Jour des Vétérans

📣 Conseils aux voyageurs

The U.S. features diverse destinations, including major metropolitan areas (e.g., Manhattan, Chicago) and natural sites (e.g., Yellowstone, Alaska, Florida beaches).

• Federal government services (offices, banks) are typically closed on federal holidays, though private businesses may remain open.
• Expect congestion in airports, roads, and commercial areas during the general holiday season (Thanksgiving through January 1).
• Federal holidays are often observed locally, and observance timing may shift if the holiday falls on a weekend.
• Many non-retail businesses are typically closed on New Year's Day (January 1).
• Dinner service often follows European norms: wait until all diners are served before eating, unless hot food is served. If attending a private gathering, bringing a small gift is recommended; confirm your dish for potlucks with the host.
