It may be illegal to drink these on a plane (from one of the comments):<p>"Sec. 121.575
Alcoholic beverages.<p>(a) No person may drink any alcoholic beverage aboard an aircraft unless the certificate holder operating the aircraft has served that beverage to him."<p><a href="http://www.airweb.faa.gov/Regulatory_and_Guidance_Library%5CrgFAR.nsf/0/4169CCE6717F88B386256BC9004338B6?OpenDocument" rel="nofollow">http://www.airweb.faa.gov/Regulatory_and_Guidance_Library%5C...</a>
Classic. I just finished a rotation-based training program, and this is how my co-workers and I got through the constant travel. The TSA never took any issue with it, and many folks were quite amused/inspired by it.
I think TSA should encourage passengers to drink alcohol during flights: a drunk passenger is technically incapable of being a terrorist.<p>We're lucky the haven't introduced a mandatory in-flight sleep pill.
