Surprising. yes its' a bit off topic.. but the factors within cabin and on the ground is about the same. If everyone is lax on the ground and in the air, may explain why FA's don't bother checking ID serving alcohol to minors.

I agree, you're either an adult or you aren't. In Canada, it's 18 year of age or older.. I'm surprised the states have it at 21.
