UK airline bans six ‘drunk’ passengers after trouble on flight

Jet2 said the group caused problems on a flight from Newcastle to Tenerife on Saturday. The airline has banned three persons for a year and is refusing to fly another three home from the holiday island.

The company said: “This group was rude and aggressive to our cabin crew after drinking illicit alcohol, and they should be in no doubt that the consequences of such behaviour will not be accepted. 

We want our customers to have an enjoyable flight experience without the actions of a disruptive few spoiling it and we will take all necessary action to stamp it out.” 

The company is asking for duty-free spirits sold at airports to be sealed in bags.
