Travel continues to rebound after a year-long pandemic. More than 47.7 million Americans will take at least one domestic trip this Independence Day (July 1–5). Tennessee travel figures are also rebounding from last year. Over 992,000 Tennesseans are forecast to take a trip during the holiday weekend. That’s the second-most on record, and 34% more than the 2020 holiday period. While all modes of travel will see increased demand this Independence Day, road trips continue to dominate this summer. Despite the highest gas prices in seven years, more than 91% of holiday travel will be by car.
