Ahead of Thanksgiving, one of the busiest traveling days of the year, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has released a report that shows secondhand smoke is a major problem at some major U.S. airports. The CDC's study focused on five of the 29 largest airports in the country that allow smoking in designated smoking areas. 9 Photos 7 Airports that Don't Care about Your Lungs These airports are Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, Washington Dulles International Airport, McCarran International Airport in Las Vegas, Denver International Airport and Salt Lake City International Airport. The CDC said these five airports account for 15 percent of all U.S. travel last year, with more than 110 million passengers traveling. Two other large-hub airports, Charlotte Douglas International Airport and Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, have designated smoking areas that are not accessible to the public, such as in private clubs.
