December is here, so it's time to decorate a tree, turn on the fairy lights, and, of course, accept some gifts. Immerse yourself in the holiday bustle with the new Operation Holiday Maneuvers event!

Join the jolly winter marathon and collect candy to get Premium aircraft, days of Premium Account, gold, and much more as a reward!

The holiday event will run from December 21 (12:00 UTC) till January 23 (12:00 UTC).

Complete daily missions and get the most out of each battle to collect a whole load of candy. Advancing along the marathon route depends directly on the amount of candy you have. Every candy piece you earn moves you closer to the coveted reward!

• Over 8,000 personal points earned in a single battle will grant you +1 candy
  

Certificates within the Holiday Maneuvers event will be available for purchase in the Premium Shop from 13:00 UTC on December 21.

If there is candy left after getting all the rewards, it will be converted into Free XP at a rate of 100 Free XP points for 1 piece of candy.
