A group of British holidaymakers drank the entire stock of booze for a four-hour flight to Turkey in the space of just 25 minutes, an airline boss has revealed.

SunExpress’s German-American boss Max Kownatzki told trade publication TTG that one special flight operated by the Turkish airline for a group of Brits on a golfing break was drunk dry in the space of 25-minutes.

He said Brit travellers are “more high-spend, more hedonistic.”

    Then I am happy to report that I am not i that category, I don’t worry that it will happen on my plane, but that doesn’t mean I am going to be reckless.

    I think it is a bigger issue that you can’t go a few hours without drinking alcohol.

      “can’t go without” is such a weird way to describe people who drink on planes

      like i get that the entire point of this is some weird moralistic high horse thing, but if you’re going on a plane to travel for leisure, the entire thing is already unnecessary

      “wow people physically can’t even go 2 years without a trip away what addicts”

        Moral has nothing to do with it, logic has, I don’t want to be stuck next to a drunk guy in case of an accident.
