A 26-year old Ryanair team member is to be prosecuted after being sacked for apparently downing alcohol on a flight.

Mr Thompson, 26, polished off a mini bottle of white wine and a mini Jack Daniels on the flight from Rzeszow, Poland, to London Stansted on Wednesday.

A traveler with who Thompson had actually apparently consented to share a beverage shot the entire event. The traveler later on stated that he was stunned when, after asking the team member for a beverage, he stated: ” Shush, do not inform anybody, however I will have one too.”

” Then he began necking a shot of bourbon. He likewise had a 187ml bottle of rosé. He sounded intoxicated and appeared like he had actually been consuming for longer than simply on the flight. I asked to talk to the Captain, and he raged.”

The video then revealed Mr Thompson trying to conceal the drinking from his coworkers.

Authorities Alerted

The Captain of the flight, run for Ryanair by subsidiary Lauda Europe, looked out to the event and called the authorities. Thompson was then detained and charged.
