A man, who had reportedly missed his flight and was believed to be under the influence of alcohol, caused a significant disturbance at the airport, leading to his arrest.
According to the Daily Mail, the man, later identified as Lukas Kaunietis, was seen shirtless and wearing a face mask, pacing around Terminal 1 and hurling items around. The spectacle was captured on video and shared online, showing the man attempting to dislodge airport equipment and throwing furniture around. The incident, which occurred as many were traveling for St. Patrick's Day celebrations, resulted in considerable damage to the airport.

In response to the incident, Ryanair has announced a decade-long ban on the disruptive passenger and reiterated its call for a two-drink limit at airport bars. The airline has previously voiced concerns over the lack of restrictions on alcohol sales at airports, particularly during flight delays when passengers may consume excessive amounts of alcohol.

Ryanair's chief, Michael O'Leary, has been a vocal advocate for limiting the amount of alcohol served to passengers, arguing that it would lead to a safer travel experience for both passengers and crews. He first proposed the two-drink limit in August of last year, citing an increase in disorderly conduct on flights. O'Leary acknowledged a "spike" in violent behavior among passengers, particularly on flights to popular party destinations like Ibiza.
The airline has criticized European governments for their repeated failure to address the issue of disruptive passengers who threaten aircraft safety and force diversions. "It is time that European Union authorities take action to limit the sale of alcohol at airports," a Ryanair spokesperson stated. The spokesperson noted that while airlines like Ryanair already restrict and limit the sale of alcohol on board, especially in cases involving disruptive passengers, there are no such restrictions at airports.

This recent call for drink limits comes on the heels of Ryanair's announcement that it is beginning to take legal action to recover losses from disruptive passengers as part of a "major misconduct clampdown". The airline is committed to ensuring the safety and comfort of its passengers and crew, and believes that stricter alcohol regulations at airports are a crucial part of achieving this goal.

The incident at Dublin Airport serves as a stark reminder of the potential dangers of excessive alcohol consumption before flights. It underscores the need for stricter regulations on alcohol sales at airports, a cause that Ryanair continues to champion. As the airline takes legal action against disruptive passengers, it remains to be seen how European authorities will respond to these calls for change.
