Hi!
I�m doing the airport topic with my students (11 y.o). I�d like to do an activity
about flight timetables. The question is:
- When there is an announcement like this: The flight 18:45 to miami (how is the time said ?) A quarter to seven or eighteen forty-five (I think it�s the second way but I�d like to know for sure)
- Have you done the topic before? Any ideas? (activities, web links...)
- Here I leave some interesting links I�ve found:

My wife is an ex-flight attendant (lucky me)and she said they just say the 12 hour time, not 24 hour time. So, a flight leaving at 17:30 would be called out as "The flight for Bangkok at 5:30 is now boarding." I hope this helps.
