How does the planner detect long weekends?

The planner marks holidays on Monday or Friday as long weekends. Holidays on Tuesday or Thursday are marked as potential four-day weekends because taking one bridge day may create a longer break.

Does this include all observed or regional holidays?

Holiday rules can vary by employer, region, and government calendar. This planner uses public holiday data by country and applies deterministic planning tags for quick holiday planning.

What is a bridge day?

A bridge day is a workday between a public holiday and a weekend. Taking that one day off may turn a normal break into a four-day weekend.

How the long weekend tags work

Holidays on Monday or Friday are marked as long weekends. Adjacent Monday-Tuesday or Thursday-Friday holiday pairs are marked as 4-day weekends. A Dec 31 holiday connected to New Year's Day is marked as a 5-day weekend when the weekend follows. Standalone Tuesday or Thursday holidays remain potential 4-day weekends.

About observed holidays

Public holiday observance can vary by employer, region, and industry. Use this planner as a quick deterministic calendar check, then confirm local or workplace rules before booking time off.
