It's part of pilot training not to use alcohol. And part of that argument is that the effects of alcohol are exaggerated with the higher cabin altitude.
So pilot are forewarned - but passengers are not.
Until passengers are alerted to this, we shouldn't be too critical when they loose control.
No one should expect that the amount of alcohol that they can handle at ground level will be the same as when flying.
