what you can expect if you're heading out of town in the next week. hi, lena. >> hey, kumasi good morning. tsa says today is the start of their thanksgiving holiday rush for the next 12 days. now already this morning here at sfo, we have been seeing a steady line of travelers coming in to be dropped off for their flights and heading inside the tsa is also predicting this to be their busiest holiday travel season ever, up by 9% compared to just last year. and while things might seem busy now, take a look at this. the busiest days for travel before thanksgiving are next tuesday and wednesday with more than 2.5 million passengers screened each day. but the peak day is actually the sunday after thanksgiving as nearly 3 million folks begin to head home nationwide. expert say positive impacts may last longer than just these peak travel times. the higher number of people traveling could mean a brighter long term outlook. >> even in an economy that is

certainly very unstable and very uneven for a lot of people, there is still a lot of demand for people who want to go somewhere for thanksgiving. so it's a certainly a very good sign about at least the bay area economy overall. though, many are traveling by air. >> triple a says millions more are expected to drive their predicted. they are predicting 49.1 million americans will get behind the wheel. that's up by nearly 2% compared to last year. now, remember, if you were headed out for a flight at any point during this holiday season to give yourself some extra time and get here at least two hours before your flight and right around thanksgiving, it's also an important time to remind folks that certain foods, such as gravy, cranberry sauce, wine, jam and preserves those must all be packed in a checked bag because they are considered to be liquids or gels. live in live at sfo. lena howland, abc seven

in place, we're talking about today, we would not have had to lay off so many auto workers because lack of semiconductors and many other examples. meanwhile, there was some controversy surrounding tech leader elon musk's absence from the summit yesterday. he was expected to speak on a panel about ai, but us special presidential envoy for climate ambassador john kerry took elon musk's place. apex says the official reason for the tech billionaires absence was scheduling conflicts. >> abc7 news is your station when it comes to everything apec . our coverage has everything you need to know. you'll find it on the front page of our website abc7 news.com or your abc7 news bay area app. >> a few people were injured during dueling protests yesterday at third and market streets in san francisco. critics of the chinese communist party crossed paths with supporters of china police creating a line in the middle of third street to keep opposing protesters apart. but that confronté was far from the most

disruptive of the day. you know what it was? this is a look at the bay bridge right now. a far cry from what i don't necessarily call it a peaceful protest. >> when you stop tens of thousands of people from being able to get to the hospital, being able to get to school and being able to get to work. >> that was chp talking about this. this was a protest that blocked the bay bridge for hours was signs, banners, demonstrators sprawled across the bridge using apec as an opportunity to get their message across to world leaders. >> and the reason why today was important to us is because joe biden is in town for the apec conference and we need joe biden to know that he has probably the most power in this situation. >> also stuck in the back up, at least three transplant organs that were heading to ucsf medical center. >> you want your organ to work? well, when you put it in. and the longer the organ is

preserved in between the donor and the recipient and the slower the organ wakes up. so this impacts the early organ function after transplant, the longer it's preserved. >> ucsf doctor garrett rowell also says at least one surgery had to be canceled because the patient was stuck on the bridge. chp eventually cleared the bridge around noon in a separate protest, pro-palestinian activists gathered at uc berkeley to call for a cease fire in gaza. >> the message is cease fire now free gaza. the chronicle reports there were no israeli flags or pro-israel supporters visible near this protest. new developments in the israel-hamas war. israel claims it now has proof to show that hamas has a tunnel network underneath gaza's largest hospital, al jobina. there's growing concerns about the release of hostages. >> yes, reggie's. this morning we're learning a 65 year old israeli hostage has been found dead. it's not clear how or when she was killed. as for those tunnels, you mentioned, israel defense forces released this

video to back up its claims of hamas having tunnels beneath medical facilities. it claims the tunnels lead to a hamas command post below the al-shifa hospital, where thousands are trapped with little food and water. the idf says it also found a vehicle at the hospital filled with guns, ammunition, knives and handcuffs. hamas denied those claims. the idf also says it found laptops at al-shifa containing photos and videos of hostages. secretary of state antony blinken spoke about the hostage situation and what the us believes israel should do next. we're focused on this entire closely and look, i'm hopeful that we can bring people home. >> we've been very clear that there can't be a reoccupation by israel of gaza, just as gaza can't continue to be used as a platform to launch terrorist attacks. so sources tell abc news that hopes for an imminent release appear to be less likely. >> israel and hamas remain at odds over how many hostages would be freed. kumasi. >> thank you, jobina. welcome to

and the worst times to hit the road. if you are driving to a thanksgiving destination. so take a look at this. if you are hitting the road the wednesday before thanksgiving, that's november 22nd, before the 11 a.m. is the best time to go. so the worst time to travel that day will be from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. on thanksgiving day. your best bet will be to head out before 10 a.m. or after 5 p.m, the worst time of the day to travel on thanksgiving will be between 11 and 3:00. now for your return, friday, november 24th, noon to 4:00 will be the worst time to travel. you'll want to drive before 11 or after 7:00 pm if you want to wait until the weekend after the thanksgiving to drive home the best time to travel will be before noon, 3:00 to 5:00 will be the worst time to get out on the roads. so hopefully that gives you something to keep in mind for next week as you are preparing for this thanksgiving
