The long holiday weekend will begin today for a lot of people.
AAA says the busiest travel days will be Thursday and tomorrow Friday as commuters mix with holiday travelers.
You’ve heard the advice before but AAA East Central’s Jim Garrity reminds us to slow down, plan your route, and of course, pack your patience.
Memorial Day has long been known as the unofficial start of summer and Americans, including here in Pennsylvania, are expected to kick off the season by traveling in near-record numbers. AAA estimates 41 million people will travel nationwide, which is about 5 percent more than last year and the most in a dozen years.
In the Mid-Atlantic region, which includes Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York, AAA estimates there will be about 5 million travelers, up four-and-a-half percent from last year.
Travel delays on major roads could be more than three times longer than normal.
