If you’re like the majority of Americans, you’re likely leaving a lot of hard-earned time off from work on the table.
Those untapped hours may even include some crucial paid time off allowing you to get away from the daily grind and experience new places without missing out on a steady paycheck.
It’s no secret that the U.S. has been overworked for some time now and it’s a big reason why the U.S. travel and tourism industry has been on a mission to celebrate National Plan for Vacation Day on the last Tuesday of every January in recent years.
This year, National Plan for Vacation Day falls on January 30. Making the most of it starts with simply being aware.
Working with a trusted travel advisor is the easiest way to ensure that your dream trip for 2024 or beyond lives up to expectation but even if you don’t take that trip the simple act of planning travel has been proven to boost moods and increase overall happiness.
Let’s put it this way, there are far worse ways to spend 24 hours than diving into social media hashtags or reading TripAdvisor reviews when the outcome can be significant excitement at no cost (assuming you have a Wi-Fi connection).
That’s just the beginning though as travelers aware of this annual celebration can take advantage of numerous deals, discounts and giveaways like Sandals Resorts’ “Winter Blues” sale offering up to $1500 in air credit for bookings at select resorts and and @hotel’s $50 bonus for travelers who book a hotel stay of at least $1,000 during the week of January 29 for a 2024 trip.
There are also a plethora of amazing wave season deals to be had this winter.
