Later on, I asked her again when the 'rule' was implemented, and another FA intervened and said it was recent change and if we kept on drinking she'd have to report us upon landing.

Such a bizarre experience.
Never knew drinking and flying was a crime.

In all seriousness, I can't seem to find that rule anywhere. In my opinion, what those FAs said was a bunch of baloney.
