Frequently asked questions
Short answers to the questions people most often ask before relying on the page.
- What counts as a long weekend?
- Any unbroken run of 3 or more consecutive non-working days created by Saturdays/Sundays plus a public holiday — without taking any vacation day.
- Can I extend a long weekend with vacation days?
- Yes — head over to our bridge-days planner. It shows exactly how many vacation days each long weekend would cost to extend further.
- Are regional or religious holidays included?
- We base the calculation on each country's nationally observed public holidays. Regional holidays (German Bundesländer, Spanish autonomías, Swiss cantons) are not yet aggregated — we use a country-wide baseline.
