FWIW - I've gotten way better service on UEX for the past year than mainline....
Perhaps todays miracle flight from RSW to EWR was a bridge too far -- watching all the wheelchair folks run off the plane in EWR just grinds me the wrong way...
A lazy crew member would realize giving the whole can was less effort because they're less likely to be bothered for a refill or on a subsequent pass (or...eeek...between passes)
That said I remember growing up having to ask for the whole can (or not asking and only getting a cup) but over the past 5-10 years it's not been an issue -- sometimes ice or no; frequently in First it's offered ("would you like to keep the rest of the can with you?") or just dropped off which some may argue as tacky but I don't particularly care and personally like having the can near by so I can pace my own consumption
