Gas prices are on the rise in Florida, just as families prepare for the busy holiday travel season.
As motorists take to the roads, the average price of regular gas in the Sunshine State has increased to $2.862 per gallon.
This is a notable uptick from last week's average of $2.790 but remains significantly lower than the peak prices experienced earlier this year.
In fact, Florida's gas prices are well below both last month’s average of $3.108 and the same time last year when prices hovered around $3.004.
Interestingly, while some areas in South Florida, such as Palm Beach and Monroe, still see higher gas prices above $3 per gallon, many regions in North Florida enjoy much lower averages.
Nationally, drivers can find even more encouraging news, with average gas prices dropping below $3 for the first time in four years.
The latest data from the American Automobile Association (AAA) shows that the national average is currently at $2.855, marking the cheapest end-of-year gas prices since 2020.
AAA projects record-breaking travel numbers this year, with an expected 122.4 million Americans hitting the road—a 2.2% increase from last year.
This trend highlights a strong resurgence in American confidence and the willingness to travel, with nearly 90% of holiday travelers expected to choose vehicles for their journeys.
Florida continues to be a top destination, thanks to its favorable weather and attractions, with Orlando, Fort Lauderdale, and Miami leading as popular holiday spots.
As families prepare for Thanksgiving getaways amid rising gas prices, it's worth noting that this optimism surrounding travel contradicts the ongoing narrative from many in mainstream media.
More Americans are choosing to travel this season, signifying a return to pre-pandemic norms and showing that Donald Trump’s leadership and policies have created a climate in which Americans feel comfortable and willing to travel again.
With a focus on celebrating the American spirit and the joy of family gatherings, drivers can look forward to lower prices than those witnessed in previous years, allowing for more travel and holiday cheer across the nation.
