More than 20 UK airports will carry the relaunched 2026 'One Too Many' campaign, using terminal, digital and social media messaging to deter disruptive passenger behaviour during the summer travel season.
Passengers who disrupt flights can face up to two years in prison, fines of up to £80,000 for a mid-air diversion and £5,000 for delaying departure, with possible lifetime bans or denied boarding.
The campaign is entering its eighth year and is being led jointly by the UK Travel Retail Forum, AirportsUK, Airlines UK and Iata.
Heathrow, Gatwick, Glasgow, Liverpool, Manchester, Luton, London City and Birmingham are among the airports involved as the industry and government push for safer travel amid heavy summer passenger volumes.
