Increasing Your Annual Leave Dramatically in 2026, Resulting in Over 65 Days of Time Off
Doubling Your Vacation Time in 2026: A Guide by Sam Bruce
In an innovative move, Sam Bruce, CMO and co-founder of Much Better Adventures, has proposed a strategy to double the amount of vacation time in 2026. This strategy, though not fully detailed, revolves around booking days off around bank holidays, public holidays, and weekends.
By following this strategy, you can turn 28 days of annual leave into 69 days off, equivalent to almost ten weeks of holiday. Here's a snapshot of how it works:
- In January 2026, booking off the days from 29th December 2025 to 2nd January 2026 will get you 9 days off with 4 days of annual leave.
- In April 2026, by booking off the days from 30th March to 10th April, you can enjoy 16 days off with 8 days of annual leave.
- In May 2026, booking off 5th - 8th May and 26th - 29th May will result in two stretches of 9 days off, using 8 days of annual leave.
- In September 2026, booking off 1st - 4th September will result in 9 days of holiday with 4 days of annual leave.
- In December 2026, booking off 21st - 24th December and 29th - 31st December will result in a 17-day holiday with 7 days of annual leave. It's important to note that Boxing Day and New Year's Day fall on weekends in December 2026, causing public holidays to roll over.
However, it's crucial to remember that this strategy does not provide details about how to book these days off. It may require approval from an employer, so it's advisable to plan ahead and discuss your plans with your employer well in advance.
Meanwhile, the literary world is buzzing with excitement. Coco Mellors, following the success of "Cleopatra and Frankenstein", has released a moving and tender tribute to sisterhood titled "The Sisterhood". Another captivating debut, "The Last Resort" by Madeleine Gray, has been shortlisted for the 2025 British Book Awards. For those seeking a gripping tale, "The Lost Boys" by Oisin McKenna offers a heady, poignant, and engulfing read.
Remember, it's always best to book these days off before your colleagues to secure the holidays. Happy planning, and here's to a well-deserved break in 2026!
