Free Booze on Continental Airlines?

I am flying to NYC in a couple of weeks with Continental Airlines.
Has anyone flown with them recently and if so, can you advise me if the booze is free?
Plan to start the party early. :beer:

Sorry but neither Continental or American Airlines have free booze. They also don't let you bring your own alcohol to drink onboard. We get around this by pre-filling innocent looking water bottles with gin and tonic - hic! You'll need to bring your own mixer to the airport as they don't sell any at Heathrow or Gatwick. Heathrow currently does really cheap gin for about GBP6 per litre.
Also, just be aware that the food on Continental is totally inedible so you may want to bring your own!
Another tip is to get yourself as far forward in the plane as possible and make a run for immigration as quick as you can when you land. The lines can be very long now they do the fingerprinting and photographing.
Have a great trip!0
