Drunk passenger misses flight, goes on rampage at Dublin Airport

An allegedly drunk passenger has gone on the rampage at Dublin Airport after he missed his flight. Video posted on social media showed the topless man throwing tables and chairs around the departure gate at Terminal 1 at the Irish airport. A Garda (police) spokesperson confirmed a man in his 20s had been charged “in connection with incidents of criminal damage”. The airport told the Irish Mirror the passenger had arrived at the airport “intoxicated” on Monday morning and had missed his flight. “(He) proceeded to cause significant damage to our airport. We hope the justice system deals with him appropriately and also that we never see him at Dublin Airport again." Irish carrier Ryanair has repeatedly called for airports to clamp down on passengers from drinking too much before their flights, saying it would help create a “safer travel experience for passengers and crews”. It has not been revealed whether this particular passenger had alcohol at the airport. The low-cost Irish carrier recently started legal proceedings against an alleged “disruptive” passenger who caused a flight to divert.<br/>
