Ohioans Choose Roads Over Air

Over 3 million Ohioans are hitting the road for the Fourth of July, defying higher gas prices and choosing driving over flying — a trend that’s surged since pre-pandemic times. With car rentals up 10% nationwide and air travel down 2%, families are embracing the open road for its cost-effectiveness. Popular destinations range from Orlando and Chicago to international spots like Rome and London. AAA urges travelers to hit the road early — before or after the holiday, or after 3 PM on the 4th — and to prioritize safety, maintenance, and awareness of emergency vehicles.
