That's the EU minimum. Which is two 2 week vacations per 12 months or one 4 week vacation.

UK gives 28 days which translates to 5.6 weeks paid leave per year.

I get 35 days. And unlimited paid sick days.

I kinda lucked out with my career choice and the time I started. I work for an unspecified airline and bid for a monthly schedule. Average 15-20 days off a month (not consecutively). Not out of the goodness of their corporate hearts of course. Legally I can only work 1000 hours in a year, and 100 hours in a month. The FAA has determined that exceeding those hours is detrimental to one’s mental wellbeing.

Unpaid vacation is fairly simple, just drop/trade shifts till you something that works. Can’t get too into detail about how paid vacation works for opsec reasons since the union bargaining agreements are easily searchable, but I can get about 20 paid days a year. So I get a month off a year with most of it paid.
