Take a Day Trip: Destinations in West Virginia

Taking the scenic route

When you drive through the U.S., you have the opportunity to see some amazing views along the way. While your destination may be a few states away, the cities you travel through can have picture-worthy sights that you can spontaneously stop your car to view. There’s not much to see when flying besides clouds in the sky.  

Bringing luggage

Airlines can have pricy fees for luggage. As a result, you might have to leave some items at home that you would rather take on your vacation. Meanwhile, you can put as much luggage, food, and other items that you can fit into your car, so you don’t have to leave any necessities behind.

Saving money

Flying can be very expensive, depending on the airline and flight time you choose, as well as the amount of luggage you bring. Even though you have to pay to fuel or charge your car, you can still typically spend less money when driving instead of flying.

Traveling on your own time

Once you book a flight, you have to have a set plan in order to get to the airport on time and make your flight. Not only do you have to get to an airport hours before the flight leaves, but you also might end up waiting even longer if your flight gets delayed. When you drive, you can make your own schedule, so you can hit the road whenever you please, without having to worry about flight delays or cancellations.
