more leg room or we have row 10ABC available if you wish to have
the entire row for yourself

he can bang on or play with so you can use plastic cups, papers and
pen for drawing and my personal favorite, a paper signed by the
captain and the entire crew, Congratulations Baby Jones for your first
flight with our airline Big impact
As for the flat-mates exercise, yes, pairing them by nationality is not a
good idea. Actually, how you solve the issue is absolutely irrelevant.
Is how you and your group members agree and disagree on this
certain topic, how you integrate in the group and how you reach a
conclusion.
All the best with your interviews,
-Kara
