Time To Plan Your 2015 Travels

     Malacanang Palace has just released Proclamation No. 831 declaring certain dates for 2015 as legal holidays and special non-working holidays. It is time to check the "long weekends" and book those flights out of the city and into the best beaches and resorts the countryside has to offer.

     Here are the holidays and non-working days for 2015.



   

     January 1 - New Year's Day
     January 2 - Special Non-Working Holiday
     February 19 - Chinese New Year
     February 25 - EDSA People Power Day (for schools only)
     April 2 - Holy Thursday
     April 3 - Good Friday
     April 4 - Black Saturday
     April 9 - Day of Valor (Araw ng Kagitingan)
     May 1 - Labor Day
     June 12 - Independence Day
     August 21 - Ninoy Aquino Day
     August 31 - National Heroes' Day
     November 1 - All Saints' Day

     December 24 - Special non-Working Holiday
     December 25 - Christmas

The proclamations declaring national holidays for the observance of Eid'l Fitr and Eidul Adha shall be issued after their dates have been determined in accordance with the Islamic calendar. 

It looks like we will have 8 long weekends for 2015. 

Book that well-deserved vacation now.
