[quote=Anonymous]We ask that our APs take one week of vaction during our planned visits to out-of-town family (either at Christmas-time or in the summer), and the other week is of the AP's choosing. I think this is pretty common. This usually ends up in our APs getting "extra" vacation, since we are almost always visiting family at Christmas or for a week or two during the summer, and so the AP gets both of those times off no matter when she chooses to take her other week of "official" vacation. I agree that it is difficult to try to work with an AP's desire to travel with friends - but most of them can work it out. For instance, it is very common for host families to travel to family or have their own vacation at Christmas-time, and many APs can travel together at that time (especially if they come from cultures where Christmas either isn't celebrated or isn't that significant, e.g. Asian or Muslim countries, or that celebrate Christmas at different times, e.g. Eastern Orthodox).
