In the latest episode of "The Ex Files - The Divorce and Separation Podcast," Alex and Liza tackle one of the most challenging times of the year for separated families: the holidays. From disputes over travel plans to balancing meaningful time with both parents, this episode explores how family law addresses the complexities of holiday arrangements.

Join Alex and Liza as they discuss:

1. School Holiday Time:
   • The importance of maintaining meaningful time with both parents during the holidays and how the "best interests of the child" principle applies.
2. Travel Arrangements:
   • Domestic travel disputes, with case examples such as Galdes v Holding and Billson v Billson, illustrate how courts balance parents’ proposals for holiday schedules.
3. Overseas Travel:
   • Legal considerations for international travel, including disputes about duration and restrictions, with insights from cases like Channing v Snow, Lilley v Jasper, Barden v Vassa, and Whipp v Richards.
4. Procedural Considerations:
   • Why it’s critical to start thinking about holiday arrangements early—ideally by September—to ensure disputes are resolved before the second Friday in November.

This episode provides practical guidance on navigating holiday arrangements under Australian family law, helping listeners understand how to plan and avoid last-minute stress.
