It’s Memorial Day weekend, and although it is a solemn holiday where we honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice, it does also signify the unofficial start of summer.
A recent survey found 82 percent of adults in the United States — more than 212 million people — are planning to travel this summer. That is slightly less than last year. Among these travelers, 42 percent plan to take multiple trips. How people define travel is somewhat subjective. In the survey 52 percent of the respondents said they planned on flying with 25 percent planning on traveling internationally.
