Some major airlines are now banning the sale of alcohol on their flights due to COVID-19 concerns.
Airline officials say the idea is to limit how long passengers have masks off, while sipping drinks.
Delta says alcohol won't be allowed on domestic flights as it tries to stop the spread of the virus.
