I dunno whether that would improve the landings or not but I guess it’s worth a shot.

Good idea I guess but those expensive little plane bottles are not how these people are getting hammered…….

That sounds incredibly reasonable – what’s the longest Ryanair flight? If you *need* to chug three drinks on a 2 hour flight, you have a serious problem.

If anyone needs more than 1 or 2 pints to “settle the nerves” they should be on anti-anxiety meds.
Nothing worse than being stuck on a boozed up party bus flight. The noise I can handle with noise cancelling earphones but the risk of the flight being diverted because of the rowdyness is unacceptable.

I haven’t seen many people get steaming on a flight. It’s usually in that 2 hour window when people are at the airport bar. Meaning they are already hammered before boarding

I’m old enough to remember flights with a smoking section at the back. The argument was that everybody would stop flying if it was banned.
When it was banned what happened? Nothing except more pleasant flights for everybody else.
It would be the same with alcohol. Just ban it on flights and refuse to let pissed people through the gate.
Are people seriously going to stop flying because they can’t drink alcohol until they arrive at their destination?
PS: in case you haven’t guessed, I am a non-drinker and it is fkn disgusting to sit next to somebody who stinks of alcohol on a flight.
