There are plenty of positives to flying first class. There’s more leg room, more personal space, and often outstanding service. Perhaps the best thing though, is the pre-departure beverage given to first class passengers. One passenger found themselves in hot water after trying to share the complimentary drinks. The passenger, who is referred to as “1A” by The Points Guy, took the American Airlines flight with his friends booked in economy. Once they boarded, 1A was seated in the front section, with his friends behind in economy.

1A tried asking for two more “double shots on ice” but the attendant noted that passengers could only order one drink at a time. Shrugging it off, 1A ordered a shot for himself and one for the stranger sitting alongside him. When the drinks came, 1A moved back into the economy cabin to share the drinks, where a flight attendant caught him red-handed. After returning to his seat, 1A told his friends to come collect the drinks from him instead. This didn’t sit well with the attendants either, who stopped the passengers before they could meet. After a brief confrontation, the flight was delayed on the runway. Slowly but surely, 1A gathered their things and left the flight. Moral of the story? If you’re lucky enough to fly first class, don’t share the alcoholic benefits.
