She can't get it for me in writing before takeoff but she will get it sent to me. She thinks it's a state regulation and she's not willing to jeopardize her job or the jobs of the crew.
BS. Have her check with her on the ground superior.

Gate agent is backing her up.

Is Ground Supervisor something different?

She's dug in too deep she wouldn't back down if Smisek called her.

I hate, I hate, I hate, I hate, agents/reps who make up their own regulation just because they happen to think that they know everything.

You can ask for the captain, but very rarely will they overrule.

They did it without giving you any problems? Just you asked and they did?

"Well, it's against our policies."

"You know how bad that KSML looks? Yeah, it tastes even worse."

"[Giggle] ok, key me check with my supervisor."

Yup, that's exactly how I got US to heat up our BYOK.
Asked the F/A if she wanted to try some Stogel's for herself and she found a way around the "policy"...

LH was a pleasure with BYOK. The nicer service was actually worth having angle flat seat.
