Passengers have praised an airline for its new rules surrounding alcohol, with many saying it's "about time." Ryanair have issued an update confirming new rules for some duty-free items on flights following rumours earlier this month that alcohol would be banned from its flights.
The budget airline has stated that it is not banning booze, but passengers will not be able to open any alcohol purchased in duty-free on board the plane. A spokesperson for the airline said: “We are not ‘banning’ or ‘confiscating’ duty-free alcohol at boarding gates.
"As per Ryanair’s T&Cs, passengers can carry duty-free alcohol onboard but must not consume it during the flight.” Many passengers are pleased about the new rule, especially those who have been affected by people drinking previously on planes reports The Liverpool Echo.
