^100% there.
The rowdy ones should never get on a plane again.

Drinking your own alcohol is not per se illegal in the US. Legally, you can only drink alcohol that is served to you by a crew member, and you cannot be drunk. I know of at least one airline that says it's fine to bring a bottle on board, give it to a crew member, and ask that they serve it to you. And I know of a couple of airports in the US where concessionaires sell beer and wine that can be taken out of the premises (i.e., to your gate).

Drink your own on NZ flights is forbidden under the sale of liquor act.

Only ship's supplies served by a crew member can be imbibed

Failure to comply can involve the removal of the licence but I'm not sure whether it is just for that airplane or the whole fleet of that airline

Quick poll as to the extent of the problem: About how many times per year to you need to remove a passenger from your aircraft due to drunkenness?

How many times do passengers buy their bottles of water and duty free, nip in the loo, dump the water and refill with Vodka (or similar clear hooch) before walking on board.

Who's going to stop somebody drinking water?

Holding the duty free until the flight lands seems the only way to me.

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.


Oh the level of naivety.

They know very well how much they are drinking & how drunk they are getting that's exactly why they are drinking so much.
