I wonder what was being served, beer, wine, or liquor?
Another instance of another flying bar.
I hate drunk flyers.
I wonder if Gen Z in the UK are still heavy drinkers? That's not the case in the U.S.

Brits went from the most stuffy manner driven people on earth to the joke of the world for their drunken BS.
Did they break Pelousy’s record?
What took them so long??
At least they weren’t going to a fooseball game....
In my 23 year military career I learned that Brits and Aussies can and will drink anyone under the table then sing Tom Jones at the top of their lungs and finish the evening off with a friendly fisticuffs and still show up at 0530 PT and run you into the ground. I sure do miss it.
Yes.
“Brits on a plane with no booze for three hours probably had more than one stewardess evaluating her career choices.”
I once had a flight across the channel on a puddle jumper. Full of badly hungover young Brits on Sunday morning after Saturday night in Amsterdam.
It was the nastiest, bumpiest flight I’ve ever been on and it was the greenest, sorriest collection of fliers, probably ever.
Years ago my mother was on a flight to London with an English Football team on board. Heavy Drinking, of course.
She said they were loud. Probably cursing and swearing. But maybe Welsh? She was glad she couldn’t understand their “English”.
I guess they were thirsty.
Retired Seal Jocko Willink tells about the time he invited a group of Australian Special Forces to visit his Seal Platoon in Iraq. He was a little hazy about alcohol use, given the rules American forces were under, but the evening ended in fisticuffs.
The next morning, watching his men ice swollen knuckles, and clean dried blood out of nostrils, and certain they had given as good as they got, he became concerned that he had just caused an international incident that would end his Naval Career, when the Aussies complained about how they had been treated as guests of the Seals. With some trepidation he called the Aussie the commander, who told him “My lads had a great time, and can’t wait for you to invite them again.”
As I was reading your comment, I anticipated the punchline; I wasn’t disappointed. LOL
perhaps, but
maybe you were just the lightweight
😀 So the drunken Brit and Aussie stereotypes are true.
