STOP THE PRESSES THIS CANNOT BE TRUE. NO DONT TELL ME THIS. IT HAS NEVER HAPPENED SINCE THE FIRST FLIGHT IN AVIATION HISTORY HAS THIS HAPPENNED PLEASE PLEASE DONT TELL ...Anyone hear about this? F/A spot checked at customs, had 26 mini's in luggage, got fired supposedly.
Because of international liquor tax laws.Is 26 minis a record?
Why would it be a Customs violation?
Wow, that's a lot of Jack. You know, we get a really good deal on Jack at the CLT duty-free. I bought a THREE liter bottle for $55.00 with our discount. It's a humongous bottle and I don't even drink Jack, but it looks really cool on my bar. This F/A made a huge mistake, if it's true. The last male F/A who took a couple of red wine bottles, did get his job back after a while.I heard the same thing a couple of weeks ago. I was told (you know how rumors get distorted) that he had 25 Jack Daniels. How could someone be so stupid! If you're going to take a bunch of mini bottles, at least do it on a domestic flight where you don't have to go through customs. :down: He should be fired just for sheer stupidity alone.
One time, I came home from working Paris, and I found five Cuban cigars in my roll-aboard. I was like, whoa...is this my bag? The following week when I checked in to work CDG, I overheard the other LODO say, "Yeah, someone STOLE my cigars right out of my bag"! Apparently, she placed them accidentally in my bag. Thank goodniss my bag wasn't checked that day--no one would have believed me.This was a couple weeks ago.
Duh. Pour them into a water bottle. You can fit just under that amount of minis in a large water bottle, or eight splits of wine. Just saying.
that's your story and your stickin to it 😉One time, I came home from working Paris, and I found five Cuban cigars in my roll-aboard. I was like, whoa...is this my bag?

And then she had the nerve to ask me to pay for them since they were smoked immediately. $20.00 a piece! Mon Dieu...that's your story and your stickin to it 😉
Thanks🙂I would’ve vouched for you; you don’t seem like the stogie type.
