I was on the BA 065 last Monday coming down to NBO. Whilst I don’t normally drink the stuff, in the interests of my comrades on this site, I asked for a Kir Royale, notwithstanding the fact that it was not an option on the drinks menu. This request was met with a “what’s that?” before the crew member went away to ask the CSD, or whatever they are called nowadays. He returned to tell me that Kir Royales have been removed as a Drinks option but if I was “desperate” for this going forward, I should feel free to bring on my own bottle of Kir and the crew would be happy to make up a Kir Royale. So, now you know!
Maybe I am getting old, but this use of the word “desperate” is quite condescending. They could have merely offered to make you one with your bottle of cassis.
