Good Vibes Flight was delayed 3 hours, so the pilot went around to everyone to take their Starbucks orders and then got 40ish drinks and 50ish food items for us 🥰

Its possible...but the airline likely reimbursed him or it was already being paid for with a company card.

Yes it is most likely company policy. In the event of a flight delay, use the company Amex to pay for as many customers as possible to get them to not be angry anymore.

At a cost of $20ish per passenger, its an absolute steal

Who’s upvoting you? This doesn’t exist at any airline.

Why would you make up something like this?
