When asked, the FA said there was no change in policy--I could get wine upon request.

My cynical side thinks this may be a cost reduction move with the new year--has anybody else noticed this or was my experience an outlier?
I think it makes sense not to put it on the tray. I dont drink wine and the empty glass always got in the way of the booze.
