Ryanair has announced passengers who have to be taken off their aircrafts because of disruptive behaviour are to be fined £500.
The Irish airline said said it hopes the fine will "act as a deterrent" to eliminate unacceptable behaviour onboard planes.
"It is unacceptable that passengers are made suffer unnecessary disruption because of one unruly passenger's behaviour," the airline said in a statement.
Ryanair has previously pursued legal action against disruptive passengers.
The statement added: "To help ensure that our passengers and crew travel in a comfortable and stress-free environment, without unnecessary disruption caused by a tiny number of unruly passengers, we have introduced a £500 fine, which will be issued to any passengers offloaded from aircraft as a result of their misconduct."
Last year. the airline's boss Michael O'Leary said introducing alcohol limits at airports would help tackle a rise in disorder on flights.
On Thursday, Ryanair said alongside the introduction of the £500, it will continue to pursue disruptive passengers for civil damages.
