- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if he will take steps to engage with the airline industry on tackling problems caused by alcohol consumption on airplanes.
- Answer
-
The Government supports the industry and its efforts to find deliverable solutions to this increasingly high profile issue. It is important to ensure that all air passengers have a safe and pleasant experience when flying.
The industry bodies have joined together to create the UK Aviation Industry Code of Practice on Disruptive Passengers, with the purpose of creating a common, consistent approach that co-ordinates and enhances existing efforts to prevent and minimise disruptive passenger behaviour.
The Government will continue to engage and meet with a broad range of operators in the aviation sector to explore any further actions to support the Code.
