They don't track who they've given a drink to? Interesting.

Though, I suppose there would be some people flying who wouldn't want the
freebie, and could give theirs to someone else anyway.

Southwest Airlines has a class of ticket called 'Business Select'. This
ticket typically allows you to board the plane first, and because SWA
doesn't have assigned seating means you have your pick of the seats on
the plane. But there is quite an additional benefit.

You also get a free drink ticket. But they seem to have forgotten
something in the implementation of this: Being your drink coupon is
issued to you when you print your boarding pass. It's also printed
whenever you *reprint* your boarding pass!

So if you feel like getting drunk on your flight, just print seven or
eight boarding passes, and you'll have a good flight. I tried this a
couple of weeks ago on a flight from San Diego to Kansas City, and I had
myself 4 free drinks no problem.
