Domestically, all transportation systems are functioning within normal parameters. According to the Coast Guard, there will be no closings of U.S. ports. All U.S. ports are open and operational. However, with low holiday traffic expected, some facilities will not be operating, to allow workers to enjoy the holiday. About 60 percent of the nation's maritime transportation systems plan voluntary stand downs or other assessments around midnight December 31.
All domestic airports are open and operational.
In response to reduced travel demand, some individual carriers are operating on modified service schedules for the holiday weekend. All major freight trains have indicated they will be stopping their trains shortly before midnight on December 31. Most trains will resume operations once train control and communication systems are tested. Passenger and commuter rail plan to operate service with a slight delay at the midnight hour to evaluate critical systems. Delays are expected to last no more than 30 minutes.
