Gas Prices

Florida Gas Prices Slightly Drop Ahead of Memorial Day Holiday Weekend

Florida gas prices increased by an average of six cents per gallon, then dropped during the past three days. According to the lastest report from AAA Auto Club Group, Sunday’s state average of $3.45 per gallon is the same as a week ago. 

“Pump prices are drifting lower as a record-setting 2.5 million Floridians prepare to travel for Memorial Day weekend,” said Mark Jenkins, Public Relations Manager for AAA – The Auto Club Group. “However, ongoing geopolitical tensions could prevent pump prices from falling below year-ago levels, during the holiday weekend.”

Florida gas prices averaged $3.41 per gallon on Memorial Day 2023. This year, nearly 2.3 million Floridians are forecast to take a road trip for Memorial Day weekend. That’s a new all-time record and nearly 106,000 more Floridians on the road than last year.
