There is no official International Language, but English is understood and spoken by more than 48% of the world population, followed closely by 29% Chinese and 14% Arabic...so that probably makes English the International language..

English is the official international language, being the language of business. Then again Spanish is the one that the most people speak around the world.

English ranks 4th in terms of people who speak it, after Mandarin Chinese, Hindi, and Spanish. However, it is used as the official international language in aerospace (pilots and air traffic controllers). It is also very commonly spoken as a second language throughout the world. Although it is not the international language officially speaking, it is the international language practically speaking.

At the UN, there are six: English, French, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, and Russian, though nearly all "business" is conducted in the first three.
In most international and scientific bodies, English and French are the two standard languages: the Olympics, ISO, SI, the FIA, medical bodies, etc.
As someone else mentioned, English is the standard amongst airport control towers *execpt* in France or in Canada's province of Quebec where you are as likely to hear French.
