Ridiculous, can't be right
What would be the point in giving half measures, especially half a 250ml can of tonic?
if a person just wants a tonic water, do they also get a half can?
if you want another drink 2 hours later, do they bring you the other half of your can, someone else's can (both going a little flat by now), or open a fresh one?
But if you are sitting the other side of the curtain, you would get the whole double measures and full mixer as you are paying for them?

A couple of years ago I flew to Baku on Azerbaijan Airlines from LHR. During the bar service I asked for a Gin and Tonic. The crew member seemed a little unsure but went back to the galley. When she returned she gave me a glass full to the brim with gin and another full of tonic. No ice and no lemon. I was so stunned by this that I just didn't have the heart to call her back.
