Yet another poster that seem to not comprehend the meaning of the term "rip off".

1st law of complaining - if it says rip off in the title then it's not. It has a 95%+ accuracy rate.

Flew Monarch last year to Ibiza on a Friday night, late deprture. They emailed us a week or so before the flight advising us that there would be a one drink per customer policy. Also reminding us that if you got tanked up at the airport Wetherspoons beforehand they'd not hesitate to leave you at BHX.

Perfectly reasonable I thought.

Flew back with Ryanair. After two attempts at trying to do the safety demo with no success, the Captain came on the PA and said until the safety demo was complete with everyones attention the aircraft wouldn't be going anywhere. Again perfectly reasonable.

More airlines should do this.

Thinking of paying the extra to fly BA? Think again!

Do you know on certain routes BA have a policy of ONE ALCOHOLIC DRINK PER PERSON PER FLIGHT!!!!

& There is no option to purchase any drinks on board!! You might as well save your money and fly budget, where you can at least drink when & what you like.

Staff confirmed this is a new policy on 'holiday' routes.

So BA is a a rip-off because they won't let you get drunk on a flight...

(My experience of BA is that they are no better than the other standard airlines, but usually are more expensive.)
