"Deja vu all over again" - guess we will soon see in real time whether the return of alcohol either helps or exacerbates the behavior of some percentage of SWA passengers whose actions help disclose that their mental age is nowhere close to their chronological age. For the sake of flight attendants, I hope that everything goes smoothly.

How many fistfights have happened so far today? I know it's early but based on some of the responses in this thread I'm sure we've already seen full on brawls after a morning mimosa

The altercations are all right here. They are virtual. You might even call them imaginary.

At the risk of being moved to peanut gallery.... but based on responses here and the general media, it should be an all out brawl in the skies today. LOL!

Based on the responses here, no one will be getting a drink because of "turbulence" and FA's that just play on their phone the whole flight.

Actually, I have some drink coupons so I probably will! However, I have never been one to cause much trouble in flight or on the plane, just follow the rules and "go along to get along." I wasn't too worried about my behavior, what about you?

Interesting language on the back of my electronic boarding pass (In Biz Select) for a flight tomorrow…

On flights travelling 176 miles or more, one complimentary premium drink on the day of travel. Flights travelling 175 miles or less only serve water. If you have a coupon that expired in 2020 or 2021, we will honor it through December 31, 2022.

Lots and lots of Biz Select BP’s still on my phone…they will be used…

Nothing confusing about that.

I tend to delete BP after the trip. Is there a way to get those back. (IOS)

My iPhone stores them under "Expired Passes". If you've deleted them out of there I'm not sure if you can get them back.

Coke Zero is back on the menu! That makes me happy. Now, if they would just bring back Diet Dr. Pepper...

I have a flight tomorrow I'll see how it goes. I don't think I have any hope of using all of the coupons I have.

BTW any word on if new coupons will be forthcoming?
