This Labor Day weekend, travel is expected to hit record levels. AAA warns of heavy traffic on highways, while the TSA projects 17.4 million air travelers—the busiest since before the pandemic. Gas prices are at a bright spot, averaging $3.15 per gallon, the lowest since 2020. Top destinations include Seattle, Washington D.C., and Yosemite. Officials advise planning ahead, avoiding peak travel times, and allowing extra time for delays.
