Bridge days

Each of these is a single working day with a holiday on one side and a non-working day on the other. One day of leave turns it into a break of four days or more, which is why these dates empty out even though nobody is formally off.

Taking all 1 bridge day costs 1 day of leave and produces 1 break of at least four consecutive days. That is the cheapest time off available in the 2028 calendar, and it is also why these are the first dates to be booked out.

How these are worked out

Every day of 2028 is classified as working or non-working using Saint Martin's own weekend pattern and its nationwide public holidays. Consecutive non-working days are then grouped into runs, and any run of three days or more that contains at least one public holiday is listed above. Runs made of a weekend alone are excluded, since a two day weekend is not a long weekend.

Regional holidays are not included. In countries where regions set their own dates, the real picture locally can be better than the one shown here, sometimes considerably.
