What happens to Christmas Day for them tas? With the long flight and date line and stuff. Do they miss out or get an extra one? Or celebrate in the air? I can never work out time differences.

Lurker, they miss out on it at home and here as they are roughly 18 hours behind anyway at home, they'll still be in the air on our Christmas day, but landing here on what would have been their Christmas day, but now our Boxing day.
I can't believe I just put it like that but I can't quite describe it any other way. I'm guessing their flight will be very nice though. They'll be exhausted but excited.
