How To Turn 5 Days Into 9

So, to recap, Arafat Day will take place on Sunday, June 16th and will be followed by 3 days of Eid Al Adha holiday until Wednesday, June 19th. If we pair the weekend before Arafat Day that will bring the total holiday days to 5. But isn’t Wednesday just an awkward day to end a holiday trip? If you want to increase your fun and make it a week-long excursion, then all you have to do is apply for annual leave on Thursday, June 20th and Friday, June 21st. Adding these two days plus the following weekend will round your Eid al Adha off to a glorious 9 days!
