A flight attendant shared on Reddit that she told a first-class couple she could not offer pre-departure drinks on their roughly 20-minute flight because of limited time. She wrote that she later saw the woman’s husband holding his phone toward her with the camera app open.
She described holding boarding on the jet bridge for about 12 minutes while catering and cleaning finished. After a few more minutes for pre-board passengers, she said it was roughly 15 minutes before departure.
