English: Pillow. Blanket. Earphones.
French: Oreiller. Couverture. Écouteurs.
These are a few common items requested on airplanes.
Pillow=Oreiller (m)
Couverture=Blanket (f)
Écouteurs=Earphones (m, pl)
You may also hear passengers say “couvert (m)” instead of “couverture”. This is technically incorrect as "couvert" (though a real word in French) does not mean "blanket."
Avez-vous une couverture?
Désolé. J'en ai pas.
Avez-vous un oreiller?
Désolé. J'en ai plus.
Avez-vous des écouteurs?
Un moment SVP. Je vais vérifier.
