Union Gap, WA is thrilled to join the nation in celebrating National Plan for Vacation Day on Tuesday, January 28, 2025. Held annually on the last Tuesday of January, this special day, established by the U.S. Travel Association and National Day Calendar®, encourages Americans to take charge of their vacation days, prioritize their well-being, and make plans for meaningful travel experiences.
Did you know that over 600 million vacation days go unused each year in the U.S.? Union Gap is here to inspire you to make the most of your time off by planning early—and to invite you to explore all the unique experiences our community has to offer!
Why Plan Your Vacation Now?
Planning your vacation early brings big benefits, including:
1. Better Availability: Early planners snag the best accommodations, activities, and travel deals.
2. Cost Savings: Book in advance to lock in lower prices on flights, lodging, and attractions.
3. Reduced Stress: Planning ahead means less rushing and more excitement as your vacation approaches.
But vacations aren’t just about logistics—they’re essential for your mental health, productivity, and relationships. Research shows that people who plan their vacations early are more likely to use all their time off, take longer breaks, and return feeling refreshed and reconnected.
