TUI Changes Alcohol Policy on Long-Haul Flights | Leicester News

TUI Airlines is cracking down on free booze for economy passengers on long-haul flights, charging for extras starting November 1st — but offering a £12.50 refund per leg for affected bookings. While some travelers are furious and vow to quit TUI, others support the move, blaming a few for ruining the experience for everyone. Meanwhile, Ryanair’s CEO is pushing for alcohol bans in airports before early flights, citing lounge overconsumption and delays as root causes — and their crew already have the power to limit drinks. With over 1,000 disruptive incidents logged this year alone, airlines are stepping up enforcement: drunk passengers face fines up to £5,000 and even jail time.
