1 aisle: "Aisle" is the term we were looking for. The "aisle" is a narrow corridor between the rows of seats on a vehicle. When you book a travel ticket, you can often choose "an aisle seat" (if you're someone who uses the toilet often), or "a window seat" (if you like to see a view). Here's another example: "Please don't leave your bags in the aisle; it's dangerous".
2 legroom: "Legroom" is the right answer. The "legroom" we have in a car, train, aeroplane etc. is the space in which to comfortably move and stretch our legs. Example: "The new Citron Spacious car has over three centimetres of legroom for each passenger!".
3 air hostesses: "Air hostesses" is the best answer here. An "air hostess" is a woman employed by an airline to take care of the passengers on their planes. They serve the refreshments, and explain all the security procedures to the passengers. Example: "When I grow up, I want to be an air hostess because I love flying and I love people."
