All Nippon Airways Offers Draft Beer At $11.30 Per Glass

"Japan`s All Nippon Airways announced it Friday it will become the first airline in the world to offer draft beer in-flight beginning Tuesday. The airline said the draft beer will cost about $11.30 per glass and 20 cups will be available on each domestic flight, except Tokyo to Okinawa flights, which will have 40 glasses, the Japan Probe reported Friday."

A glass of freshly poured draft beer tastes a lot better than a can of beer, but at $11.30 per glass I think I will pass. At that steep price by the time you develop a beer buzz, you will have spent your children`s college education fund. All Nippon Airways is elitist, they should offer the draft beer at a price that everybody can afford. If a working Joe is sitting next to a businessman who is guzzling one draft beer after another while he sips from a can of beer, we might witness an act of air rage. But I commend All Nippon Airways for thinking outside the box, and trying to make flying a more comfortable experience for their customers. Flying is such a nightmare experience that every passenger should be entitled to a free glass of draft beer. Follow Robert Paul Reyes on Twitter: http://twitter.com/robertpaulreyes
