    Generally you should always clear with your line manager before booking a holiday to make sure that you don`t have any commitments over the period of leave you are requesting.

    Hi, great question. If you have pre booked holidays before you joined it will totally depend on when. If they are during phase 1 or 2 training and you would be missing a chunk of training, i'd suggest that you try and move your holiday dates. If they are booked for when you get to unit then you need to try and contact your line manager / chain of command before leaving phase 2 and see if you are able to take the holiday.
