You also hear this kind of thing a lot in the UK. Actually, I think I might even use this pattern myself sometimes (horror). Nevertheless, it is not considered good English.

April Mg MgNo, It should be ' Jone and me'.
Emotion: crying
That's even worse.

Is "be going on holiday" okay, and does this mean you're on holiday?

The "are going on holiday" part of the sentence is fine (at least in British English). It refers to a holiday planned for the future, probably the fairly near future.
