Spanish term or phrase: puente
"Irse de puente" / "Escapadas de fin de semana" - aproveitar um feriado prolongado, e inclusive "queimar" um dia de trabalho para estender esse feriado.

No Brasil, dizemos "Feriadão". Como digo a mesma expressão em PT-Europeu, linguagem super coloquial e informal? É para um anúncio de um agência de viagens, que oferece condições especiais para excurões para um "feriadão".

Abraço aos colegas portugueses!
