A flight attendant has been charged with stealing hundreds of miniature bottles of liquor from flights she worked on and then selling it online. She sneaked the little bottles of rum, gin, and whiskey into her bag at the end of flights, investigators said.

Rachel Trevor, 28, was a Memphis based employee of Endeavor Air, a regional affiliate of Delta Air Lines. She is accused of stealing nearly 1,500 50-milliliter bottles, ABC News reports. Trevor listed the alcohol on Craigslist for US $1 a bottle. The bottles typically sell for about US $8 on board.

Trevor 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.
