Time to start planning summer getaways! How do you plan on traveling?
No planes or trains, just automobiles. When planning a road trip, the average parent will drive over 1,400 miles to their destination before considering air travel or a train, according to new research. To put it into context – that’s longer than a one-way trip from New York City to Walt Disney World. 78 percent believe that their child also prefers to be in the car. The average family takes about five road trips per year. In fact, most say their car is an extension of their home and they’ve made many fond memories on the road.
