As the U.S. launches its summer travel season with Memorial Day weekend, travelers are bracing for packed airports and skies—but not all is smooth sailing. Concerns about aging air traffic control systems and potential dips in international visitors are casting a shadow over the holiday rush. 🛫
Experts warn that outdated tech in air traffic management could lead to delays, with some calling it a "pre-smartphone system in a 5G world." Meanwhile, shifts in international travel demand, linked to recent policy changes, might leave popular destinations quieter than usual. 🌍
For young globetrotters and adventure-seekers, this season could mean mixed blessings: fewer crowds abroad but longer waits at home. Stay tuned for updates as we track how these trends unfold! 📲✨
