HEADED TO A LOCAL AIRPORT in the coming days for dreaded Thanksgiving travel? At least one portion of your journey might not be as difficult as you think it'll be.

Metro has announced it will be increasing its transit offerings in anticipation of larger holiday crowds before and after Thanksgiving.

That means more Blue and Yellow Line trains serving the Reagan National Airport station on Sunday. Also, there'll be increased service on Wednesday and Sunday on two express Metrobus routes: the Dulles Airport/5A route from the Rosslyn and L'Enfant Plaza stations and the BWI/B30 route from the Greenbelt station. On Thursday, Metrorail and Metrobus will run on a Sunday schedule.
