when i looked younger i remember, after requesting liquor from the beverage cart, being asked "what year were you born?" by the FA as if they were playfully quizzing me to make sure i was of appropriate drinking age. i agree it would be inappropriate to be carded during service but the crewmember was tactful and i thought it was cute.
