my concern is not how well trained the crew is but with the way people in india treat the crew....i have seen enough instances of people thinking they are far superior & treating crew as if their sole purpose is to serve them just because they have bought a ticket....they don't listen to the crew & a prime example is the chaos while boarding a flight or getting up & trying to rush out of the flight the moment it lands....
last week on a bbi-del flight i saw a passenger yell at the stewardess because they ran out of non-veg options by the time the food cart reached his seat....a couple of months ago on a bom-del flight a passenger was giving the flight attendant a piece of his mind because he was having a headache & his preferred pain killer was not on board....what do you think people like this will do if they are denied alcohol????
a friend of mine is an air hostess with ai & she has told me countless horror stories of indian passengers being drunk on her flights....i have personally seen many instances of these passengers who have no control over their alcohol....
i'm not saying stuff like this does not happen outside india....it certainly does....but i have seen enough instances of indian passengers to convince myself that it would be a bad idea to serve alcohol on domestic flights....

the chances of it getting ugly in a small confined space are much more....
