Am I being pedantic or is this a bit to relaxed.
I think they're supposed to wear the tie all the time, the only thing that gets swapped out is when they change out of the jacket before service, as far as I know.
What sector was it? Curious as I usually fly from Dublin, which is quite short, and usually the Champagne is cracked but I pour it myself. All subsequent drinks (and there are always subsequent drinks, even on a Dublin!) are also self-pour. I have no issue with that at all, to be fair. If I was drinking something else, I'd quite like to mix it as I like it.
