Sample 1- Vacation Request Email
To: [email protected]
From: [email protected]
Subject: Request for vacation leave
Dear Manager Name,
I would like to request vacation from DATE to DATE.. It has been nearly 5 years since I have had a family vacation. I wish to use some of my vacation hours for some much needed family time. Currently, I have 125 vacation hours and want to use 40 of them.
At the current time, all of my work is completed. I will also make sure that all pending work will be completed in advance before I leave for this trip. I will ensure that whoever fills in for me in my absence will not have much to do.
As you know, I am a hard worker and put in more than 60 hours a week. A good way to keep refreshed and not to burn out is to have a vacation once in awhile. I feel I am long overdue. I have put a trip on hold several times for company demands. I would like to have some time to spend with my family.
I have filled out the official company vacation request form and have attached it for your review. Please respond to me in writing so that I may schedule my trip.
Sincerely,
Your Name

To: [email protected]
From: [email protected]
Subject: Request for vacation leave
Dear Manager Name,
This email is a formal request for one week’s vacation leave from DATE to DATE. I will be back at work on DATE. My wife and I are planning a vacation for the first time in five years.
All of the projects that I am working on will be completed before the leaving date. I have asked other members of my team to make sure that all of my responsibilities are covered while I’m away, and they have agreed. My team leader has agreed with my vacation request. I have attach an email from her.
If you have any questions or considerations, I can be reached at 555-123-4567. While on vacation, I will be checking my email every day, so I can be reached if it is urgently needed.
Thank you for considering my request. Please let me know if my vacation request has been approved at your earliest convenience, so I can finalize our flight and hotel bookings.
Sincerely,
Your Name
