Delta Flight Attendant Charged With Sneaking 1,500 Mini Liquor Bottles To Sell On Craigslist

According to the police in Memphis, TN, when a flight attendant for Delta Air Lines left work, she would sometimes pick up some mini liquor bottles from the plane and bring them home. Taking a few bottles every day really adds up, and ultimately she has been charged with taking 1,500 bottles –– not to drink, but to sell on Craigslist.

I would ask some questions if I saw a Craigslist ad hawking mini booze bottles, but maybe she had a plausible-sounding explanation. Maybe people buying booze off Craigslist don’t especially care about the source. What authorities did announce, though, and the Associated Press reported, was that those bottles cost $8 each during a flight, and are worth every penny if you hate flying.

The local district attorney has indicted her on charges of theft, unlawful sale of alcohol, and unauthorized transportation of alcohol.
