A pilot on a Southwest Airline plane sent out a hilarious message congratulating his passengers for managing to drink all of the alcohol available on the flight.
The flight was travelling from Oakland, California, to Kansas City, Missouri, when the captain made the brilliant announcement.
This unusual goal was achieved in the relatively short three-hour-20-minute flight.

Sports journalist, Jimmy Durkin revealed the plane contained lots of Raiders’ football fans, who were dressed in the team’s colours, according to WPXI news.
He described the passengers as ‘not particularly rowdy’ and explained there were ‘a decent amount of folks in Raiders gear.’
He said:
Pretty standard fare for a flight to a city where the Raiders are playing.
Announcement on flight to Kansas City congratulates the entire aircraft for wiping them completely out of booze. Yep, it's a Raiders flight.

Regardless of whether this is standard behaviour or not, to get a special ‘congratulation’ message from the pilot, is still an impressive accomplishment.
