CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (WVIR) - With Christmas and New Years right around the corner, AAA Mid-Atlantic says more Virginians are heeding the warnings by staying home this holiday season.
“We expect to see the lowest number of holiday travelers that we have seen in nearly two decades, down a million over last year,” AAA Mid-Atlantic Spokesperson Martha Meade said.
As more COVID-19 restrictions go into effect in Virginia, AAA shows that 34 millions fewer Americans will be traveling for the holidays.
