Utalk adds new languages to in-flight lessons

Language company Utalk has made its free in-flight language lessons on Emirates flights available in Arabic, Mandarin, German, and Spanish. The in-flight lessons were previously only available in English.

The additional languages are the second phase of Utalk’s Learn As You Fly project, phase one being language lessons in English for 15 different languages.

The implementation of the languages will potentially benefit huge numbers of air travellers globally, business travellers, and holidaymakers across many new regions. The timing of the deal is also intended to benefit passengers flying home for Christmas, as well as regular flyers on business trips.

The company’s language lessons are also available on selected easyJet flights through the airline’s In-Flight Entertainment system, which it is currently trialling on five of its Swiss-based aircraft.

Passengers will be able to start learning their chosen language by logging on to the plane’s Wi-Fi, then using their own hand-held device or laptop to tune into free uTalk lessons.
