Abstract

The article discusses the escalating conflict between Wetherspoons founder Sir Tim Martin and Ryanair CEO Michael O'Leary regarding the rise in in-flight violence attributed to intoxicated passengers. O'Leary has proposed a two-drink limit at airports to combat this issue, blaming airport pubs for contributing to the problem, while Martin defends Wetherspoons' practices and suggests that Ryanair should revise its own alcohol policies. The article highlights the broader context of increasing unruly behavior among passengers, particularly those traveling to party destinations, and notes specific incidents of air rage that have occurred recently.
