Americans plan higher summer vacation spend with credit card use
The Myvesta Summer Vacation Survey finds 78.2 percent of trips charged to cards and a 9.5 percent rise in planned summer travel. The average vacation cost rises to 2378 dollars with Northeast residents at 2710, West at 2602, South at 2272, and Midwest at 2057. Credit cards may ease tracking but should not finance unaffordable trips.
