A group of British holidaymakers drank the entire stock of booze for a four-hour flight to Turkey in the space of just 25 minutes, an airline boss has revealed.

SunExpress’s German-American boss Max Kownatzki told trade publication TTG that one special flight operated by the Turkish airline for a group of Brits on a golfing break was drunk dry in the space of 25-minutes.

He said Brit travellers are “more high-spend, more hedonistic.”

    Honest question: do you avoid alcohol if you’ll be a passenger in a car? To me, that would seem similar to the plane situation you’re describing, but I’m sure you’ll agree the majority of people wouldn’t do that.

      In general I hardly drink alcohol at all, I mostly find it annoying, I hate being dizzy and I can’t sleep well when I am too warm, alcohol makes me both dizzy and warm, so for the most part I just don’t drink.

      I have an extensive collection of rum, vodka and other spirits and alcoholic drinks at home, and if I don’t have work in the morning or itnis too late in the evening I will happily make a drink or two, but for the most part I just don’t do it.
