I Don't Drink On Airplanes

Despite having more drink tickets than I know what to do with (Usually I just toss them but my last bunch I sent to Queen B) I never drink when flying. When I say never, I mean never, I have never had alcohol in flight.

Tuesday, Laura was unnerved by my computer bag since all the pockets were open and it looked like I would lose a number of things at any moment. It is always this way but since items were clearly at risk I decided to clean out my bag and zip up some of the pockets. This morning at the airport (when the bag cleaning began) I discovered all these unused drink tickets.














Other Items of interest? 2 necklaces, 2 pairs of earrings, my camera, my new HD video camera, Bluetooth head set, portable charger, 2 small gifts for Diane

But back to the point, I don't drink on airplanes.....ever.

Neither do I!! Because if the plane crashes and I need to climb out of the burning wreckage, I want to be sober. Ya know?

I usually drink on my flights, but no more than one or two.

I have ever drank alcohol on a plane. No particular reason, just haven't.

Paula said...

make that "never"

All this baggage for a girl who doesn't carry a purse?

I drank once on a SWA flight from Love Field to San Antonio and only because the people in the row with me offered to buy me one. It turns out that one of those little bottles of liquor is enough for like two drinks and that is WAY too much for me to drink that quickly in that short of a period of time.

I probably won't drink on a flight again.

I'm also surprised how much baggage you have for not carrying a purse.

wow. I am definitely a flight drinker. In contrast to Andrea, I think a can of Bloody Mary mix is too much for one bottle of Vodka, so I always ask for two :)

Bianka brings up a great point...but I figure if the plane crashes, I'm screwed, and hopefully the alcohol numbs the pain :)

I love my gifts!

I will drink on airplanes as long as I do not have to drive at the location where I am landing.

Im sure we could use some of these tickets on our flight to NY this coming weekend.... Im still so sad that I am missing HCBC weekend :-(

you would drink if the new HD camera fell out

If you need to get rid of some of those I can take them off your hands. I don't travel quite as frequently as you, but I find that buying the bloke next to me a beer goes a long way.
