Despite the highest 4th of July gas prices on record, 42 million Americans are driving this holiday. The unprecedented number of airline cancelations and delays is causing travelers to choose to drive and fly. Delta, American Airlines and United are all trimming their schedules even further to accommodate staffing shortages, despite passenger levels hitting post-pandemic highs. » Subscribe to NBC News: http://nbcnews.to/SubscribeToNBC

Travelers Driving This 4th of July Weekend To Avoid Airport Chaos
😎🤣😎🤣😎🤣😎https://youtu.be/OHL_5mWSMdU
Why cant anyone enjoy 4th of July in their community pool or park instead of going to Miami, California, Cabo, etc and be in more debt.
Only the fortunate with $ travels. The rest of us would stick with your suggestion to party near by home if we don’t wanna deal with the headache of traveling. 👍
@Stanley Kowalski lol so true! Gotta put #thehamptons #southbeach #tulum you name it
@Krys fortunate? You mean working hard and getting into a good paying job and not making bad financial decisions?
Staying my butt home is the perfect 4th of July. My B-Day is tomorrow. I’ll be 28.
Happy Birthday!
happy bday
Kudos. Give me your venmo or cashapp and I’ll buy you an ice cream cone.
What’s the over/under on road rage shootings?
Personally, nothing sounds better than to relax at home this holiday weekend.
getting to normal they would think they would fly on airplanes back to normal People are just stupid having cancelled flights to get a hotel or Motel
There are alternative flying options that most people dont consider. smaller private chartered flights that operate out of smaller private airports. The flights can be more expensive but your getting where you need to go only a tad bit slower in some cases. This is how entertainers and vip’s travel.
Yes , Buddy Holey & Lynard Skinard come to mind ,
@Done OwN You’re probably talking about Buddy Holy and Lynyrd Skynyrd 😀 Add Randy Rhoads.
Instead of paying high price and delay of air travel, pack the whole family into a nice comfy SUV and hit the road instead of flying. Flying is just not worth the trouble and money. In case of delay or traffic in the road way at least there choices of relief to get off the road and get some ice cold drink or ice cream to sooth the pressure. SMART TRAVELLERS Go…GO..GO…
Is the news anti airline? Trying to scare the people..
Flying is obsolete, relax in your area. 🌎
To anybody complaining about the fuel prices, fuel is more expensive all over Europe, and has been for decades. It’s just that the US has been gorging on it like it falls from the sky, and people there have oversized (wayyyy oversized) vehicles and drive constantly even to get to the next block. More walking, smaller cars, problem solved.
Don’t thank me, it’s a pleasure. Prices are up GLOBALLY not only in your country. °_°
Well Europe as a whole has much higher taxes on gasoline. You also don’t realize the US has poor public transportation outside of big cities so we rely heavily on owning our own vehicles. Gas prices going up has a bigger affect on us.
All according to plan.
only 42m dont we have like over 350 m people
That’s why I drive 4 hours to my cottage up north instead of going somewhere nicer for a July 4th getaway.
Most of us don’t have a cottage
The gov’t can end this chaos overnight if they wanted to.
Ground all commercial passenger aircraft unless it’s to get people home to where they live. Going somewhere? Tough. Stay home.
Gas is expensive, airlines tickets are ridiculously expensive. Plus that Spirit airlines are the worst. I feel sorry for the people who getting scammed by them. People save your money! We are heading into a recession!

Now you know what the future with Trumpism will continue to be like !! More mass shooting will happen if DOJ Garland doesnt arrest all top Trumpists.
No person is above the law! Listen to former DOJ Eric Holder, you can and need to prosecute Trump.
since January 6 2021 not one single Republican lawmaker has been held accountable for their insurrection actions. they will win re-election if not arrested and they will cause more chaos and mass shootings. Put an end to the evil Trumpist Republicans and support the good Republicans and good democrats.
MAGA Trumpists are ramping up their war machine to lie about their insurrection! Dont believe the lies!
.
We need to support a federal law mandating prison time for each lie told by an elected official.

More Very Disturbing Trends –
1 Law enforcement has NO OBLIGATION TO HELP ANYONE…that is what their Union will fight for during investigations and trials.
2 Law enforcement cant be prosecuted for Not doing their jobs
3 Law enforcement can legally lie unless they are under oath at that moment
4 The District Attorney will side with the cops almost always
5 Law enforcement has qualified immunity, which makes it very difficult to prosecute them
Texas Shooting Coverup …..over 18 armed evil trumpist c o p s had over 11,000 live rounds of ammo and they waited. and waited…..while people were being killed. it took the border patrol to take out the shooter…. how sad is that?
nothing will happen to these evil trumpist people unless the locals keep up the pressure and the cops and politicians involved leave!
