Overheard from FR In F to DTW to YYZ - Toronto
OK Folks, has anyone heard this before
Tonight we board DTW to YYZ, FA before departure goes around requesting FC drink orders. She then says ``I hope you realize that as we pass into Canada I can not serve any Alcohol on the last half of the flight (after 30 minutes elapsed) because of Canadian Rules. So the last 30 minutes will be alcohol fee`. In 16 Years of flying to YYZ I have never heard this - is this reality or shenanigans. where the FA`s make their own rules. Please do not flame the poster. Yes the last 20+- minutes of the flight are for locking up the galley after the pilot makes there announcement - double ding.
The way it was said was that Delta (foreign carrier) could not serve alcohol in CA airspace.Many FA`s will not serve PDB. It is hit or miss. Most foreign carriers do serve into CA - KLM-AF-CEA-Cathy-Ba etc.
Is the FA correct or 1000+ flights into YYZ did not follow the rules. This was a GO Jet FA.
