📣 Traveler notes
The United States is diverse, offering destinations from major cities (e.g., Manhattan, Chicago) and natural wonders (e.g., Yellowstone, Alaska) to coastal areas and the American Southwest.
- Federal holidays typically close most government offices, post offices, and banks, though private businesses may operate.
- If a federal holiday falls on a weekend, observances may shift to the nearest weekday.
- The period between Thanksgiving and January 1 is the 'holiday season,' which can lead to heavy crowds in public areas.
- New Year's Day (January 1) is a federal holiday, resulting in closures for most non-retail businesses.
- When dining in private homes, bringing a small gift (e.g., wine or flowers) is customary. When dining out, wait until all diners are served before starting the meal. Formal settings usually require standard cutlery.
