There are specific languages official for every airline (i.e. United Airlines)?

I think the mostly used is English, but what about for example AeroItalia or Sunrise Airways or Cathay Pacific or Air India or Aeroflot? And other international flights?

Is there a rule in this way?

Note: This is a more general version of: Are most flights to Japan staffed by hosts with good Japanese?

Yes. Announcements are made in the local language (to the airline, departure, or arrival) and English. Sometimes it means multiple languages.

From Europa.EU site:

ICAO Doc 10086 recommends that information provided to passengers via safety briefings, announcements and safety demonstrations should be transmitted in the language of the operator and in English to promote appropriate communication with passengers

I've never had a flight where they had no English announcements, even domestic flights in China. I've had flights where announcements where in three (pretty often) and even four (more rare) languages.

oh whatever
