While some periods are common to all schools, others may differ, notably between different provinces or between public and private establishments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-school-break-periods-in-canada-for-family-travel\">School Break Periods in Canada for Family Travel<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Canadian school calendar generally follows this cycle:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"component component__list\"><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Holiday season (all schools): late December to early January<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>School break (all schools): mid-February to mid-March, depending on school board and province<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Summer holiday (all schools): late June to late August<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Easter break (some private schools): often a full week, between late March and mid-April<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fall break (some private schools): usually the first week of November<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/familles-3.jpg\" alt=\"Travelling With a Large Family: Introduction - familles-3\" class=\"wp-image-97899\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/familles-3.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/familles-3-450x253.jpg 450w, https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/familles-3-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/familles-3-200x113.jpg 200w, https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/familles-3-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-travel-with-children-during-school-holidays-without-breaking-the-bank\">How to Travel with Children During School Holidays Without Breaking the Bank<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Travelling as a family during school holidays in Canada requires careful planning, especially if you want to use your rewards points to save money. Whether it\u2019s for busy periods like Christmas or school breaks, or for more spontaneous getaways, some strategies remain effective throughout the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-family-travel-during-school-holidays-plan-early-or-last-minute\">Family Travel During School Holidays \u2013 Plan Early or Last Minute<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The key to a successful trip starts with good planning. For high-demand periods, it&#8217;s advisable to <a href=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/en\/guide\/strategy\/best-time-buy-plane-tickets-points\/\">book between 9 and 12 months in advance<\/a>, especially if you want to use loyalty points (e.g. <a href=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/en\/reward-program\/aeroplan\/\">Aeroplan<\/a>). This guarantees better availability and lower fares. Indeed, some airlines, like <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.aircanada.com\">Air Canada<\/a>, adopt dynamic pricing, while others follow fixed prices, but with very limited space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more flexible families, it&#8217;s also possible to take advantage of last-minute offers. By subscribing to alerts on platforms like <a title=\"Roame\" href=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/en\/go\/roame\/\" rel=\"noindex\">Roame<\/a> or using dynamic search tools, you can seize interesting opportunities, often at reduced prices.<\/p>\n\n\n<aside class=\"component component__deferred_contents wp-block-milesgutenberg-deferred-contents\">\n\t\t\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\tdata-template='s-h'\n\t\t\t\tdata-post_type='post'\n\t\t\t\tdata-per_page='4'\n\t\t\t\tclass='deferred_container--preload container_post container_template--s-h container_count--1'\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-tag=\"post_id\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-post_ids=\"192385\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t<article class=\"post-preview\">\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-thumbnail\">\n\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-image\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-content\">\n\t\t<div class=\"simmer-bar-group\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/article>\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/aside>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-family-travel-during-school-holidays-be-flexible-with-dates-and-destinations\">Family Travel During School Holidays \u2013 Be Flexible with Dates and Destinations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/en\/guide\/tips-travel-cheaper\/\">Flexibility is a major asset<\/a>. Sometimes, shifting your departure by a day or two &#8211; for example, leaving on a Thursday instead of a Saturday &#8211; can significantly reduce costs and improve ticket availability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you make any plans, check with your child&#8217;s teacher to find out about important dates that can&#8217;t be missed, such as exams or unmissable school activities. For example, my sister recently told me that her daughter had exams until mid-June, but that the last week of school was rather quiet. Translation: it might be possible to leave a few days before school officially ends. This kind of adjustment can make all the difference, both in terms of price and availability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Likewise, open yourself up to several destinations or combine itineraries. For example, landing in a major city like Paris, then taking a flight on a low-cost airline to your final destination may be more economical.<\/p>\n\n\n<aside class=\"component component__deferred_contents wp-block-milesgutenberg-deferred-contents\">\n\t\t\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\tdata-template='s-h'\n\t\t\t\tdata-post_type='post'\n\t\t\t\tdata-per_page='4'\n\t\t\t\tclass='deferred_container--preload container_post container_template--s-h container_count--1'\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-tag=\"post_id\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-post_ids=\"211280\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t<article class=\"post-preview\">\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-thumbnail\">\n\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-image\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-content\">\n\t\t<div class=\"simmer-bar-group\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/article>\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/aside>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-family-travel-during-school-holidays-rely-on-the-most-flexible-program\">Family Travel During School Holidays \u2013 Rely on the Most Flexible Program<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Among the various options available, the <a href=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/en\/reward-program\/membership-rewards-american-express\/\">American Express Membership Rewards<\/a> program stands out as the most versatile and advantageous for families with school schedules.

This meant we ended up with five or six consecutive days off. Many students took advantage of this to travel with their families, whether it was to the United States, down south, or even to Europe.

By booking early (ideally 9 to 12 months in advance) and making smart use of your Aeroplan points or travel points, it&#8217;s entirely possible to treat yourself to a memorable stay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For those in search of warmth, the Caribbean, <a href=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/en\/guide\/destination\/mexico-guide-riviera-maya-yucatan\/\">Mexico<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/en\/guide\/destination\/costa-rica-pura-vida-beach-to-jungle\/\">Costa Rica<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/en\/guide\/destination\/florid-with-points-miles\/\">Florida<\/a> are undeniable classics. There are also more original options, such as Sri Lanka, Thailand or southern Africa, where the climate is dry and pleasant, perfect for alternating between safari adventures and relaxing by the sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re more drawn to a winter atmosphere, the <a href=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/en\/guide\/destination\/europe-christmas-markets\/\">Christmas markets<\/a> in Central Europe (in <a href=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/en\/guide\/destination\/vienna\/\">Vienna<\/a>, Prague, or Strasbourg) are an excellent choice and can even be combined with a ski holiday in the Alps. This season is also ideal for discovering <a href=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/en\/guide\/strategy\/japan-rewards-points\/\">Japan<\/a> or South Korea from a different perspective, with winter festivals and ski resorts that are growing in popularity.<\/p>\n\n\n<aside class=\"component component__deferred_contents wp-block-milesgutenberg-deferred-contents\">\n\t\t\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\tdata-template='s-h'\n\t\t\t\tdata-post_type='post'\n\t\t\t\tdata-per_page='4'\n\t\t\t\tclass='deferred_container--preload container_post container_template--s-h container_count--1'\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-tag=\"post_id\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-post_ids=\"240872\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t<article class=\"post-preview\">\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-thumbnail\">\n\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-image\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-content\">\n\t\t<div class=\"simmer-bar-group\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/article>\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/aside>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-march-break-sun-or-ski-destinations-for-families\">March Break: Sun or Ski Destinations for Families<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Between mid-February and mid-March, many Canadian families look forward to <a href=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/en\/guide\/where-to-go-spring-break-reward-points\/\">Spring Break<\/a>. As it&#8217;s a relatively short holiday, it\u2019s best to choose destinations that are easily accessible, with direct flights or just one stopover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/en\/guide\/experiences\/all-inclusive-best-credit-cards\/\">All-inclusive resorts in the South<\/a> (Cuba, Dominican Republic, Mexico) are convenient, especially with young children.

Of course, this depends on your personal preferences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Northern Europe, the Baltic States and Central Asia, such as Mongolia, Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan, offer spectacular scenery and an ideal climate.
