Can you get alcohol on a morning flight?

Airlines have the right to refuse to sell alcohol to any passenger on any flight. However, there's no law that states you cannot drink or purchase alcohol on morning flights. Any airline that ordinarily sells alcohol will usually allow you to purchase and drink alcohol, no matter what time of the day you're flying.
