Passenger hit with bottle of Jack Daniels on board Thai Airways flight from Sydney to Bangkok

[seabass69]

A post containing an inflammatory insult toward Australians has been removed.

No worries mate. We've heard 'em all before...probably true.

[hanno]

Now they will be banning alcohol on Thai Airways.

No, I don't think it will go that far.

May be it should. I don't see why people must have the right to get drunken everywhere and every time.

Right, and punish all the people that can handle/enjoy a drink without becoming abusive?

I am offended by the bad food on planes; let's ban that, too. And fat people hugging the armrests. And babies. All Aussies. Oh, and all holier-than-thou party-poopers

[krisb]

Two blokes were secretly swilling their duty free,

I wonder what makes people sip from their own bottles on a flight where all drinks are free anyway?

"Limits" on what gets served, the crew had probably stopped serving them?

Exactly what would have happened. Crew monitor how many drinks you consume, and don't like to say no, but then they will delay the next drink.

All duty free booze should be stowed away from passengers for this exact stories reason. Bloody idiots.

In the United States, we would then file a lawsuit against Jack Daniels for having such a strong bottle that it could be used as a weapon. And, we would win. Go figure....

Don't tar all Australian's with the one brush, if you read the headline it says they are from Sydney...

You may find that the crew stopped feeding them drinks so they decided to hit their own stash!

Love it.....we Australians have some great tourists travelling the globe.....those coming to Thailand and Bali especially......bloody <deleted>.....nothing unusual at all....can't understand what the fuss is all about!..............

You might see what all the fuss is about if you had been on the flight perhaps.

I have noticed over the last 40 years of flying that people generally drink a lot less and airlines appeared to be offering less alcohol. A good thing, in my opinion. I'm not a teetotaler but when you've got 300+ people crammed into a small tin can for 12 hours it only takes one moron to make life difficult for everyone else

Handcuff them both, and have three flight attendants take turns flogging them with a leather whip, with their pants around their ankles, in front of the entire plane. Move them from one cabin to the next, so all the passengers can enjoy, after the pilot gives an explanation. Much can be learned from this, by the drunkards. Such as civil behavior, and common decency. And it would be fun for the passengers, who might be bored.

Seeing bondaged naked male butts flogged is obviously a fantasy of yours. Each to his own, so I don't condemn you for it, but your solution is not a realistic answer.

Now that is an understatement, w anchor is more like it.

Good old Aussies typical behaviour from Aussies

[Clutch]

Probably best mates again already.

What's the bet that today they're sitting in girlie bar, arms around each other, telling each other how awesome they are, dressed to the nines in flip flops, sunnies positioned on top of head, Chang and Leo singlets (respectively) using their man-charm to wow the ladies. And swilling more jack Daniels of course!

[ratcatcher]

Don't understand what the fuss is all about. He got hit with a quality whisky bottle!

They were just warming up for their well deserved holiday in Amazing Thailand.

Yep Spidermike... You have it right!

Flogging people with a leather whip with their pants around their ankles in front of a plane load of passengers including women and children is definitely the way to teach people "civil behavior and common decency."

Where are you from, again? I want to make sure I never go there.

[kamahele]

I love the Australian people and they do like to imbibe when they can. A few just take it a little too far....

[rjcampbe]

Gosh that' s how they keep the birthrate up? Tying the condom around the appendage instead of wearing it ? Clever !!

Just like the girls in the gogo bars you see with their panties tied around their arms... (I've heard...)

They are legal because they are still "wearing" panties...

I admit, it was a very poor attempt at humor. Lighten up guys. It was a pretty humorous situation right? Clubheads clubbing each other?

Should be an automatic deportation and blacklist on arrival.

If a guy can't control himself on a plane surrounded by women and children, he is not going to be a great ambassador for the farang when let loose in never closing bars is he?

They blend in well in Patong, Pattaya or Nana.

[slipperylobster]

Aussies just don't handle liquor well...

It's absolute thick, selfish, d1ckheads like this who may get alcohol banned on all flights!!

More handcuffs on planes and much stricter punishments governing alcohol misuse whilst airborne?

[klauskunkel]

Perhaps time to ban alcohol on planes too.

No, just ban guys like that from flying any airline for 5 years. They can row a boat to Pattaya.
