$10$ cities are connected by one-way air routes in a way so that each city can be reached from any other by several connected flights. Let $n$ be the smallest number of flights needed for a tourist to visit every city and return to the starting city. Clearly $n$ depends on the flight schedule. Find the largest $n$ and the corresponding flight schedule.

On a connected graph $G$, one may perform the following operations:
[list]
[*]choose a vertice $v$, and add a vertice $v'$ such that $v'$ is connected to $v$ and all of its neighbours
[*] choose a vertice $v$ with odd degree and delete it
[/list]
Show that for any connected graph $G$, we may perform a finite number of operations such that the resulting graph is a clique.
