I'm generally adverse to sending calculated values like this through the API. I would be happy with an API call to get the server's current time value which could then be used to calculate whether the vacation was active via simple strcmp if you want, since ISO8601 dates are lexically sortable. Otherwise the client is displaying a value which may go stale within a second of being calculated, causing the display to be incorrect, and the client need to know if it should be checking for an updated value.
