Take it from a trans-Atlantic'er who knows: for a differently-timezoned con you go to once a year or less, it's very, VERY worth it to make arrangements to take an extra day off and fly out the day BEFORE the con, thus giving you time to adjust your body clock. Those few additional waking hours you get to spend in the company of the FABULOUS are more than worth whatever overtime you may have to work in compensation.
