Yeah, but as soon as an airplane leaves Saudi airspace, those Saudi businessmen will pretty much empty out the plane’s booze supply.....and once the plane lands, it’s straight to the nudie bar.
You sound like you’ve been there. My son worked as a programmer in Riyadh, reported the same shenanigans on Saudia planes. Duplicity comes so naturally to Saudis — and to others from that region.
