Seriously what has gotten into some of the FAs lately? I understand there are times when it is not safe for the crew to be out of their jumpseats, possible catering mishaps and other considerations but it didn't appear that was the case. FAs did a quick beverage run in F but I imagine the Y passengers were disappointed. Several years back I remember taking the former NW FNT-DTW (11 minutes, 54 mile flight) on A320 and the FAs still managed to provide water while we were on the ground.
Annoying? Yes.

Threadworthy? No.

JMHO, of course.
