Not sure why I'm responding to this, but here goes...

Problem is that is such a judgement call. There are so many levels of "inebriation" from mild buzz to sloshy drunk. What I find annoying is when FA's use an arbitrary number of beverages are the sole measure. So on a six hour flight, when I get "that look" asking for my third beverage, and I'm doing nothing more than sitting in my seat working, it's annoying. Certainly a stumbling, slurring drunk shouldn't be given more booze (*maybe*).

Thankfully, most FA's abide by the "keep it comin'" rule. ^
