Something wrong when you can’t just leave the bottle in your bag until the flight is over

Preachy much?

Sounds like she just make an innocent mistake. I did not know until this article that you couldn't drink your own alcohol on a plane. Especially as every airline I've ever been on is happy to serve it to you at $5 or $6 a pop. Only reason I haven't tried bringing my own on board is because it is so readily available in flight.

I would not categorize somebody as an alcoholic, or having a problem, simply because they "need a drink" on a plane. That is one of the times when I will take a drink during the day. Flying with a bunch of strangers at 30,000 feet is a little stressful and a nip or two keeps me calm and helps me ignore the crying baby three rows back and focus on the book I have in front of me.

“I would not categorize somebody as an alcoholic”.... I did not say that at all

“Flying with a bunch of strangers at 30,000 feet is a little stressful and a nip or two keeps me calm and helps me ignore the crying baby three rows back and focus on the book I have in front of me.”....Then unlike this lady you ought to buy it on the air plane. I find that a nice cup of tea works better and doesn’t dehydrate the way alcohol at altitude does

Nope what I said was there is something wrong...could be a psychological issue. I don’t know

Seems you are quick to jump to conclusions
