Hello, Chicago Wine Lovers!

This was first a question of mine when I used to fly PanAm from Europe to the U.S.

The response I always got was pretty much "Don't ask, don't tell".

I think it is officially frowned upon (there are probably FAA/airline regulations).

If it's domestic U.S., you can probably wait. Or befriend a FA.

If it's international, they serve wine in Y (screwtop), so if you bring your own:

1) You need to get your corkscrew past security

2) Open your nice bottle of wine with discretion and enjoy
