I’ve enjoyed at least my weight of Woodford aboard Alaska over the years. Miss the days of Glenlivet, tho.
One of the most oddball drink orders overheard from a young man seated next to me last week: coffee with Baileys and Woodford. FA served the coffee cup half full of coffee and the two minis. Young man poured both into the coffee. I would have asked what he called the concoction, but my mouth was too full of vomit.

I still miss my favorite Alaska Airlines cocktail: Bailey's and Crater Lake Hazelnut Espresso vodka on the rocks. I could down 3 of those on a SEA to LAX or LAS flight without blinking.

Well, they both have low ABVs, so the two of them together is only like one "big boy (or girl)" drink My "second dessert" was frequently the Crater Lake Vodka with fizzy water over ice, which made a lovely low alcohol soda.

Glenlivet may not be returning, but AS will be introducing Glenfarclas Single Malt Scotch Whisky among other new alcoholic beverage offerings as of March 2nd. 🙌🏼

They have Polar seltzer and tonic water onboard which is surprisingly high-quality for a plane. I usually get Woodford on the rocks and a can of seltzer, and I pour just a dash of seltzer in with each mini. It is just right for me
Back in the day when I was a new frequent flier on some other airline, I used to mix Woodford with Diet Coke. I shudder just thinking about it. What a waste of Diet Coke!!!
