Did they really run out or just lock the cupboards? 🙂

Given the behaviour of groups of South Asian men on planes when confronted with 'free' alcohol, that is what I would have done.

you sound like a real bundle of fun, what's up with you for gods sake?

A number of off topic posts have been removed for spelling police comments and some bickering. Can you please discuss the topic.

"The Medical Association of Surat would like to welcome all the heavy drinkers on the flight to our medical facilities to treat your livers and kidneys." 😁 Ignorance about the effects of alcohol consumption on the body is bliss, I suppose.

Its a real shame people some folks do not have any sense of humor. There was no racist slur!

Indeed it did say that and it was changed but posts that commented on the original were left in place.

Yes, it was. I've seen that in pop-up notifications.

Don't most flights carry WAY more than Bt70000 worth of alcohol?

China Airlines of Taiwan used to.

USD2000 is almost nothing. China Air used to provide premium brands, and all you could drink.

Yes common on here

[Briggsy]

They whine, they cajole, they try to get as stupid drunk as possible, they negotiate, they become a real pain in the arse, they ignore anything they don't want to hear but over all

 

they continue to ask 700 more times after being told "No."

 

Easier to just bring a limited amount on board and run out quickly.

[Hanuman2547]

When I read the headline, I initially thought it was a group of Hash House Harriers on the flight.  It appears that is not the case.

Exactly what I wondered if selling alcahol you are probably talking of 15000 baht of stock

I have seen personally the behaviour of  Westerners when on holiday in Europe on board planes, so please spare us your condescending remarks of "South Asian" men and alcohol. 

[Deserted]

Probably what happened was they forgot to go and ask the pilots for some. They've usually got a good few bottles of whiskey in the cockpit.

It would have been fine but for the guy who kept ringing the bell to buy all the stewardesses a drink...
