Georgians are expected to mirror national trends for travel over Labor Day weekend — or at least they were before Hurricane Isaac drove up gas prices. AAA predicts 900,000 people from Georgia will travel 50 miles or more on the holiday weekend — which started Thursday and runs through Monday. That’s a 2.9 percent increase, identical to the auto club’s forecast for increased travel across the nation.
