Dan Creed is a Business/Hospitality Instructor with Normandale Community College . He says with the economy booming, I predict summer travel will boom. I know personally I have several trips planned both in and out of the country. There could be record percentage of people traveling, perhaps as high as 25% Americans doing some kind of hospitality.

I believe that people will have more expendable spending money and will seek more luxury destination such as resorts in FL, Mexico, Caribbean, etc. I predict greater travel around Memorial Day and 4th of July.
