I concur ^^^. Friday heading north and Sunday heading south used to get "sticky" only in the afternoon, but nowadays it seems to be an all-day thing. The photo below is example of the traffic heading south on I-95 on a Sunday afternoon in the Kittery area; it stretched well north of the toll gate at milepost 7. It is somewhat better if you head north on I-95 during the week, and the earlier in the day - the better.

There are so many "bad" traffic areas on I-95; when we head north from FL (and are in a hurry) we stick inland as much as possible: I-95 to I-26 to I-77 to I-81 to I-84 to I-90 to I-495 back to I-95. This route has been discussed elsewhere on the forum. Yes, there are sticky points on this route too, but my take is there are fewer than straight I-95.

However you go, safe travels and enjoy Maine.
