Ryanair CEO Michael O'Leary has proposed a two-drink limit on passengers at airports before they board flights
Ryanair CEO Michael O' Leary ’s call for a two- drink limit on airport passengers would be very difficult to manage, an aviation expert has said."We don't want to begrudge people having a drink, but we don’t allow people to drink-drive, yet we keep putting them up in aircraft at 33,000 feet," he said.
"It not really a personal thing, they are not allowed to do it because they can be held accountable for it."Mr Corry said a drink limit would be"very difficult to manage" at airports."Everybody is in there running their business as businesses, they also tend to have different operating hours than your traditional publican."Where the real policing of this takes place is at the gate - if someone is too intoxicated, they will not be allowed board".
