I am not entirely proud of this post but I did have a question about airline 'no fly' lists.
Last year my boyfriend got a bit drunk on an economy virgin flight and ended up opening his own bottle of JD to drink... the flight attendant noticed and we had a bit of an argument with him because he was very rude and we didn't actually realise it was illegal! He came over and provoked a further 4 arguments throughout the flight about it and it seems he didn't like our attitude so called the police to meet us at Stansted. The thing was that yes we were rude to that cabin crew guy but we were not disruptive, the man next to us slept the whole journey while we just watched films and didn't leave our seats except to use the toilet!
Anyway, the police took us off (highly embarrassing) and let us go 5 minutes later saying we were clearly not drunk and disorderly so just to go home - but then they added we might find ourselves banned from VA and maybe to expect a letter through the door.
I wanted to book our holiday this year (we wont be drinking!!) but I am really nervous about his comment. It will not be with VA, probably BA but will we now be barred from flights on all airlines?! We moved house a week after the flight so I will never even know if we got 'the letter'. Can anyone help with this??
