Dia da Cidadania (observado)

📣 Notas para viajantes

The United States is geographically diverse, featuring destinations ranging from major city centers (e.g., Manhattan, Chicago) and sprawling suburbs to natural wonders (e.g., Yellowstone, Alaska), canyonlands in the Southwest, and warm coastal areas (e.g., Florida, Hawaii).

• Federal government offices, post offices, and banks typically close on federal holidays.
• Private businesses may choose whether or not to observe federal holidays.
• If a federal holiday falls on a weekend, the observance is usually shifted to the nearest weekday.
• The period between Thanksgiving and January 1 is the 'holiday season,' which can result in crowded travel and shopping areas.
• Generally, American dining culture values personal space, so try not to join tables already occupied. Meal etiquette tends to be European-influenced; avoid noisy eating or speaking. If in a private home, consider bringing a small, non-cash gift for the host. When dining out, it is advisable to wait for all diners to be served before beginning, and most restaurants permit guests to take leftover food home.
