Aeroflot reverses an in-flight alcohol ban
Aeroflot, is resuming alcohol sales on some flights where they had been restricted, reversing a ban it introduced 9 years ago to combat in-flight drunken incidents. Aeroflot said it would put alcoholic beverages back on the menu in economy-class cabins in such flights beginning Friday, TASS reported Thursday. In February 2010, the airline banned alcohol in economy cabins to and from Havana, Moscow, Bangkok, and Shanghai. At the time, Aeroflot said it chose those routes because they had the worst behavior related to alcohol. Other cabins were not affected by the ban. Aeroflot said that in the months after the ban was imposed it noticed fewer "cases of passenger misconduct on board attributed to alcohol intake." The airline has a history of alcohol-related incidents involving both passengers and pilots. <br/>
