Oh dear, it seems rainboe has had a sense of humour failure.

Anyway, here's a typical cruise PA used on flybe:

Ladies and Gentleman, this is the first officer speaking,
We're currently in the cruise at 27,000 ft, with a groundspeed of approximately 500 miles per hour.
We should be arriving on stand in Malaga on schedule at 25 minutes to 12 local time.
The weather there is currently overcast with a temperature of 22 degrees and a light wind from the west.
From the captain and myself, we hope you're enjoying your flight with us today and we look forward to seeing you on board again in the not too distant future. Have a pleasant stay in Malaga. Thank you.

Why leave out the speed? How else do they think they're able to travel 1000 miles in 2 hours?!?

All the best, T=
