3. Benefits of Long Holidays: An Opportunity for Homecoming and Vacation

The long Eid holiday in 2025 becomes a special moment for the community to enjoy going home more leisurely and without rushing, thanks to additional collective leave after Eid al-Fitr. With more flexible timing, travel planning becomes easier, offering more options before and after Eid. This also means a more even flow of homecoming traffic, reducing congestion on the roads.

In addition, the opportunity for sightseeing, whether to hometowns or other interesting destinations, is increasingly wide open. For workers, the recovery time after travel is also more adequate, helping them return to their routines feeling refreshed. The government is also on board, with attractive policies such as toll discounts and adjustments to public transportation ticket prices, making this homecoming journey more comfortable and affordable.

4. Preparation for the 2025 Eid Holiday

To make your long Eid holiday truly memorable, it is important to plan your trips and activities well in advance. Start by booking transportation tickets—whether it's a plane, train, or bus—as soon as possible to avoid missing out and to get the best prices. If you plan to return to your hometown by car, ensure that your vehicle is in top condition so that the long journey feels comfortable.

Don’t forget to arrange your work leave schedule, especially if you want to extend your holiday with permission from your office. Additionally, check for any homecoming discounts or promotions that may be offered, such as toll ticket discounts or public transportation subsidies from the government.

Make the most of this holiday time wisely, whether to gather with family, rest, or explore tourist attractions. With careful planning, your 2025 Eid holiday can become an unforgettable moment, whether for returning home, sightseeing, or simply enjoying time together at home.
