HIGH GAS PRICES: Will Holiday Travel be Impacted?

So are higher gasoline prices going to make a dent in Memorial Day weekend travel?

Public Affairs Manager Morgan Dean with AAA Ohio says “not really”.

He says Americans have proven since COVID that they still want to take a trip over holiday weekends, though the prediction this year is for just a .4% travel increase.

AAA predicts 45 million Americans will travel more than 50 miles from home Memorial Day weekend.

The Ohio numbers come out later in the week.
