Boeing provides paid time off for 12 standard holidays, including a winter break between December 24 and January 1. The winter break is for the benefit of employees and the business and is offered in lieu of certain other government holidays.
If the employee has paid time stored up, the employer may allow the employee to use the paid time owed. This will count toward the 26 weeks of leave (you cannot take three weeks of paid vacation, then expect an additional 26 weeks of leave---the leave is a maximum of 26 weeks).
