Do airplanes ask for ID for alcohol and do they charge?

Question

I'm 20 y.o., taking a 15 hour flight to india, on Air India...doies anyone know if they will allow me to get alcohol on the plane? Or will they ask for ID? And is it free?

Answer 1

If they think you are underage they will ID you, they decide what the age is based on what country/province/state you leave from.  If the age is 18 in your area then that's the age.  And yes they do charge. unless you are in first class. most first classes give you free alcohol...within moderation.

Answer 2

Yes they ask for id. So far this year I've flown from California to Thailand and New York to Florida. I never fly without drinks and they id me everytime and I'm 26. No it's not free unless you are in first class. Just go to the doctor and get lorazepam, it's just as good in my opinion if you are nervous flying. I usually mix it with alcohol but I dont recommend you doing that, you could die and I don't want to be sued for telling you that.

Answer 3

The 'airplanes' won't ask you for ID, but it's inflight personnel will.  Traveling aboard a US Airline, the legal age for purchasing and consuming alcohol is 21.  The price for alcoholic beverages differs from airline to airline, and is generally $5. a drink.

Check with Air India for details on their rules regarding the legal age for consumption of alcohol aboard their flights.

Answer 4

Liquor is only sold to 21+ and ID is required, and it is not free in economy. It is not available to 20-year-olds in First class, either. Sorry.

Answer 5

I'm sorry airplane cant not talk did you think they did?

I never meet airplane that could talk have you?

Answer 6

don worry you are above 18, you will be served alcohol gratis on board without any id.
