Flier of the friendly skies

At 35,000 feet

A few weekends ago I was doing a flight from Tampa to Vegas. I have been flying with Delta for awhile now and we see a lot of interesting things. People on this flight in particular always tend to want to start the fun a little early, if you know what I mean. There are three main drinks people ask for....a screwdriver, a bloody mary or coffee. Well, I guess someone screwed up and forgot to re-stock the BM mix because after I served a few we were totally out. I had 15 passengers who wanted bloody marys of course. Some of the passengers were pretty angry, but most understood. When you're at 35,000 feet there isn't much else you can do! I just tried to keep them happy and comfortable.

You did what you could. Dont be hard on yourself. The person who does the inventory made a mistake. Double check your supply before the plane leaves the ground. Safe flights to you.dottiekobak

I am sorry that happened. But maybe people are healthier not doing alot of alcohol drinking. Maybe something looked out for them. Let them down easy.

Poor ground crew. My flights never left without being serviced properly!!! Especially LAS flights. A no brainer.
