Summary at a Glance

May is another month to target, with a further two bank holidays: Early May bank holiday (5th) and Spring bank holiday (26th).

That brings on to the festive season - a time in which many of us are keen to snag as much holiday time as possible, with Christmas Day (25th) and Boxing Day (26th) the final two bank holidays of the year.

While most full-time UK workers get around five weeks (25 days) of annual leave, the charity claims you can stretch just 23 of those days into an impressive 52 consecutive days off – if you're savvy with your employer.

Citizens Advice reveals how to snag two separate nine-day breaks: "Request 6th to 9th (four days) and you'll have time off from 3rd to 11th," they said.

Taking to TikTok, Citizens Advice explained that utilising Bank Holidays and weekends can extend your time off far beyond what you'd expect.
