Bridge days and long weekends: get more from your annual leave
A bridge day โ known as ponte in Italian, Brรผckentag in German, pont in French and puente in Spanish โ is the single working day that sits between a public holiday and a weekend. Taking just one day of annual leave can turn a bank holiday into a 4 or even 5-day break. WhenOff automatically calculates long weekend opportunities for every country, so you can spot the best moments to book time off throughout the year without spending hours cross-referencing calendars.
