To go on vacation in the best conditions, it is better to plan in advance. Here is the ideal date for booking your accommodation for the 2024 holidays.
This year 2024 is a year where it is possible to take advantage of 28 days of vacation by taking only 12 days. A boon due to the calendar where public holidays fall on weekdays and not weekends as was the case in 2022 where May 1st and 8th fell on a Sunday. This year, the calendar is therefore ideal for enjoying a well-deserved vacation. But no question of organizing at the last minute or you risk having unpleasant surprises. Indeed, Home recommends that French people book their accommodation early this year.
In a press release published this Monday, January 22, Abritel recommends that the French start a week earlier than usual to book the vacation. Indeed, the vacation rental expert indicates that the start of the year is a period during which the most reservations are made. And the site found that reservations happened a week earlier than usual. As a result, you should book a week in advance to be sure of finding accommodation in the chosen destination, especially if it is a popular destination.
