I don't think that the kids should be woken up...after all, even if the plane lands on time, by the time, you get luggage from the carousel, you are lucky to be out of there 45 min later (and that means it's getting ever late for the kiddies' bedtime). Kids need their sleep or they are crabby the next day.
As for Big Brother, KR, you know that I luv ya, but I have to say that the VCR is the answer.
So, in the best interests of the kids getting their much needed rest, I think hubby should be taking a taxi or town car.
(FWIW: if you were childless, I might say "tape Big Brother and pick him up"....but that's not the case, so that's that!
