As Memorial Day getaways begin, millions of Californians taking to the roads and skies.

San Jose resident Namitha Vellian told NBC Bay Area that the crowds aren’t the problem, it’s the cost of airfare, which nationally is up 6%.

“It’s been fine but definitely the prices have been going up so much, that it’s just, honestly, kind of ridiculous,” Vellian said.“The gas prices are really expensive. With gas prices going up is what we could’ve been using on the trip.,” Santiago said. Despite the prices, many people are certainly willing to put up with cost and traffic to take off on this post pandemic holiday.
