Airports Are Busiest At Holiday Season

The November-December US holiday season easily witnesses the most hectic air traffic of any other time in the year. This awesome time-lapse video by Cysfilm.com compresses all landings between 10:30 am and 3:00 pm at San Diego International Airport in southern California on the day after Thanksgiving (November 23, 2012) in just 26 seconds to provide a sense of how busy just one airport is during the holiday season.

Many thanks to all the air traffic controllers and support crews who managed to keep all the landings and take-offs coordinated during the hectic flying season.
