Dia da Identidade Puertorriquenha

📣 Notas para viajantes

The United States is highly diverse, offering environments ranging from major urban centers (Manhattan, Chicago) and natural attractions (Yellowstone, Alaska) to coastlines, canyonlands, and beaches (Florida, Hawaii).

• On federal holidays, government offices, post offices, and banks are typically closed, but private businesses may operate or close as they choose.
• Holiday observances that fall on a weekend are usually shifted to the nearest weekday.
• Expect crowding at major transport hubs and stores during the period between Thanksgiving and January 1 (the 'holiday season').
• Most non-retail businesses are closed on New Year's Day (January 1), which is a federal holiday.
• Maintain personal space when dining; avoid disrupting seated tables. General table manners are European-influenced; refrain from loud noises or slurping. It is acceptable to wait for all diners to be served, though starting early is fine if food is hot. For formal settings, place a cloth napkin across your lap. Guests are encouraged to bring a small gift (e.g., flowers or wine) when invited to a private home, though leftovers can be requested ('to go').
