The (holiday) party is over and it’s time to head home. Easy, right? Well, you should probably make sure your flight is running smoothly (or at least in a timely manner) before relaxing too much.

Luckily, according to the Federal Aviation Administration flight delay website, most major airports are running smoothly, with flights arriving and departing within 15 minutes of their scheduled times. With one exception–if you’re flying into Teterboro, New Jersey there are some reported delays. The FAA reports that flights into Teterboro are being delayed at some departure points and recommends calling ahead to find out about times.

Other than that, things look clear–not too shabby considering it’s a holiday weekend and that whole TSA nightmare is in full swing. But remember, just to be on the safe side, make sure to call your airline and see if flights are still running as scheduled.
