Travel lovers and skilled planners have long begun organizing their 2018 trips, aligning them with festivals, personal celebrations, and trip schedules. Pinpointing the right dates and times to set plans is crucial. Once the 2018 Executive Yuan calendar is released, it becomes an important reference for scheduling. Before arranging major plans, it’s wise to first understand the full year’s holiday schedule and strategies for long weekends.

In addition to the national holidays and long weekends listed above, it's worth noting that the six-day Lunar New Year holiday can be extended by taking three days off, connecting with the preceding Saturday and Sunday to create an eleven-day break, which also includesValentine’s Day on February 14 (which is also Little New Year’s Eve)—those planning early celebrations may want to take these special dates into account. Both Peace Memorial Day (228) and National Day also offer a “take two days off for five” effect. Additionally, other commonly noted holidays includeMother’s Day on May 13, Father’s Day on Wednesday, August 8, Qixi Festival (Chinese Valentine’s Day) on Friday, August 17, and Christmas Eve on Monday, December 24.Labor Day on May 1 (a Tuesday) also allows workers to take one day off for four, and New Year’s Eve on December 31, 2018 (a Monday), falls between holidays—ideal for those planning year-end travel.
