To be honest, champagne is not really all that popular. I fly #1 on the S80 all the time and it is rare for someone to ask for champagne. If they do want some, I have found they ask for a mimosa, and usually they are non-revs. On my flights it seems folks want the Bloody Mary's and the Gin & Tonics.

Oh and do me a favor..... if you are going to ask for Glenlivet, please don't ask for it with Ginger Ale. I am amazed at the folks who want to drink a single malt with something other than ice. Yikes! I think they will hang you in Scotland for doing that.
the reason no one asks for champagne is because AA doesn't have any on domestic 2 class flights
