US sees travel surge, as 1.5 million pass through airports

For the first time since the pandemic began over a year ago, 1.5 million travellers entered the United States on Sunday.

The milestone was the 11th day in a row that the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) okayed the entry of over one million passengers, the result of spring break and an increase in the numbers of vaccinated being credited for the jump in umbers, the government agency stated.
