A flight attendant has been charged with swiping hundreds of miniature bottles of liquor from flights she worked on and then sold the booze online.
Rachel Trevor, 28, was a Memphis based employee of Endeavor Air, a regional affiliate of Delta Air Lines and is accused of stealing nearly 1,500 50-milliliter bottles, ABC News reports.
She sneaked bottles of rum, gin, and whiskey into her bag at the end of flights, investigators said.
Trevor then listed the booze on online marketplace Craigslist for $1 a bottle.
The bottles are typically sold for $8 each onboard the plane.
She faces charges including theft of property over $10,000, unlawful sale of alcohol and unauthorized transportation of alcohol.
"Endeavor Air expects nothing short of the highest standard of integrity from our employees and takes seriously any activity that falls short of that expectation. This employee is no longer employed by the airline. We will continue to work with authorities as needed," the company said in a statement.
