The correct answer is E. The person who got down at Meritland is older than Yahu, who in turn is older than the person from Lambda.

Explanation:

We can conclude that there are three managers, two pilots, and one scientist from the information we're given. Since the youngest among the passengers is Zane, a scientist, his age must be 31. The passengers from Beta and Alpha are pilots, whereas the people from Gamma, Delta, and Kappa are all managers. This means that the passenger who is the scientist must be from Lambda. The passenger who got down at Station X is a manager and is under 34 years old.

The passengers from Delta and Alpha are 35 years old. The person from Beta got down at Station Y, while the person from Lambda got down at Station Z. Here’s the final distribution in the attachment:
