in flight purchases
Corbel...I think you missed the point. When a business is issued a license to do business they are required to obey the laws of that state. The money I use says that this note is LEGAL tender for all debts public and private. Alaska airlines feels that money is not acceptable for debts incurred while on board. It's obvious that Alaska can dictate policy over-riding what my goverment says and what the federal reserve says.I fully understand that its easier for the flight attendants to not handle money etc....that is not the point.. In these times of diminishing revenues they should be bending over backwards to provide sterling service to the flying public, to ensure they get repeat business. What would you do if you went to your local supermarket and was faced with the same poorly thought out and mis guided policy...? You would be shopping where they do give you the option of paying with greenbacks.
