Balearic Islands ask EU for alcohol limit on flights

Local authorities in the Balearic Islands have asked for a limit to be put on drinking alcohol on planes and in airports as they try to crack down on anti-social behaviour. Pilar Carbonell, head of tourism across the islands, including Mallorca and Ibiza, has pleaded with Spain and the European Commission for the limit.

In a statement, Ms Carbonell said the limit in airports and on flights would "guarantee security... and tackle anti-social tourism". It was not clear whether it was just aimed at flights heading to the Balearic Islands, or the wider European Union.
