The discount comes as people prepare for one of the busiest travel seasons of the year.

An estimated 79.9 million Americans are expected to travel at least 50 miles from home during the week of Thanksgiving, according to the auto club AAA. Most of them — 71.7 million — will be traveling by car, AAA estimates.

Lower gas prices appear to be helping drive the travel boom. As of Thursday, the average price for a gallon of gas in the U.S. is $3.06, a drop of 20 cents from this time last year.
