2x One week holidays abroad or 1x 10 day holiday abroad in a year?

2 x one week, but I imagine that would be a lot more expensive as it’s two lots of flights.

I'm a restless sort & would prefer two separate trips.

Though as I get older i'm starting to see the merit of a longer break too

I think it depends on the destination(s). I wouldn't go long-haul for a week.
DH only gets 5 weeks holiday, so we juggle to include bank holidays & get away as much as possible.

If that was the only choice I would probably 2 x 1 week.

1 two week holiday. I need a few days to completely switch off so I wouldn’t find one week enough.

I think I would look at three four day holidays if that was a possibility. Four days anywhere is us usually enough.

Definitely 2 x 1 week holidays.

Comedycook · 19/08/2025 17:32

2 x 1 week definitely.

A week is enough anyway imo...I'm always ready to come home by then anyway.
