Estimated 3.5 million from Michigan to travel for holidays #DetroitNews

Associated Press - Estimates from AAA Michigan say nearly 3.5 million people from Michigan will travel for the year-end holidays, up 2.5 percent from last year. The Dearborn-based auto club said Thursday that it's the highest total volume of people going 50 miles or more from the state since AAA began tracking holiday travel data in 2001. Most will drive. AAA said the increase in holiday travel is being boosted by additional consumer spending, a result of improvements in the labor market and rising wages.
