It seems that another airline in the USA has finally got a clue and is giving up drink tokens – or the silly “buy a drink” routine.
Step forward American Airlines.
Visitors to Admirals Club lounges inside the USA will be able to have free alcoholic drinks just like they do when you travel internationally.
This goes forward from 1st October.
Of course, this is not all alcoholic drinks – they will (like Continental) offer “Premium” drinks for purchase as well.
And lord help you if you dare to leave the bar without a tip.
Still it’s a positive move that will hopefully spread to other airlines. And yes, I am looking at you United….
