SunExpress’s German-American boss Max Kownatzki told trade publication TTG that one special flight operated by the Turkish airline for a group of Brits on a golfing break was drunk dry in the space of 25-minutes.
He said Brit travellers are “more high-spend, more hedonistic.”
“We sold out of beer and wine 25 minutes after departure; we haven’t done that in any other market,” he said.
He said every drop of beer and wine on board the plane, which departed a UK airport, was gone within half an hour.
He didn’t say how many passengers were on the flight nor did he specify exactly how much alcohol they consumed.
