If a passenger appears intoxicated during boarding, what action does SkyWest take?

When a passenger appears intoxicated during the boarding process, SkyWest has a responsibility to ensure the safety and comfort of all passengers and crew members. Therefore, denying travel to an intoxicated passenger is the appropriate action. This decision is based on regulatory requirements and company policies aimed at preventing potential incidents related to impaired behavior on an aircraft. By not allowing an intoxicated person to board, SkyWest prioritizes the well-being of everyone involved and reinforces safe travel practices. It also aligns with industry standards, which emphasize the importance of maintaining a secure environment during air travel. This proactive approach helps mitigate risks associated with alcohol consumption before and during flights.
