Jet2 reportedly banned six intoxicated passengers from flying on its planes following their aggressive treatment toward the airline’s staff on a flight from Newcastle to Tenerife Saturday. According to BBC News, “The firm has banned three people for a year and is refusing to fly another three home from the holiday island.” A Jet2 spokeswoman said the group drank alcohol they purchased prior to boarding, otherwise known as “illicit alcohol.”
