En route, learn a little lingo

How cool would it be to get off a plane and wow the locals by speaking a little Japanese, Dutch or Tamil? This month, Air France rolls out a test program that allows passengers on some long-haul flights to take 30-minute or hourlong lessons in 23 languages. Lessons are at the beginner level and offered in partnership with Berlitz World Travellers. And the best part? It’s free, even if you’re in coach. So skip the movie and speak up.
