Regardless of CC, turning up at the gate to a delayed flight carrying any sort of drink prepared by a barista is not cool.
It's unprofessional and disrespectful to our paying passengers.
If you are walking through the terminal to your flight that has been delayed, at least attempt look like you care about the pax.
If you need to delay your arrival at the A/C to comply with CC recommendations, do so before immigration where nobody knows what flight you are operating.
Well, if I am thirsty, I can buy a drink if I want.
Coffee / tea / food on the plane is crap and generally not edible.
If I am late, it's probably not because I am being unprofessional, it's probably because I WAS being professional in ensuring I stick to the rules, trying to show up properly rested etc.
The fact that I am late is most likely due to some non pilot operational muppet who can't do there jobs properly
Whats not cool is uniformed pilots having to find a bench to nap on in the terminal because that self same non pilot operation muppet is too tight to spring for a hotel room.
