Air Canada
Canada's flag carrier and one of the founding members of Star Alliance. Air Canada is bilingual by law, enormous by geography, and somehow manages to connect a country that stretches 5,500 km from coast to coast. The maple leaf roundel is iconic.
Air Canada's bilingual requirement means every flight announcement is made in both English and French, and all crew must be fluent in both languages — even on flights to Tokyo.
