Jour de la cession des îles Manu'a (observé)

📣 Conseils aux voyageurs

The United States offers diverse geography, including major cities (e.g., Manhattan, Chicago), natural attractions (Yellowstone, Alaska, Southwest), coastal beaches, mountain views, and urban landscapes.

• Federal offices (banks, post offices) close on federal holidays, though private businesses may remain open.
• If a federal holiday falls on a weekend, observance moves to the nearest weekday, though local closures may occur on the actual date.
• The holiday season (Thanksgiving to New Year's) is busy, requiring extra time for crowded transport and shopping.
• New Year's Day (January 1) is a federal holiday, leading to closures at most non-retail businesses.
• Dining etiquette is typically European-influenced. When sharing a table, ask permission before sitting. Wait until everyone is served before eating. Consider bringing a small, non-food gift when invited to a private home. When dining out, avoid loud noises or slurping. For potlucks, use large, communal serving dishes.
