Traveling This Memorial Day holiday? Pack Patience. As you hit the road for the 2021holiday, you may find things crowded, more expensive and with less staff to keep things running smoothly. Last year, for the first time in 20 years AAA declined to put out its annual Memorial Day travel forecast as the surging coronavirus pandemic kept many people close to home. This year, travel is back, with more than 37 million people expected to venture 50 or more miles away from home. That’s a 60 percent increase from the 23 million who actually traveled last year, the lowest on record.
