Sometimes. Flying to China they come around with some decent Great Wall of China red wine. I asked for a second glass about an hour after the first and the FA was aghast. LOL. I tend to pass out on planes so I stay sober mostly. Not much fun passing out and red wine seems to make it worse. I'm usually doing some good deeds on SWA and they offer me free cocktails if a FA notices. I decline.From what I’ve read, especially in higher-tier cabins the Asian/Middle Eastern carriers are a little more liberal with alcohol. But within reason.
And thanks Astro14 for the real-world example of getting hammered on a plane. Personally, I only have one drink at the airport or the plane - but I’ve seen people get sloshed before boarding. I’ve had bartenders at the airport try to pour me another drink, I tell them no.
Was sitting next to an older gentleman on a flight to Vegas a couple years ago. He ordered 2 bottles of vodka and a beer and sucked them down in about 45 minutes. Then ordered another vodka and beer.
I treat other passengers and FA with the same politeness exhibited at the gun range. At least the gun range I used to visit. Always cracks me up how overly polite everyone is at the gun range. It's nice.
My work is starting to open travel up again. Luckily, all my inspections for this year were handled remotely.
