Wow! Your first time for a long haul trip. You must all be bursting out of your skin with excitement. Have a great time and more importantly, safe travels.
 
Have a wonderful time Beee. You'll just adore everything so very much. I'm very excited for you. The long haul flight will be fine, settle back, watch 200 movies and try and snooze if possible.
 

Have a wonderful time, so envious of everyone have Christmas away from home!
 
Have a great time but how are you going to celebrate Christmas day when you skip it completely?
 
Have a great time Beee and I hope it is all that you have dreamed of!! We could almost tag each other as you fly into Auckland from Honolulu on the 26th and I fly out of Auckland for Honolulu on the 29th :thumbsup2
