The underlying principle of the airline is that any person staying in any of the 10 cities should be able to make a trip to any other city in the morning and should be able to return by the evening of the same day. This means that there must be at least one morning flight and one evening flight between any pair of cities.
There is a total of 10C2 =45 pairs of cities. So, in the minimum case, there must be direct flights scheduled.
