As others have noted, the correct spelling is "holiday".
Perhaps you are just having trouble remembering this? In that case, it might help to know the word comes from "HOLY day" and that "y" at the end of a word is commonly replaced by "i" in the middle of a word or before suffixes. Thus, "holiday" is similar to the forms "holier", "holiest".
