After the incident of November 22, N Chandrasekaran, Chairman of Tata Sons, released a statement mentioning that Air India could have handled the situation (of a drunk passenger relieving themselves on a female co-passenger) better. The updated guidelines come as a continuation of measures that the airline promised to take, in a statement by Campbell Wilson, CEO and Managing Director, Air India.
The airline’s updated alcohol policy is based on the premise of the difference between the consumption of liquor “for pleasure and becoming intoxicated as a result of consuming alcohol.” According to the policy, “Air India empowers its cabin crew to deny boarding, refuse service of liquor or remove any unconsumed alcohol where a guest is consuming their own and where there are reasonable grounds to believe that guests faculties are impaired by alcohol to an extent that will present a hazard to the aircraft, to persons on board (crew or guests) or to the guest themselves,” reports add.
