""Consumers continue to prioritize travel with family and friends after the pandemic," Jena Miller, vice president of travel products for AAA, said in a statement."
""Thursday, May 22 and Friday, May 23 are expected to be the busiest travel day," Gianella Ghiglino, a spokesperson for AAA, said in a statement."
Memorial Day weekend in Southern California will see a record-breaking 3.6 million travelers, with many prioritizing travel post-pandemic. AAA predicts that 39.4 million Americans will travel this weekend, primarily by car. Despite the surge in travelers, gas prices are notably lower, and rental costs are down 8%, providing some economic relief. The recommended strategy is to avoid travel during peak hours, particularly Thursday and Friday, to ensure smoother commutes. The 5 Freeway is highlighted as the busiest route in the region.
