Don’t be blue, Holiday Equinox is here!
In a recent piece of research looking at people’s holiday habits, including when in the year people are most likely to take their holiday, we can reveal that 23rd January 2016, is Holiday Equinox, the day which the average Brit becomes closer to their next holiday than to their last!
Everyone will have heard of spring and autumn equinox, when the hours of daylight verses darkness are equal. Everyone looks forward to the days getting longer and being nearer to the day with the longest hours of daylight (and hopefully sun), well this is the holiday equivalent!
Holiday Equinox is the ultimate hump day! You are now nearer to your 2016 holiday, than you are to your (now a distant memory) last one.
The majority of holiday-makers take one main holiday a year, typically in the summer, so discounting city breaks or secondary winter holidays/UK trips, once January the 23rd arrives, you are nearer to your main sun holiday – which is a good thing, seeing as we all know how horribly quickly holiday memories fade upon return!
A ray of (sun) light at the end of the dark January tunnel. We hope that the fact Holiday Equinox is here will lift your spirits – Happy Holiday Equinox Everyone!
