Okay, not as sexy as the free airline ticket and Hyatt points I gave away last month, but a free drink still beats a sharp stick in the eye.
I have 10 vouchers for a free drink on a United Airlines flight. If you’re interested, leave a comment in this thread between now and Friday, February 15th. If there are more than 10 respondents I’ll draw randomly, though if I see a particularly crafty or amusing reply that might just win a free drink all on it’s own. :)
I’m heading to Milan on United in June. Since I’m a nervous flyer, the free drinks could definitely be considered “medicinal”. Thanks for offering these!

Yay! Almost out of vouchers. The old Continental ones which often generate interesting FA reactions when tendered.

Will be flying cross-country to SFO soon and as Silver I know I won’t be upgraded so I might need something to make it easier.

Excellent. I happen to be flying UA on Feb 16 at 6 AM and a bloody or coffee con Bailey’s sounds amazing (though I reckon the chits wouldn’t make it in time). In any event, I fly UA enough that I am sure I would find time to enjoy a beverage or several.
Thanks a lot!

United does Jägerbombs right?
How about a voucher to check?

I fly with 3-month-old twins to Mexico with my wife in February on United.
Vouchers would be a nice handout to the people around me as compensation for any crying that may occur!

Drew, gotta admit flying with twins definitely moves you up the list.

Mexico? That’ll be cake. My best friend is getting married in Japan in April and possibly against my better judgement, I got award seats in economy from TUL – NRT with my wife, and our 3yr old and our new one will be 7 months. 18 hrs each way:(

I’m headed to Istanbul in coach on United at the beginning of March. Think they’d let me redeem for a bottle of raki to start the trip off right?

It seems to be the norm that there will be a screaming kid in my row. No matter where or when I fly.
Last flight from FRA, beer was the only answer.

I’m a United pilot and I only ever fly drunk. One of these will give me just the kick I need to brave the friendly skies.

A free drink will help me deal with the limited space when the inconsiderate person in front of me decides to put there seat back to get the additional 2 inches of space!

I’m going to Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan in March and April. It won’t be the first time there for me.So…….. It will be an “adventure” and the drink voucher will certainly put me in the right frame of mind to deal with everything!

Can’t believe that you thought you might get only 10 comments total
Would love a drink ticket, which I would give to my hubby who doesn’t like to fly. I drag the poor fellow on the plane and promptly get him drink to relax. Works every time! Thanks.

Perry Platypus, both of us are going to need a bottle when Dougie comes to town.
