Planning for Daylight Saving Time Ends (US) 2027

If it means time off work, put the request in early, especially if the holiday falls on a weekday — Sunday is a working day for most people, so the day off needs to be booked. And if it means gifts or preparations, the countdown is long enough that a little planning each week is worth more than a rush in the last few days.
Daylight Saving Time Ends (US) 2027 falls on a Sunday — a weekend day — so most people get the day without taking time off.
