I'd rather have a silence than a Chatty Charlie who wants to be a tour guide.

If something is WRONG, I definitely wanna know. But man, especially up here in Canada, you hear it once in English, then again in French. I'm always glad to get to Colombia where the announcements are just in Spanish. Except now Avianca is doing all the videos in kinda crappy English too I wish they had contracted me to do it! I woulda done it for 1 free flight!
It's on the AC flights to a third nation, where you get it in three languages that I start to lose the plot - last week back from Tokyo, in three languages, most of the first 3 hours was 'sorry, there's still turbulence, keep belts on, don't use the loo, we will bring food and drink eventually'.

Got to be better than a Ryanair "on-time" fanfare...
