Airline CEO Calls for Strict Penalties on Passengers Flouting Airport Rules; Legal Action on the Horizon

O’Leary points out that airside bars aren’t bound by usual licensing hours, allowing them to serve at the crack of dawn. Who needs a beer at 5am, anyway? 🍻 If O’Leary has his way, airports will introduce a sensible two-drink limit. After all, being drunk on a plane isn’t just a bad look—it’s a criminal offence, with fines up to £5,000 or even prison time! 😲

Ryanair isn’t just talking the talk. They’re taking serious action to recover losses from disruptive passengers. Last year, they filed for €15,000 in damages after a Dublin to Lanzarote flight went haywire.
