The most Americans to travel for Thanksgiving since 2007
More Americans will travel 50 miles or more from home than at any time since 2007, says the American Automobile Association. And most will drive: Nearly 42 million Americans will take a holiday road trip, but just 3.6 million will fly. This year marks the seventh consecutive year of growth for Thanksgiving travel.
