For the first time in 20 years, Triple-A will not issue a Memorial Day travel forecast.
Officials at Triple-A say the accuracy of the economic data used to create the annual forecast for the first major travel period of the warm weather season, has been undermined by COVID-19. The annual forecast – which estimates the number of people traveling over the holiday weekend – will return next year. Triple-A does expect to make travel projections for the late summer and fall this year, assuming states ease travel restrictions and businesses reopen.
Already, there are indications that Americans’ desire to travel is inspiring them to plan future vacations.
