Airport mistake could see you banned from flying
You could also be hit with a hefty fine, and 'ruin' a holiday Holidays could be "ruined", warns a multi-airport campaign across the UK. Holidaymakers are being urged to "fly responsibly" or face hefty consequences, according to a Government-backed initiative. The One Too Many campaign is in place across more than 20 UK airports, and its posters remind passengers that consuming too much alcohol at the terminal could lead to severe consequences. One Too Many signs read: "One too many is all it takes to ruin a holiday, cause a delay, land YOU in jail, cancel a flight, [and/or] divert a plane". Those who disrupt flights could be refused boarding, receive a lifetime airline ban, or could even incur fines of up to £80,000 if their on-board behaviour means the plane has to be diverted. One Too Many campaign assets are on display at more than 20 UK airports, including London Gatwick, London Heathrow, Manchester, Newcastle International, Liverpool John Lennon, and Bristol. Karen Dee, Chief Executive of the Airport Operators Association, said: "UK airports are committed to providing a safe and enjoyable travel experience for all passengers. We urge travellers to enjoy their journeys responsibly and not ruin their holidays or the holidays of others." "Airports will continue to monitor and act against any disruptive behaviour to ensure everyone's safety." The One Too Many campaign launched in 2018, backed by the government, including nods of approval from the Department for Transport and the Home Office.
