Many Brazilian States and Municipalities Declare Bridge Holiday for April 30

Sources: Brazil public holidays. Over the last few days, many Brazilian states (Recife, Mato Grosso do Sul, ...) and municipalities (Sinop, Campo Grande, ...) have declared Monday, April 30, 2007, as a bridge holiday (ponto facultativo), linking the weekend to the public holiday of May 1st. We would therefore advise business traveler to Brazil to verify ahead of time if next Monday is a working day where they are planning to go.
