Airlines doesn't advice passengers to tip their flight crew. Staff are instructed not to accept tips and they are instructed to decline the first offer. After that all bets are off. I know the staff appreciates the tips and keeps their eye on you during the flight. You will be that one passenger that made their day and cared enough about them to give something.
That might earn you a free round of drinks or any request you make will be given priority. But I don't like the cash transactions and it might confuse things. Here's what I do and it usually puts me on the "friends" list for the flight staff. Give them chocolate! A fine bar of fancy chocolate that they can share with others. when you hand them the bard, suggest, this is a token of appreciation for their hard work.
This is simply the right thing to do, they are overworked, under appreciated and hate the food airlines serve nowadays. Just make sure not to make a scene about the whole thing. Happy Jetting Everyone!
