American Airlines offers free access to Rosetta Stone and Skillshare

American Airlines has entered into an exclusive partnership with Rosetta Stone and Skillshare to bring online/remote learning onboard.

As of 1 June, customers can choose from a collection of more than 150 creative, productivity or language classes, and learn for free on American’s new Lifestyle in-flight entertainment channel.

“The importance of personal enrichment has grown over the past year, but so have the varying priorities competing for our attention,” said Clarissa Sebastian, Managing Director of Premium Customer Experience and Onboard Products. “We are thrilled to team up with Rosetta Stone and Skillshare to introduce new, interactive ways for our customers to spend their time with us.”

Through Rosetta Stone, passengers will be able to learn bite-sized content in Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese and Spanish. More offerings will be added in the coming months.

Skillshare is the world’s largest online learning community for creativity. Customers traveling with American can bring along a journal, sketchbook or put the beverage napkins to good use while exploring classes about writing, illustration, design, photography and creativity.

In addition to Rosetta Stone and Skillshare, the new Lifestyle in-flight entertainment channel will include existing customer favourites like Calm, Austin City Limits live music and concert performances.
