A calendar perfect for getaways

May stands out this year with three public holidays. This allows employees to plan interesting combinations by taking a few strategic days off. In its news report, TVMonaco identifies the specific strategic dates for maximising these periods of rest. The excitement is already palpable: some Monaco residents have told the channel that they want to take advantage of these days off and plan to take their holidays in May to ensure several consecutive days of relaxation.

Anticipation is key to taking full advantage of this calendar. By carefully planning a few days’ leave around these dates, it becomes possible to enjoy several long weekends without significantly impacting your annual leave balance.
