Yes, international and domestic business class receive complimentary drinks — including a variety of beers, wines and spirits to complement the food menu. Note that short flights might not offer a full drink service.

Yes, in 2026, complimentary beverages—including premium alcohol, fine wines, and artisanal soft drinks—remain a hallmark of the Business Class experience on almost all full-service airlines. Unlike Economy, where alcohol may be restricted or charged on domestic routes, Business Class passengers typically receive a "welcome drink" (often Champagne or a signature cocktail) before takeoff and have access to an "open bar" throughout the flight. In early 2026, several airlines like Air India and Qatar Airways have even upgraded their menus to include vintage spirits and tequila. However, it is a supportive note for 2026 travelers to be aware that on "Short-Haul" or "Regional" Business Class (common in Europe or the US), the selection might be more limited compared to Long-Haul "Flagship" service. Regardless of the route, you can expect high-quality coffee, tea, and premium juices to be available at no extra cost.
