Extension of Temp Liquor License Denied

Very good article jim, do you think the paper took advantage and tried to sway the readers and hid the real truth, anythings possible. Like my great great great uncle who marched Sherman to the shore used to say, candy from a big baby.

Is the licsence only required while in NM airspace? Also, I always thought that a licsence was required if you are charging for the drinks, in coach you charge, but in FC you dont exchange money to hand, so you would think that you would still be able to serve the front of the cabin...

please, tempe would see that as COSTING them money--why would they do that?

New Mexico's a joke

New Mexico is No. 1 in per capita alcohol-related traffic deaths, with 11.79 deaths per 100,000 people in 1996, the last year for which figures were available. That's 19 percent higher than Mississippi, the next highest state.

They got problems.

It's too bad people aren't accountable for their own actions, just like the baseball player that gets drunk and runs into a parked truck his family wants to sue the restaurant that served him some drinks, I'm sure he was drinking in the club house before that. make people accountable for their own actions don't blame other people.

Big deal . Just bring your own like they do on the Cancun flights.

That New Mexico doesn't have enough booze in the state to cauterize Dougie's liver?

😀

 

[Itestwell]

Ahhh, to be an American. Why should I be responsible for my own actions?

 

[Elevation]

What problem is that?

That New Mexico doesn't have enough booze in the state to cauterize Dougie's liver?

What are you referring to Elevation????

Have you been to NM? :down:

I have no doubt that it is done. But bringing (i.e.drinking) your own is a violation of Federal Aviation Regulations. Even though CUN is an international flight, the aircraft is operated under US FARs and must be in compliance:


FAR § 121.575 Alcoholic beverages.
(a) No person may drink any alcoholic beverage aboard an aircraft unless the certificate holder operating the aircraft has served that beverage to him.

(b) No certificate holder may serve any alcoholic beverage to any person aboard any of its aircraft who—

(1) Appears to be intoxicated;

(2) Is escorting a person or being escorted in accordance with 49 CFR 1544.221; or

(3) Has a deadly or dangerous weapon accessible to him while aboard the aircraft in accordance with 49 CFR 1544.219, 1544.221, or 1544.223.

(c) No certificate holder may allow any person to board any of its aircraft if that person appears to be intoxicated.

(d) Each certificate holder shall, within five days after the incident, report to the Administrator the refusal of any person to comply with paragraph (a) of this section, or of any disturbance caused by a person who appears to be intoxicated aboard any of its aircraft.

Drinks can't be served while departing/arriving in New Mexico (we only serve ABQ).

Alcohol can be served on flights that overfly NM.

There goes any chance of an ABQ-PHL flight! :down:
