China Eastern Airline : Please select Nationality 中国东方航空（东航）：请选择居住国

When you are trying to add a passenger and fill in their personal information to get both boarding passes, this usually pops up. The bug is intrinsic and there is no way to fix it because the pop-up form they ask you to fill about a co-traveler's information doesn't have the item of Nationality to choose. So the app will never get the nationality it requires to proceed.

The solution is: use a computer to get your boarding pass.
