AAA: Historic Independence Day travel season seen ahead
This Independence Day, a record-breaking 44.2 million Americans will travel 50 miles or more away from home, taking to the nation's roads, skies, rails, and waterways to honor the red, white, and blue. With 1.25 million more travelers than last year, 2017 will be marked as the most traveled Independence Day holiday weekend ever.
"More Americans are eager to take advantage of the strong economy and celebrate with family and friends," said Jim Lehman, President of AAA East Central. "Steady gas prices are providing an extra spark for 4th of July travel plans."
The Independence Day holiday travel period is defined as June 30-July 4.
Independence Day travelers will total 7.8 million, an increase of 3.2% from 7.6 million in 2016.
6.9 million will travel by automobile, up 3.3% from 6.7 million in 2016.
354,000 people will fly to their destinations, up 2.9% from 344,000 in 2016.
581,000 people will use other modes (bus, train, boat, etc.), up 2.6% from 566,000 in 2016.
The national average gas price is 4 cents cheaper than this same time last year. With today's national average price for a gallon of gas at $2.28, prices remain historically low for the summer travel season.
The vast majority of travelers -- 37.5 million people across America -- will drive to their Independence Day destinations, an increase of 2.9 percent over last year. Air travel is expected to increase 4.6 percent over last year, with 3.44 million Americans taking to the skies this Independence Day. Travel by other modes of transportation (including cruises, trains, and buses) will increase 1.4 percent, to 3.27 million travelers.
AAA expects to rescue more than 338,000 motorists across America this Independence Day weekend, with the primary reasons being lockouts, flat tires and battery-related issues.
