What is the difference between holiday and vacation?

Both holidays and vacations are enjoyable ways to spend time with family and friends, and many people use the terms interchangeably, but there is a difference between the two.

A holiday is a day set aside for a special celebration or commemoration. The word holiday has its roots in the Old English word 'hāligdæg', which means “holy day.” In many cultures, holidays are associated with religious or spiritual traditions. However, there are also secular holidays that are celebrated by people of all beliefs. Holidays often involve special food, decorations, and activities.

Vacation is a travel planning application that helps you organize your trip itinerary. Itineraries can include flights, hotels, car rentals, and activities. Vacation also includes a packing list to help you remember what to bring on your trip.

So, holidays are typically tied to specific dates, whereas vacations can be taken at any time.
