Bad weather, traffic and potential flight delays top the list of what Americans dread most about holiday travel, a new MSN-Zogby poll shows.

Worries about bad weather tops the list at 27%, followed by concerns about potential flight delays at 26% and dreading terrible traffic at 23%. Seven percent say they most dread the potential for lost luggage, while 5% worry about getting searched by airport security. But for another 5%, going to see their relatives is what they dread most.

Nearly half of Americans (44%) say their ideal holiday vacation would be visiting family and friends, while 30% say they would rather spend a holiday vacation relaxing at home. But for 17%, flying south for warmer weather would be the best way to spend the holidays, while 4% would most like to hit the slopes at a ski resort.
