Where is Santa? Follow his Christmas 2024 route

[ad_1] ( NewsNation ) — The North American Aerospace Defense Command ( NORAD ) will again be tracking Santa and his eight reindeer as they trek around the world this Christmas.

Santa is scheduled to depart the North Pole at around 4 a.m. ET on Tuesday, December 24, which is when NORAD will start tracking his movements around the world.

Santa is expected to arrive in the U.S. between 9 p.m. and midnight.

For those who prefer to hear directly from those tracking Santa, NORAD staffs a call center of members who can tell you exactly where he is, from 8 a.m. ET on Christmas Eve until early Christmas morning. You can reach NORAD at 1-877-HI-NORAD (1-877-446-6723) during those hours.
