Good morning, Orlando! A strong economy and weaker gas prices should help boost travel numbers this Memorial Day holiday weekend, AAA said. In fact, the Auto Club Group forecasts the strongest kickoff to the summer travel season since 2005, and the second-largest travel volume on record, dating back to 2000. Here in Florida, AAA forecasts 2.3 million Floridians will travel over Memorial Day Weekend, up 3.9% over last year.
