Actually in all my years of travelling on CX, I have always been impressed with their British flight crews' prowess on foreign languages. Not that I've ever heard any other British pilot say anything else on other airlines.. ie BA.
But only on Cathay, I'm thoroughly impressed when the Captain welcomes one aboard in English and then continues on in the destination language. I've so far heard Captains speak French, Japanese, Cantonese and Thai !
