The 'flight from hell' to Ibiza and the new rules aiming to stop bad behaviour

Is this the year everything changed for the traditional "lads and lasses" holiday?

During my recent flight to Ibiza the safety video had to be restarted because of the noise and rowdy behaviour of some passengers.

It didn't help that the journey had been delayed by an hour.

This meant a fair few travellers had been drinking duty free alcohol before finding their seats.

Lauren and Claire have been to Ibiza several times but say their latest flight was worse than usual

Regulars to Ibiza, Lauren Mulvihill and Claire Hunt, told Newsbeat their latest flight was the most disruptive they had ever experienced.

"It was the flight from hell," Lauren said.

The 27-year-old added: "We thought it was your typical Ibiza flight until we heard that money got stolen."

She explained that they weren't allowed to leave the aircraft "until the police came on board and got the money back".

"It was very rowdy," she said.

Aviation rules mean drinking your own alcohol on a plane is illegal but Lauren said she saw passengers pouring out booze.

She told us: "I've never seen that on a flight before... people drinking their own alcohol."

"It's not fun for the air hostesses because it shouldn't be their job to stop people [drinking].

"And it's quite scary because when you're up there in the air you don't feel in control," Claire added.

Friends Sam Dalton, Rob Howard, Jake Gable, James Pugh, George Anderson and Matthew Harvey say anyone on a plane to Ibiza should expect it to be "noisy".

"Everyone knows why they are coming here and it's to have a good time," said James.

"Ibiza starts on the plane.... actually on the cab journey to the airport," added Sam.

Before Rob added; "It's not illegal to have a drink.

"If you're coming to Ibiza you're here to have a good time. It's the party capital of Europe you got to expect a little bit of noise."

Officers from West Midlands police on patrol in Ibiza

Ryanair has become the first airline to clamp down on antisocial behaviour on its planes.

This summer the airline banned all passengers travelling from the UK to Ibiza from carrying their duty-free alcohol into the cabin area.

EasyJet which also frequently flies to Ayia Napa, Majorca and Ibiza, says it has no plans to introduce a similar ban but said it's staff had the powers to remove alcohol from travellers.

Millions of UK nationals travel to these Mediterranean islands each year, where they have often been branded as the most "out of control" visitors.

After complaints from residents and and businesses, Britons holidaying in Magaluf were banned from drinking in the street.

To help enforce that law the island also employed officers from West Midlands police to patrol the Spanish resort.

The thinking behind the scheme, which also took place in Ibiza, is that visitors are more likely to behave if they see familiar law enforcement.

These small changes are unlikely to spell the end of the "lads on tour" getaway but lots of you have told Newsbeat it might make you think twice about where to go partying next summer.
