Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakatuh

Furthermore most of the Pilgrims could be termed Musaafir, therefore not liable to perform Eid Salaah. For a Pilgrim, there are many important rituals to perform so he would be absolved of performing the Eid-ul-Adha Salaah. (Shaami vol.2 pg.166,167,520 H.M.Saeed)
