Is it correct?

"Please keep your seat belts fastened. We may have some turbulance. If you feel uncomfortable, you can loosen it though" - An airhostess to a pessanger in the airplane.

Please correct this statement if you find something wrong here or if there is better way to say this, please tell me.

Thanks.

Hi Meg, If this is what you want to actually say to real passengers, then I would amend it slightly: 'Please keep your seat belts fastened. We may have some turbulance. '

Hi Meg,

'Please keep your seat belts fastened. We may have some turbulance. You may adjust its length at the buckle if you feel uncomfortable.'

Please allow me to re-edit yours slightly, MM.
'turbulence' is the right word, I think, not turbulAnce.
Could it be spelled either way?

Nope! Good work. Keep an eye on me, Koyama-san-- I'm often too proud to consult the dictionary.
