Interesting—at PHL and DCA, the ACs start serving paid and complimentary alcohol for on-premises consumption at the earliest time local law permits the sale of alcohol for on-premises consumption. To the extent that clubs in airports like DFW and ATL start earlier, I assume they begin serving comp drinks immediately after they open because local law does not treat the distribution of unpriced drinks as a form of serving alcohol on-premises. However, if those clubs don't begin serving comp drinks until after they open, but before they begin serving paid drinks, I assume it's just an airline (or airport) policy that could change at any time.
