H: let me see… yes, one window seat and one aisle.
我看看,一個靠窗,一個靠過道。
S: ok. But can I trede my seat with you? I prefer the one near the window. I'm a terrible flyer. I always get airsick and can never relax until after I've landed.
那我能跟你換座位嗎?我暈機,飛機著陸前,我都會很緊張,所以想換座位。
H: that's fine. I'd like to be on the aisle anyway. It's easier to get in and out.
沒問題,我正好想挨著過道呢,進出方便。

小的隨身包就放上面的行李架上,其他的放座位底下吧。
