Americans Don’t Take Enough Vacation

August 28, 2007

I read an article yesterday that said Americans take only 11 out of 14 vacation days a year. That is awful. Americans are giving back 438.9 million vacation days a year or $60.46 billion. That figure probably offsets the billions companies lose on fantasy football, online shopping and March Madness. How do we stack up against our European counterparts?

1) France: 36 days
2) Spain: 30 days
3) Germany: 26 days
4) British: 24 days
