OK, fine, ban drinking/alcohol at airports. Or if you’re intoxicated on a flight you get banned from flying with that airline again. There are so many options here.

Can just drink in your car, people would do it. I'd probably do it. Why? Because drinking makes the flight go fast and it's fun, especially if you're flying to go on vacation.

I don't drink a lot, but like going to a baseball game - drinking and flying is fun. Goes well together.

Why don’t we just ban drinking altogether then? And while we’re at it, if you’re irritated about something perhaps just keep it to yourself. Society doesn’t have time for discontent or deviation from the norm.

Good lord.

There is a massive gulf between "deny the drunk unruly passenger boarding" and "BAN BOOZE".

I realize that but I was following that author’s other posts and they just seem into restricting the rights of everyone to prevent disorderly conduct. So where does it stop??

It was a “throwaway” so I suppose I shouldn’t expect actual discourse.
