Not strictly short haul (or it is now on the A320) and not champagne related but…15 mini red bottles flying back from Sharm El-Sheikh back in 2010 on a 772 in economy.
The missus was driving back from Gatwick so wasn’t drinking so managed to snaffle a few more for me.
Strangely, I can remember a lot about the flight, I also recall it was G-YMMB. We eventually got home, I then dug out about a foot of snow off an 80 foot shared driveway as the neighbours had been waiting for me to come back. Mission complete, I then went to the pub across the road for a few pints and a steak and kidney pie.
Not all superheroes wear capes.
