Americans in dire need of a break are canceling their vacation plans — from air travel to road trips — because of soaring fuel prices.

 

In a Reuters/Zogby poll, nearly 39 percent of Americans surveyed said they were reconsidering their vacation plans due to record-high oil prices.

 

In another survey, 82 percent of Americans said they were opting to stay home this July 4th weekend due to economic concerns.
