There was a lot more to that story than a glass of wine .....

Dubai's quite grown up about accepting the foibles of the tourists and business visitors it loves to attract. As long as you don't upset someone who matters, don't frighten the horses or cross a red line, you'll be fine. Drinking isn't a red line as long as you do so in private or places designated for its consumption (which includes the lounges at the airport): just don't stagger too much when you leave
