As we get closer to the holiday weekend, some Americans will choose to travel but according to AAA, most will decide to stay home.
84.5 million Americans are likely to spend time traveling during the holidays—but that’s about 34 million less than traveled last year.
The CDC is urging Americans not to travel for the holidays this year since exposure to people living in different households can increase the likelihood of contracting and spreading COVID-19.
For those who are still planning to hit the road, AAA recommends planning ahead to learn about COVID restrictions in place in different destinations. Travelers should also follow any public health guidance as well as verify that hotels are open and car rentals are available ahead of time.
