Long story short, she files a lawsuit claiming JetBlue should have

It's not JetBlue's fault, but airlines shouldn't be serving any alcohol at
all.


Sure. Lose even more revenue. Brilliant solution.


Is it really more revenue?


Yes. Why do you think they serve them?

Maybe a dozen people on any one flight spring for a drink or two. Minus the
fact that FC is all freebies. They seem like they may cancel each other.
Then a situation like a diverted flight comes up. (This wasn't the first
alchol related diversion.) Big bucks were lost on the diversion.


Ridiculous. There is no free lunch. FC passengers pay for their
drinks in their tickets. You have no idea how many drinks they serve
on a flight. You just made that up as if you knew. And a diversion
is extremely rare.
