I’ve emailed my friend who is a flight attendant – he should be able to provide some clarifcation to your question. I will post his reply as soon as I hear from him.

Spongie,
My friend works for United Airlines, and since this is a US based carrier they serve alchohol only to those 21 years or older, regardless of where the plane is in the world. I suspect that is probably the policy with many major airlines – based upon their home countries legal drinking age….however, I’ve been on enough flights and have seen non US airlines serve alchohol to pretty much anyone who has asked for it.
Regards,
