But, at least from my experience, there's something about air travel that makes my boys behavior improve 10-fold. If only I could have them maintain that...
Last time I had a problem like this (flight got delayed and we were put on a different routing) they upgraded them both (my girls) to First Class and I was asked to sit in between 2 college going kids in the middle seat. My kids would be very pleased with that setting yet again. Well lucky they are teenagers and don't need my constant supervision.
