...Danish

"Mit luftpudefartøj er fyldt med ål"

If told that your hovercraft was full of eels what might a Viking say or do?  In all probability he would ask you for some eels for his smokehouse smoked eel being a Danish delicacy and traditional Christmas fare.

"Mu hõljuk on angerjaid täis"
When visiting Estonia if you were to tell a Talinin local that your hovercraft was full of eels he might try to buy them from you in order to make the delicacy Keel hernestega, in English - Marinated Eel which is served as an 'apetizer'

...French

"Mon aéroglisseur est plein d'anguilles"

If you should tell a Frenchman that your hovercraft is in fact full of eels he may well ask you where it is parked and invite you round for supper on the proviso that you bring some of the eels with you so that he can introduce you to the culinary classic Matelote d'Anguille or in English - Eel stew.
