Kiwi.com: More vacation days for fewer days off

Bank holidays are ideal for a short break and a few days to see the places you’ve had on your bucket list for a few years already. Kiwi.com, a leading travel-tech company, has created a list of tips on how to take advantage of public holidays, vacation options and some destinations to see at different times of the year.

Easter holiday

For a perfect vacation, consider a trip between May 1st and 6th or even May 1st and 10th. For 10 days of vacation, you only need to take 5 days off. And because it falls in the same period as Labour Day you can make up for even 2 weeks of vacation.

Return flights to London on Kiwi.com, for a holiday between May 1 and 6 start from 677 lei, and to Milan from 720 lei, and for a trip between May 1st and 10th, prices for Milan are even lower, starting from 570 lei, and you can visit Brussels for only 484 lei, round trip.

You can go on a city break between June 21st and 24th with just one day off or combine Monday the 24th with a longer holiday between June 22nd and 28th, taking only 4 days off.

Moreover, this year, August 15th falls on a Thursday, ideal for a city break between August 15th and 18th, with only one day off.

Just right for a city break between June 21 and 24, return prices for Venice on Kiwi.com start from 570 lei, and a week’s holiday in Bari between 22 and 28 June starts from 860 lei. A city-break in Athens between August 15th and 18th starts from 640 lei.

A long and well-deserved winter break

Both Christmas and the adjacent bank holidays and New Years are in the middle of the week in 2024, so you could be away from the office for 2 whole weeks, taking only 5 days off, half of what you should take off any other time of the year.

With so much time at your hands for a winter holiday, perhaps a trip somewhere further afield would be in order: cities in the Emirates, or islands in the Indian Ocean, or even Latin American destinations, are perfect to travel to during our winter times.
