A some thought i should take the Ball and go outside and try to Settle this thing right now a he said. Ann Landers dear Ann Landers whenever my husband flies on business he goes first class so he can have an unlimited number of free drinks. His pattern is As follows he has two Beers before boarding a flight from Chicago to Dallas about 2vi hours. When beverages Are offered on the plane he orders two Beers immediately so he wont have to wait for the second one. A Short time later he asks for two glasses of wine. The flight attendants serve him these drinks no questions asked. When he gets off the plane he drives a rental car to. The hotel in town. If he should kill someone will the Sidjae be liable this worries me because i have never seen airline personnel refuse a drink to anyone no matter How Drulik the passenger was. Smoking is no longer permitted on planes thank heavens but apparently passengers can get All the booze they want. Why worried wife in Illinois dear worried wife my office contacted James m. Guyette executive vice president of Field services at United airlines George Mueller vice president of customer service at american airlines and Robert Harper manager of Public relations at Delta air lines in Atlanta. All three said the same thing. The airlines have Alert Well trained personnel and no passenger who appears to be inebriated is permitted to get on the plane. They do not set a limit on the number of drinks a passenger May have but flight attendants Are taught to recognize the signs of Over imbibing. If passengers exhibit slurred speech belligerence or unsteadiness or Are talking unusually loud and using profanity they Are told they May not have any More alcohol. Although in a a frequent flier in be never seen it done but All three airlines said they be received letters of complaint from disgruntled passengers whose drinks were Cut Oft. I have never heard of an airline being sued because an intoxicated passenger got into an Accident while driving from the Airport into town. The possibility however seems very real to me. As a lifelong Bluenose total abstained i May not be competent to judge but in my opinion two drinks should be enough for anybody before lunch or dinner and after that one Glass of wine is plenty. Dear Ann Landers my Mother is 67 and seems to be in excellent health. Although she is a Little forgetful she loses her keys a Loti am reasonably certain there is nothing wrong with her mind.

When Uncle a a Jerry momus older brother celebrated his 50th wedding anniversary she sent him a sympathy card and wrote a you deserve a medal for staying with that Battle Axall these his wife saw the card and blew a Gasket. Mom said she has no sense of humor. What do you say Ann new Jersey dear n a i say 20 Wallops with an old joke Book for people who say mean and hurtful things and then when the victim complains ask a a where a your sense of humor a a plague on All their houses summer and Winter.
