This activity extends learners map reading skills. Learners are again asked to think about directions and scale but now also distance, speed, time. They are asked to think about how the time of day affects traffic flow and traveling time. They are asked to read aeroplane timetables and to book a flight. They are asked to schedule a meeting that best suits a person who has to fly in from another city and leave on the same day. Usually business administrators will get someone else to find the most convenient flight to book, but it is useful for them to have an understanding of what things limit the possible suitable flights.
