When are the best days to travel on the highways around the Christmas holiday?

Yo asked:
I’m trying to figure out a trip to see family on Christmas, for about a week. I’m looking at a full day of driving to reach the destination, mostly highway driving.
Christmas falls on a Monday this year. I’m figuring that the Friday before (22nd) would be bad for travel, and probably the Tuesday (26th) will be busy as well.

What would you suggest as the ideal days to travel, in order to overlap Christmas day with a week of time off? Would Wednesday through Wednesday make the most sense?
Thanks.
any time near Christmas is crazy, no matter what day you think is best , so will everyone else(on the Rd.) , so just do whatever is best for your schedule .
I think Wed. to Wed. like you said would be your best bet. Good Luck.
