Ready For Summer

A new poll by Triple A finds Ohio residents are making big plans to get away this summer…despite the highest gas prices in years. In fact, more than 55% of Ohio residents surveyed say they are planning to travel more this summer than last summer and many say it will be their first significant summer travel since before the pandemic. With the official start to summer just six weeks away, travelers should know if they’re planning a Memorial Day getaway, start now. AAA Travel booking data shows that reservations for flights, rental cars, cruises and hotels for Memorial Day are up 122% over last year. And while travel is up, those opting to fly can ease the travel anxiety by getting a Known Traveler Number at one of the TSA Pre-Check events in the region. TSA Pre? is the screening program that offers an expedited process at the airport.
