I’m afraid economics is not my field. However, no one can answer this question until it happens: otherwise it’s guesswork. It’s close to impossible to make an informed guess here.

Looking at travel as a non-essential luxury… it could be anywhere between forty and ninety percent.

Depends on the economy.They are waiting for it to improve so they can come up with some excuse to raise the price per barrel.They gouge us as deep as they think the market will allow.I wouldn't count on the prices going down.

GOD HELP US ALL> We are total victims of oil politics and other factors around the world. There is NO rhyme or reason to me as to the WHY"S of all this. SUpposedly, we have enough oil reserves in this country and in CANADA, where we get most of our oil from. to keep us happy with LOWER fuel and oil prices of anywhere but the middle east and Venezuela. NOTICEABLY, the BUSH family never made issues with this problem since they have owned oil fields in the middle east since the fifties. I cannot remember EITHER Bush ever even mentioning this problem in ANY of their inaccurate speeches. They NEVER seemed to be in touch with the world of the common man. For them it is just ca-ching, ca-ching, ca-ching. Or at least that's what I think. Bush retired on a multi million dollar ranch. That money came from SOMEPLACE, now didn;t it??? Our leaders should be doing something about this horrible thing. It seems that oil is the economic factor that is ruling the world, and even creating most of it's conflicts, along with horrible religious beliefs. Oh, well. As I say, WE ARE ALL VICTIMS OF THIS PROBLEM. Write your congressman, if you can find him/her, to get answers. I have, to no avail. NUTS!!

Golly, one never knows but anything could happen (war, attack, national disaster…) between now and then. My thought is to forget other "toys"/expenses/tobacco/liquor, etc. to save for the vacation.
Bottom line: I say thy’ll be at least the same as now.

I’ve read nothing about fuel prices dropping.. Everything Ive seen is fuel prices RISING. Many websites have predicted fuel to be around $5 a gallon. Lets hope that doesn’t happen.
Gas prices will hit new levels next year, beating 2007 prices by 10% or more, predicts on analyst.

Oil Price Information Service’s Tim Kloza told the Los Angeles Times: "We are at the highest fuel prices ever for this time of year, even though they have dropped a bit in recent weeks. I think we will see prices in 2012 that will break … records."

The Energy Department reported Monday that the average gasoline price is $3.424 a gallon, based on its weekly survey of petrol stations—56 cents higher than the same time last year.
