  Millions of Americans are gearing up to head to the airport or hit the highway for the first long weekend of the summer.


The Memorial Day weekend travel forecast, as reported by ABC News, anticipates a significant increase in travel with an estimated 42.3 million Americans expected to travel at least 50 miles from home, marking a 7% rise from the previous year. This surge is attributed to pent-up demand for travel following the easing of COVID-19 restrictions. Air travel is expected to see a notable increase, with 3.4 million passengers projected to fly, a 11% jump from last year. Additionally, road trips are set to dominate, with 37.1 million people expected to drive, up 6% from 2022. The report also highlights potential challenges such as higher travel costs and increased traffic congestion, advising travelers to plan accordingly and remain patient.
