Is It Cheaper to Drive or Fly?

Friday December 9, 2005
     If you're planning on traveling this holiday season, deciding whether it is cheaper to drive or fly is difficult. Gasoline prices and airline tickets are soaring. AAA has created a Website that will help you budget for a road trip or compare driving costs against the price of an airline ticket. After selecting the starting city, your destination and vehicle information, the AAA Fuel Cost Calculator returns the number of driving miles, gallons of gasoline required and the estimated cost of both one-way and round trips. Very cool tool!
     Want to check out the cheapest gas? Both GasBuddy.com and GasPriceWatch.com depend on motorist to report gas prices, so you can find the cheapest gas in your neighborhood or wherever your travel takes you.
