A couple of suggestions:
1) giving them away individually might be a better option than insisting on giving them both to the same person. Doing it that way would probably be harder on the the giver than on the cats. Cats live in the moment for the most part and adapt pretty quickly to new surroundings.
2) Wisconsin. Family at the destination? Maybe they'd take in your kitties. Most airlines allow a certain number of pets to be flown. It's a bit of a hassle (they have to have proof of immunizations, physical in the past 60 days, things like that) that varies with the airline but it can be done. I flew with our cat from Minnesota a couple of years back. It went fairly well thanks to a really good tranquilizer obtained from the vet, though she did wake up about 20 minutes from Orlando and entertained the little girl next to me by lying on her back in the carrier and more or less begging to get out. Also, though I know it can be done, I'd NEVER fly with a pet that rides in the luggage department. Lots of horror stories about what can happen.
Again, good luck.

...that between this forum and NextDoor, both these fur babies will have a great home by the end of the weekend. I would not consider splitting them up since they get along so well together. That tends to change behavior forever. It is rare that non-siblings get along like that.
Good luck!
