Swiss voters reject six week paid vacation

That was the news found in my local paper as reported by the Associated Press.

AP notes that the Swiss are known for their work ethic and this rejection may be a vote of austerity in the economic crisis found around the world.

What impact might have on vacation travel? Compared to the American model of 2 weeks paid vacation, there is still a lot of room.

People are already cutting back on the traditional 2 weeker in the family station wagon (mini van or cross over).

Stuff to ponder over our Spring Break!
