I am traveling to Italy and have a layover in Paris (CDG). Could you give me some useful phrases to say in the airport. I don't want to say something bad you know with all the security and terriorst attacks.

everybody on CDG speaks english...i was there and i know...
if you wanna say some phrases just to see their reaction then:
you can ask someone what time it is: "Quelle heure est-il?"
you can always say: "merci beaucoup"-thank you very much
or if you wanna have some fun say to someone: " Chui québecois esti!" it means: I`m a quebecer damn it! lol

Combien - how much
je voudrais - I would like
merci - thank you
vous parlez anglais? - do you speak english
ou est le - where is the
I'm assuming you know bonjour madame/monsieurmadamoiselle
I did that layover, even managed to get a few post cards out.

Whatever you say, don't say: "J'ai une grosse bombe dans mon sac." That would be very bad . . . unless you did have a big bomb in your bag. But I doubt you will.
Don't listen to erlampo!

don't listen to LoneWolf and the other guy, France is an awesome place to visit if you can stay longer.
Parlez-vous Anglais? (Do you speak English)
Ou est-ce que (pronounced es-kuh) le toilet? (Where is the Bathroom)
