What are your holiday plans for 2025?

[JennyTals]

I've nothing booked so far 😕

We have booked Chatsworth caravan site for a few days next November for the Christmas market and house decorations, had to book really early as it fills really quickly. Also a week in the Cotswolds in March so far

When we went we booked apartments and self catered. I then packed quite a bit of food in our case. Every day I bought sandwich stuff and made a picnic. We ate out twice, but only to try a local dish or two. I was a good way to control the costs. We did rebook activities and hire a car but that was quantified beforehand. It was a great holiday.

These threads do make me very envious. We are lucky to be able to afford to go abroad but it’s a real stretch these days despite us having a high family income.

Some of you mnetters must have significant incomes (though if you’ve not got school aged kids it is a lot easier, granted)

Where I live it’s very normal not to go abroad at all, lots of people rely on caravan holidaying in the uk, and there’s nothing wrong with that

. I can’t go in the sun, hence why going to the Arctic. No heat, no sand, no lying around.

Nowhere yet but will do a post GCSE holiday hopefully in June. Am going to let my DD choose where she would like to go.

Rio and Paraty in January with friends

Cyprus in Easter and October school holidays with my kids

hopefully a late deal for Feb half term to Canaries

We don’t like to leave our dog much so mostly holidays with him.
wales in march
new forest in april
Cornwall in May .

maldives in November
then something in uk in December not yet booked

Disneyland in April. Want to go somewhere hot in summer as didn't get to this year but not decided where yet.

Yes in Grenada last year. Love it - try and stay on Grande Anse.

Skiing in Austria in Feb
Possibly Italy or Spain in summer hols

Yes we can only afford what we can as we don't have kids yet but earn £60k between us, definitely trying to make the most of doing lots of travel before we decide to have kids in the next 5 years or so!

There's a lot more to 'abroad' than heat, sand and lying around!

January and February in Canary Islands
June in France and Italy
Possibly September ish for a couple of months in Australia

Rome early February for rugby. It's DH's 70th this year we're going to go somewhere for it but haven't decided where

Nothing booked yet. Talking about a road trip around parts of Europe. Or sailing in Greece.

Got a long weekend in Italy booked and then a week in Spain in May half term. That’s as far as we’ve got so far. Will book a couple of weeks somewhere in the summer with the 5 of us, not sure at the moment who will actually make it to Spain as one of the dc doesn’t get much leave, we’ve booked her flights but they weren’t too expensive if she can’t make it and we lose the money.

Two weeks in the South of France end of July with DH and a week in Palma with DD1 at the end of August. We're both teachers so it's a nice way to end the summer holidays.

Vegas in April so excited for that. Waiting on DH holiday rota coming out so don't know dates but maybe 10 days in turkey, a city break and a solo to London to see devil wears prada and clueless.

That sounds bliss! Before the kids i spent 6 weeks in canada, in January. Best thing ever.

We’re expecting Dc2 in April so we won’t be going abroad this year, but we’re looking at booking a Campervan break in July/August for a long weekend.

Weekend trips planned to Malaga and Matera with DH. Just me to Warsaw to visit friends and will squeeze in a day in our office there. Still need to organise another one with my friends - we were talking last night about Budapest. 2 weeks in Calabria - Pizzo and Tropea in May/June. We normally do another 10 days / 2 weeks end of September, but dd is hoping to do a Masters abroad and is currently weighing up her options. So maybe we will wait and see where she ends up and plan something around that - carrying her stuff over and getting her settled in etc. One scholarship she is applying for has Glasgow the first semester. Other options in Poland or Italy.

Going to Morocco on 26th Dec to 5th January
Egypt over Easter
Italy in July
Krakow In October

Lots of weekends booked in too. Live for holidays and time away.

Duinrell and Efteling in The Neatherlands in May.

It was supposed to be Disneyland Paris but we changed it when we learnt that Big Thunder Mountain is closed for a 6 month refurb.

It will be my children's first time on a plane and we are excited.

I can't do sun/heat/sand either.

Last year we did a cruise to Norway. Best holiday ever.

Not yet booked but hoping to go to DisneyLand Paris after my daughter finishes her GCSEs. Just for a long weekend.

No other plans, saving for another Europe trip in 2027.
