As I understand it, the line will be dismantled in very early January, and

 From the horse's mouth at the link below the film must be in Dwayne's lab
by noon on December 30 (not December 31).  For those across the pond who are
going through Kodak in Lausanne you might want to check with Lausanne on the
date.  I assume some substantial lead time will be involved there unless
Dwayne's has some side deal with Lausanne.
