Ryanair: 'Disruptive' passengers to face fines of £500
Ryanair has announced passengers who have to be taken off their aircrafts because of disruptive behaviour are to be fined £500.The Irish airline said said it hopes the fine will "act as a deterrent" to eliminate unacceptable behaviour onboard planes."It is unacceptable that passengers are made suffer unnecessary disruption because of one unruly passenger's behaviour," the airline said in a statement.Ryanair has previously pursued legal action against disruptive passengers.
The statement added: "To help ensure that our passengers and crew travel in a comfortable and stress-free environment, without unnecessary disruption caused by a tiny number of unruly passengers, we have introduced a £500 fine, which will be issued to any passengers offloaded from aircraft as a result of their misconduct."
Last year. the airline's boss Michael O'Leary said introducing alcohol limits at airports would help tackle a rise in disorder on flights.On Thursday, Ryanair said alongside the introduction of the £500, it will continue to pursue disruptive passengers for civil damages.

Car Deal of the Day: Hot and spicy Alfa Romeo Junior Veloce for just £290 a month
Spicy Veloce model with 276bhp Head-turning styling; big boot Only £289.48 a month Alfa Romeo's first electric car is pretty much all we had hoped for. Stunning styling? Yes. A comfortable interior? Absolutely. And a thrilling driving experience. You bet. You can also throw value for money into the mix judging by this deal from Lease4Less. Through the Auto Express Find a Car service, the broker is offering the Alfa Romeo Junior for just £289.48 a month. An initial payment of £4,073.76 is needed to get the ball rolling, and this two-year deal has a cap of 5,000 miles per annum. Increasing this to 8,000 miles only costs an extra £19.47 a month, though. Advertisement - Article continues below That may sound a little steep but this is the 'hot' Junior after all. Anyone who knows their Alfas will know that the Veloce badge denotes the spicy version, and that's especially the case here. While other versions of the Junior make do with a hybrid or a 134bhp electric powertrain, here you get the full-fat 276bhp EV set-up. This means a rapid 5.9-second dash from 0-62mph, while a mechanical limited-slip differential makes sure all that power is deployed in the best manner possible. The Junior may share a lot of its components with some Peugeots and Jeeps, but you really wouldn't know it on the outside. The Junior has a look all of its own – in other words, it's typically like many other Alfa Romeos, and is distinctive. The interior is a nice place to be, thanks to an interestingly designed dashboard, an easy-to-use infotainment system, and a big boot. Meanwhile, Alfa Romeo says you can get 208 miles from the 54kWh battery, and 100kW DC charging means topping up at the roadside shouldn't take too long.

Garden owners snap up ‘lush, exotic' Mediterranean patio palms slashed by 50% to £20
GARDEN owners are sharing their praise for a pair of patio palms that have been reduced by 50%. Online gardening giants Gardening Express have discounted a pair of Canary Island Phoenix Date Palms from £39.99 to just £19.99, working out at around £10 per palm tree. 3 Phoenix Canary Island Date Palms, £39.99 £19.99 These tropical palms can make you feel as though you're abroad, even if you missed out on a holiday this summer, and they're perfect for adding a touch of Mediterranean charm to patios and gardens. Right now is the perfect time to plant, as the Canary Island Date Palms thrive best when planted during warmer months. Once established, these palms are extremely low-maintenance whilst providing year-round greenery and are also drought-tolerant, requiring minimal watering, making them ideal if you like admiring the garden, not tending to it. Although palms are notoriously associated with warmer climates, they are also extremely winter-hardy and can withstand temperatures as low as -6 degrees Celsius, so you can rest assured they can endure the unpredictable nature of UK weather. 3 Positive online reviews have poured in from Gardening Express customers who have snapped up this deal and have been praising the quality of the palms. Gardeners who have already snapped up this deal have been singing the praises of the Phoenix Date Palms, and it's no wonder the palms have amassed nearly all five-star reviews. One happy customer said: 'Absolutely delighted with this pair of Phoenix Date Palms! "Arrived, expertly packed, within the time stated, and both are strong and healthy with great roots.' 'I bought two palms for my wife to place in our new back garden, and she is over the moon.' Another customer shared: 'I was prepared to be underwhelmed buying online, but WOW! They look so gorgeous on my patio that I have just ordered another two!' 3 Great for all things gardening, Gardening Express has a huge selection of deals, including potted plants to bulbs, helping shoppers spruce up outdoor spaces in time for summer. There is also currently a deal on this pair of Flamingo topiary trees - which have also been slashed by 50% to just £39.99.
