Here we are criticizing the pilot's English skills, or lack thereof. And we have FT'ers misinterpreting remarks written in English. Ironic, isn't it?!

Mr. Bean, cj001f: we know that kids are not allowed in the exit row during takeoff or landing. This is true for pretty much every airline. The question was regarding the cruise portion of flight, when emergency exits are moot. Unless airlines allow you to strap on parachutes and jump off the plane mid-flight, how does it matter who sits in the exit row?
