Someone at catering must be hitting the bottle... (other airlines items)

Flying UA JFK-LAX in C this weekend, catering boarded Delta Airlines coffee mugs and Northwest Airlines wine glasses. Now I know they want to get the word out about their merger but this is a bit ridiculous.

The flight attendants were understandably embarrassed. The coffee mugs were non-descript (the Delta logo is on the underside of the mug - I only noticed it because the design wasn't the normal UA coffee mug.

I could somewhat understand the coffee mug oopsie, since the mugs are so rarely used on UA flights to begin with. The wine glasses were another story. They had the Northwest logo on them.

Last month we were treated to American Airlines plastic cups on an LAX-LAS flight on Ted. Good times.
