  • Which seat you chose.
  • Why you chose that seat.
  • Which famous person you would like to sit next to and why.

Example: I chose to sit in seat 1B, which is next to Kate Middleton. I chose this seat because I admire her elegance and her work with various charities. I would love to talk to her about her experiences as a member of the royal family and her efforts in supporting mental health and children’s causes.
