📣 Notas para viajantes

The U.S. offers diverse destinations, ranging from major urban centers (e.g., Manhattan, Chicago) to natural wonders (e.g., Yellowstone, Alaska) and coastlines.

• Federal holidays often close government offices, post offices, and banks.
• If a federal holiday falls on a weekend, observances often happen on the nearest weekday.
• Travelers should anticipate significant crowding during the period between Thanksgiving and January 1.
• New Year's Day (January 1) is a federal holiday, with most non-retail businesses closed.
• Federal holidays are listed in the source text.
• Most states and localities observe both federal and regional holidays.
• Dining etiquette is often European-influenced: Avoid joining occupied tables without invitation. While waiting for everyone to be served is common, starting hot food is acceptable. When visiting a private home, bringing a small gift (flowers, wine) is appreciated. For unfinished meals, ask for a 'to-go box' rather than using 'doggy bag.'
