A holiday on a Tuesday or Thursday is worth far more than one on a Wednesday: a single leave day turns it into a four-day weekend.
Holidays that land on a Saturday or Sunday give you nothing extra — worth knowing before you plan.
March is the strongest month to plan around.
Book the bridge days first. They are the cheapest days off you will ever take.
Check whether Switzerland moves holidays that fall on a weekend to the following Monday — not every country does.
