When I asked for the drink while waiting to take off, the FA told me that he hadn't had Pibb onboard for awhile. I did finally get a glass on a return flight from IAH-DTW, and those FAs had no problem finding me a can.

If there are any other Pibb Extra or Mr.Pibb drinkers out there, I'm wondering how often Pibb is being served, and if anyone has heard that it is being phased out. I sure hope not, I still haven't forgiven CO for taking away my Diet Dr.Pepper!
I never find Pibb on ANY of the international flights or the few domestic ones I am one and it pisses me off...

I also hate their limited selection of teas I pack my own as CO only has lipton.

And as a tea with lime and coke with lime drinker I hate that they don't stock limes on their plane except one or two.... that lasts me one drink...

I could give a rats butt about their wine selection.... how about basic tea and drinks for once, atleast on my other international legs the other carriers seem to know about atleast some variety in tea selection.

But besides that I love CO... ^ ^ ^
