AAA expects high gas prices to affect some aspects of travel, and offers tips for travelers looking for the best price:

  • Work with a trusted travel agent. They have many resources at their fingertips to help plan and organize a trip that fits your specific needs and budget.
  • Consider locking in pricing on things like tours and cruises now before prices start going up. Keep in mind “paying in full” locks in the pricing for most services other than government taxes and fees.
  • Research travel insurance for every trip you plan to protect your investment.
  • Plan ahead as much as possible, be flexible and book early.
