Hi rfox,
As I tried to explain to you in my previous answer, the placement of each element in the German sentence is not as clear cut, and many times several options are possible. About those 3 examples:
1. Yes, here it's more natural to put "in Urlaub" at the end because it kind of goes with "fahren" so it's better to always leave it as close to it as possible.
2. Here "dort" describes "Jeder Mann und jede Frau", it would be possible to put it at the end but in this case it would describe the whole phrase: (Every man and every woman is very kind there)
3. Here both orders are possible, depending what you want to emphasize
