FOM addresses this in non-ambiguous language. (FOM 24.1.2 - won't cut and paste here as it's proprietary stuff)

If you use the PS seat, it's an off rotation deadhead, the answer is NO (no libations). Nor can you have any alcohol in your system.

Ditto if it's a PS seat to/from training.

Think this changed a year or two ago? (maybe 3?) I really do wonder what the incident/incidents were that precipitated the change? I looked it up a couple of months ago when a new-ish hire asked.

Fly safe.
