A request to be excused must be made in writing to the court that issued the summons and must be supported by appropriate documentation. Requests for excuse should be directed to the Jury Commissioner's Office. Your service is required as a prospective juror for a minimum of one day.
Your employer must let you have time off to serve as a juror. The time you miss cannot impact your seniority rights or vacation time. When you get back to work after serving, you're entitled to a position equivalent to or higher than the one you had when you left.
You can also be fined $500 for missing a jury appearance. Additionally, you could be compelled to explain to the presiding judge why you missed your court appearance. Remember, too, that showing up late for court can count as a missed appearance in the court's eyes.
All U.S. citizens are qualified for jury service if they are at least 18 years old, are residents of the jurisdiction in which they have been summoned to serve, have had their civil rights restored if previously convicted of a felony, and have not been determined by a court to be mentally incompetent or insane.

Potential for Excusal: Yes, you can potentially be excused from jury duty if you have pre-existing vacation plans. Courts typically understand that jurors have personal lives and commitments and may accommodate requests for excusal or postponement under reasonable circumstances.
