Some migrant workers have started to return home in order to avoid the Spring Festival travel peak that begins on Jan. 26 and will last for about 40 days. The Spring Festival, the most important occasion for a family reunion for the Chinese people, falls on the first day of the first month of the traditional Chinese lunar calendar, or Feb. 10 this year.
