I would like to hear what Romansh sounds like, but sadly all my LX flights have been bilingual only (with the second language being English). Even when I flew ZRH-GVA once just for fun, it was only German, English, French on departure, then French, English, German on arrival.

The only time I have tried SAS (to Sweden), the manual safety demonstration was done in Swedish. The words then were repeated in English, but the actions were not. I don't know if this is how it is normally, although it was not the best idea since the majority of pax were just connecting.
