Do you plan to travel this summer?
Poll Description

Inflation, higher air fares and steeper hotel and Airbnb rates have put the damper on some vacation plans. 

Yet, amid higher costs, Mainers often look for a respite from the summer crowds that invade the Pine Tree State from Memorial Weekend to Labor Day.

Going into the three-day Memorial Day holiday, AAA estimates that 45.1 million people will travel at least 50 miles from home. (Some 39.4 million plan to travel by car.) The previous record goes back to 2005, when 44 million people traveled for the long weekend — the traditional start of summer.
