Maybe it was the FA's first day and thought (s)he was pouring shots.

It would convey just the right image (literally and figuratively)

Perhaps if it were in a proper thin champagne flute it would look ok as it is a big glass there but my guess it was being rationed out to many.

I had equally pathetic servings to and from JNB at Christmas.

I'd be more worried by the fact that it looks totally flat

I had similar flying to JFK recently, with the added bonus that it had been sitting round for a while so it was warm and flat. Don’t think there was a lot more coming back so seems to be a new trend.

Genuine question. Did anyone say anything at the time? I would like "Dont be shy" even to get an explanation.

Same (though water rather than champagne) coming back from JNB. I assume a service standard somewhere requires the glasses not to be filled too much.
