The busy summer travel season gets underway this Memorial Day weekend.  The head of the TSA says this will be the busiest summer travel season on record, with over 18-million people expected to be screened from now to May 29th.  A spokesperson for Triple-A says they’re forecasting nearly 44-million travelers from now through Monday, which would exceed pre-pandemic levels.  Travel experts say it should also cost less to fly this year.  The flight-booking app Hopper says domestic flight costs have decreased by nearly ten-percent from last Memorial Day.
