Ryanair is banning booze, but only on a flight from Glasgow to the vibrant home of the summer club scene Ibiza.
The ultra low cost airline Ryanair has told passengers travelling from Glasgow Prestwick to the Spanish sunshine and party isle that they will no longer be able to take alcohol on board.
Bosses confirmed yesterday this the Prestwick - Ibiza service was the only one of their flights to be slapped with the new restrictions.
In an email sent to passengers flying to Ibiza, the airline says “Customers will not be allowed to carry alcohol on board and all cabin baggage will be searched at boarding gates.
“Any alcohol purchased in airport shops or elsewhere must be packed in a suitable item of baggage, which will be tagged and placed in the aircraft hold free of charge. Customers attempting to conceal alcohol will be denied travel without refund or compensation.”
Many are not surprised by this action from the cheap airline, September last year a video emerged showing drunk passengers chanting, swearing and stamping their feet on the flight. In 2013 the flight had to be diverted to Beauvais airport, near Paris, because of drunk passengers causing trouble.
Ryanair said: “The comfort and safety of our customers and crew is our No1 priority and we will not tolerate unruly behaviour at any time.”
