DOT to DL: No waivers / no favors.
Are people insane? Serve me alcohol on the plane or let me off so I can drink in the terminal. Prisoners are treated better than people trapped on planes. I don't care about crews going illegal because of time problems. Screw the airlines. Why is this not an issue in Europe? The pax do not tolerate it, and the airlines plan ahead. Not like here where the airlines want "exemptions" and "delays". Ridiculous.
