2nd straight Tuesday that % of last year moved very slightly up compared to same day last week. We have been in the 21-22% range over the past 4 Tuesdays. How is this 22.7% an anomaly? It’s exactly what the trend has been.

If you must look at daily trends, better off comparing the same weekday of the same week last year.

Oct - mid Nov are normally pretty slow overall. Mid Jan - Feb are slowest months overall.

The tsa website is already normalized by day of week compared to last year.
