Ah yes, the old 'Let's ban something due to the behaviour of an idiotic few'

There's a few issues on this...

Airports will never go for it due to the exorbitant profit they make on selling alcoholic drinks

People have been actively been stopped boarding trains due to alcohol consumption the same can and should be done on flights.

I hardly every drink, but one of my pleasures is sitting with a cold beer, or a glass of wine before boarding a flight/connecting flight

As with so many things, this is about personal responsibility and accountability.

A blanket ban is not required.
