In addition, scheduled days off related to the New Year holidays are expected from January 1st to 6th.

The Spring and Labor Festival will give Russians the opportunity to enjoy spring warmth and relaxation time from April 29 to May 1. On Victory Day we have 4 more days off – from May 6 (Saturday) to May 9 (Tuesday), taking into account the postponement of the day off from January 7 to May 8.
