The Fourth of July holiday weekend is fast approaching, and a record-breaking 72.2 million Americans from coast to coast are preparing to travel, according to AAA.
The record-breaking number of expected travelers is due in part to the holiday falling on a Friday this year, creating a built-in three-day weekend for many, Melanie Fish, a travel expert with Vrbo, told FOX Weather.
