Flight update announcments

Hi all!

I was wondering whether pilots have a set amount of information when making flight update announcements? It seems it varies from airline to airline.
Take Ryanair for example, the pilots usually just give height, speed and destination weather, where as CSA Czech Airlines, whom I was flying with the other day, gave more detailed information i.e. ground speed, head wind speed (over 100mph coming back to the UK on Sunday, cool!) and outside temperature.

Just a thought that was going through my mind, that's all.

Cheers
