be carefull out there

"This is the 2nd Helsinki incident I know of (Not LH) It would seem their breathalizer gadget is extremely sensitive so be carefull out there."

I am sure what IcePack means is never drink if you intend to fly. It's never a question of will I miss a breathalyzer or not or are they sensitive. I am sure in Helsinki they are just as sensitive as at any other airport in Europe and US.

I recall that the previous such stupid incident was a UK cargo crew in Helsinki about a year ago. I hope such incidents are reported at every airport and that unannounced checks should be performed at all airports to all crew members in a similar way as in traffic to drivers.
