It may be illegal to drink these on a plane (from one of the comments):

"Sec. 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."

Just mix it up with OJ post-security. Also, can finish before boarding, the drink of choice will still be cheaper that airport bars.

Classic. I just finished a rotation-based training program, and this is how my co-workers and I got through the constant travel. The TSA never took any issue with it, and many folks were quite amused/inspired by it.

I think TSA should encourage passengers to drink alcohol during flights: a drunk passenger is technically incapable of being a terrorist.

We're lucky the haven't introduced a mandatory in-flight sleep pill.

Well, they are certainly not an observant Muslim. That suggests the odds are better they are not a terrorist.

Depends on amount though, kamikaze used to drink (one shot?) before their last mission
