How have gas prices affected your travel plans for the holidays?

"I think that most people's travel plans were made a while ago, so I have a feeling that people will still travel over the holidays, particularly now that the gas prices have been reduced. I just moved here in August. My grandchildren live in the area, so I'm staying close to them now." -- Eileen Kearns

"They really haven't. I'm a professional huntsman. Thanksgiving is when the opening meets are, so I'll be working. I haven't been able to visit any family during the holidays in years."
-- Kurt Krucke

"The gas prices' drop will definitely encourage it. I don't travel so much by car, but by flights. As long as the cost of flights stays low, I'll keep traveling that way."
-- Paulo Cardoso

"Personally, no. I'm going to still travel whether gas prices are up or down, but it's nice to have them low again."
-- Charlie Timmerman

"We were still going to travel no matter what, but the drop in prices makes it nicer."
-- Don Lund

"No, it has not affected my plans, because I'm going no matter what."
