He's already on the radar!

Today I'm celebrating the Norad Tracks Santa (NTS) program!

One of the neatest things each Christmas is the service that Norad provides in escorting and tracking Santa Claus on Christmas Eve. You can read the history of how that started, learn how Santa is tracked, and track Santa from the Norad site. From the Norad Tracks Santa Operations Center you can also find a link to the videos that they are posting on YouTube of Santa's journey, captured on the Santa Cams. From that site you will also find the telephone number to call to actually speak personally to a Norad Santa Tracker!

Don't worry I have some friends in the airline industry and they tell me that everyone already has received the memo. Each will be watching for Santa and his Norad jet fighter escort team to help Rudolph and crew tonight, as necessary. With Norad's help, I'm sure that there will be no mid-air collisions with Santa and his reindeer team!

Here's a neat ad from Norad about its Santa tracking program:

Today I hope that there are no layovers for Santa this year and his flight safely gets to your hometown, of course, with his sleigh loaded with lots of goodies for you!
