Default Special Meals / Services Over Xmas

Do airlines do anything different in terms of special meals or services over the Christmas period? I remember flying one Good Friday and the crew served hot cross buns with breakfast. Wondering if airlines serve christmas pudding or hand out gifts to children, etc etc etc.

Also, do airlines decorate their planes with Christmas decorations? Some buses in Sydney are decked out with the Christmas streamers, and look quite pretty and colourful.

Singapore Airlines place Christmas garlands on cabin walls. They had them last December when I flew with them and I saw YouTube clips showing them in previous years (clips taken onboard A380s if I remember correctly)

Not that I was expecting anything but we didn't even get a 'Merry Christmas' on JQ424 SYD-OOL.

Was on SQ 232 on Boxing Day and the cabin was lined with garlands. There was also a merry christmas by the crew upon entry. And they had special Christmas themed june covers but the food was standard.
