The idea that you don't know the sizes of typical wine bottles is the least believable thing I think I've ever seen you say. You might not recognize 187 right away if you don't encounter a lot of splits, but presumably you know 750 and can do basic math.

It just feels better in a big glass! Although it appears I should go one size smaller to white glass: https://www.wsetglobal.com/knowledge...for-champagne/

And how exactly was she going to rip you off if you elected to pay with miles?

If it's business travel, why should you care? <joke>
To me, it would be unreasonable to expect a full or even half bottle of Mot in a restaurant or bar for $14, so it would necessarily be just a split (or a glass if the word bottle didn't appear). DL doesn't subsidize the luxury bar alcohol served in SCs, but the prices generally seem fair compared to a city hotel bar, for example.

Free in Cathay/Singapore lounges - only in America does the religious right create laws against free drink.

How many people know how big a wine bottle is in the English system of measurement?
