Aeroplane passengers should be restricted to two drinks at airports, Ryanair chief executive Michael O’Leary has said.

Mr O’Leary said introducing alcohol limits at airports would help tackle a rise in disorder on flights.

Violent outbursts are occurring weekly due to alcohol, he said, especially when it is mixed with other substances.

“We don’t want to begrudge people having a drink,” he told the Daily Telegraph.

“But we don’t allow people to drink-drive, yet we keep putting them up in aircraft at 33,000ft.”

    I imagine being aggressive towards anyone would get you in trouble, maybe it’s just a U.S. thing, but getting in trouble on a plane is one of the last places Id want it. Even just the airport, it’s a confined area with minimal exits and lots of security/armed police/k9 units…

    I can’t imagine if they land a plane somewhere because of you that you won’t hear the end of it. Maybe I’m just paranoid and it’s a lot more lax than I feel it is when I am there.
