Other beverages are free so I would argue the "beverage" refers to an alcoholic beverage. (in replace of the meal)

"You're into fruity drinks today!"

It's technically accurate, but it's due to the timing of the flight.

I was told quite adamantly recently by a FA, while on a narrow body ML flight, that JW Black is not catered in J on all domestic ML narrow body flights. Only the Red is catered in J on all domestic ML narrow body fights.

And yet on my 14 ML narrow body flights in J since then, JW Black has been well catered.

So does that FA work at the airport, or does Johnnie Walker work at the airport?

My experience was that Jazz (everywhere except the CRA) had red. But that changed, and now even Jazz has black. I've never seen red on mainline.

Cow, there is definitely red on mainline as well... at least in my last 18 mains line flights in the past week.

My experience with JW on AC is when DrunkCargo has ordered it.

I haven't flown with him in at LEAST two months.

So I'll certainly take your word for it.

I was just offering my experience.

Are you trying to make up for your pathetic 2016 performance?

Choice? This is not a choice. The conclusion/decision is already there. Who would take the red ?
