Many years ago - in the early 1970's, to be more precise - I was an operations agent for TWA at Ben-Gurion Airport, Tel Aviv.
I was briefing a flight crew early one morning when I detected a strong smell of alcohol on a captain's breath. I consulted the station manager (the late, great, Louis Fogiel), who sent a TTY message to the Rome despatcher's office.
The boozy-breathed aviator was summarily suspended from duty and a check captain, due to take a later flight out, was hastily roused from his bed to take his place.
We never saw the offending pilot again in TLVKO.
