Mori V'Rabi Harav Hagaon R.
Shlomo Miller shlita said,
"Instead of arranging
the timing of הדלקת נרות
so it won't interfere with
your travels, you should
rather arrange the
timing of your travels so it won't
interfere with the הדלקת
נרות.
Lighting Ner Chanukah is the
only Mitzvah that the
Rambam writes (Hl. Chanukah
4:12) מצוה חביבה היא עד מאד
(most beloved Mitzvah)
The Rambam also writes והדלקת
נרות - כקריאת מגילה
Perhaps the Rambam meant that
the same
way קריאת מגילה is דוחה all
Mitzvos even דאורייתא
(except Meis Mitzvah) so too הדלקת
נרות is דוחה all
Mitzvos.
Being it is such a great
Mitzvah one should try to
avoid traveling if it will
interfere with this beloved and
important
Mitzvah."
