Personally I would ban duty free on aircraft, there is no need to transport spirits etc in overhead lockers, it is another source of danger from flying bottles to flammable fluids in a crash, plus you are burning fuel to haul it all.
I cannot understand why a system couldn't be introduced where when you buy an article of duty free spirits or tobacco etc at your departing airport and you are presented with a voucher that is redeemable at your destination in the shop there. It would also get around those drinking them in flight.
