גשרים וחופשות: תכנון ימי חופשBridge Days: Vacation Planner

Want more time off without burning all your vacation days? 🏖️

Bridge Days finds the best "bridges" around Israeli holidays – the work days worth taking to join a holiday to the weekend and get a long break.

📅 Every holiday, calculated from the Hebrew calendar:
Rosh Hashana, Yom Kippur, Sukkot and Simchat Torah, Pesach and its last day, Shavuot and Yom Ha'atzmaut (including the official rules that move it away from Shabbat) – plus holiday eves and Chol HaMoed, for the next 24 months.

🌉 Best bridges:
A list ranked by how many days off you get for each vacation day – "take 3, get 9 off". Filter by how many days you're willing to spend, the shortest break you want and the season, and add a bridge to your plan with one tap.

✨ Smart planner:
Set your yearly vacation balance and the planner picks the best combination of bridges – the most days off in total, or the most long weekends – without going over your balance.

🗓️ Month calendar:
Holidays, eves, weekends and your chosen vacation days in colour. Tap a work day to add or remove it.

⚙️ Fits your workplace:
Sun–Thu, Mon–Fri or a custom week with half-day Fridays; holiday eves and Chol HaMoed as a work day, half day or day off; Purim and Shushan Purim if you get them; and extra days off such as election day.

👨‍👩‍👧 For parents:
Add school holidays and see them on the calendar. Copy the dates from the official Ministry of Education calendar – the app does not download them.

📤 Export and share:
Add your plan to your phone's calendar (.ics file) and share an "I'm getting 10 days off for 3 vacation days 😎" card.

🔒 No ads, no sign-up; everything is calculated on your phone and works offline.

Workplace rules for holiday eves and Chol HaMoed vary – check with your employer.
