Dragons already fly without Santa's magic dust so this would save Santa time with chemical engineering.

Also, if other bad sky drivers pull out or pull any last minute lane change procedures in front of Santa almost causing an sky accident, the dragons could open their mouths aim and fire at the bad sky driver. Problem solved and Santa's insurance rates won't get jacked up.

I just suddenly realized that I need a dragon or two!
