WHY DO WAIT UNTIL TOO LATE ?

Summer in Canada is a much-awaited season. After long, cold winters, Canadians love to enjoy the sunshine, warmer temperatures, and time off. One of the best ways they make the most of summer is by planning their vacations early. From coast to coast, Canadians take vacation time seriously   and they know that early preparation is the key to a relaxing break.

Many Canadians start planning their summer vacations as early as January or February. This gives them time to find the best prices on flights, hotels, and rental cars. Booking early also means more choices, especially for popular travel dates like long weekends and Canada Day. Some workplaces in Canada even require vacation requests to be submitted months ahead, so employees plan with care.

Budgeting is another major part of vacation planning. Canadians look at how much they want to spend, and they often set savings goals to make it happen. Some use special vacation savings accounts, while others use reward points from credit cards to reduce costs on flights and hotels. Many also take advantage of travel insurance, especially if they’re going overseas or taking part in adventurous activities.

So, where do Canadians love to travel in summer? There are two main choices: exploring within Canada or heading abroad.
