Here’s the list of long weekends in 2022! Wondering why I am sharing this? Well, the best way to save your money while travelling is to book your tickets in advance. The earlier you book your tickets, the more you save your money! Not just tickets, but you can also grab early deals on various packages and hotels as well. I always try to do my booking at least 3-5 months in advance.
So, here the list of long weekends in 2022 to help you plan your travels accordingly. But yes, make sure that you prefer the second half of the year because I just saw in news that third wave is almost here and we’ve got to keep low-key and stay put during this time and avoid travelling for leisure.
