They always seemed grateful - on one flight I saw the crew divide them out into cups and hand them out among themselves (every crew member including the captain came and thanked me which was a bit much but nice) and on SAS the crew had some and offered them to kids on the flight too.

I thought it was a nice touch considering I spent almost as much time with them as I did with my family at that time.
Yeah I like this - Similarly the same lady works on checkout at our local Tesco every week and we’ll buy her a gift at Christmas.

I’ve had a thought about giving CC a gift and have decided that my approach would be to keep a box of chocolates, and if the service is good then i’d hand them over as a thank you at the end of the flight. If not… nomnomnom
