers, according to the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. Bloomberg News Chief Correspondent for Global Aviation Siddharth Philip joins Bloomberg Businessweek Daily to discuss. He speaks with Alexis Christoforous and Isabelle Lee.
