They still only pressurize to 10,000 feet. Either you’re huge, or you have a large tolerance for alcohol

You are unfortunately right...our society far too often mentally equates “cheap” with “asshole”. The guy trying to con free drinks is expected (whether or not it’s an appropriate stereotype) to be the same guy who gets shitfaced and have a crappy attitude.

You just gave me the best flashback to my time living in Australia ever...

You don know there’s a difference between:

Easiest way around getting *caught* drinking your own booze on the plane:
