He claimed that cabin crew gave the man a whole row to himself – letting him kick and pull Jeff’s seat.

Posting on Twitter, Jeff said: “How drunk do you have to be to be unfit to fly?

“A man, loud and abusive in the terminal at Faro, was permitted on board despite being paralytic.

“EasyJet staff were aware. He kicked and pulled the seats in front and made farmyard noises from every orifice all flight. Unpleasant.”

An EasyJet customer services worker asked Jeff to send him a message – but to no avail.

Jeff, 69, said: “Too late guys. He was disruptive in terminal as everyone could tell.

“At final check before boarding, I was told they were calling a supervisor.

“Crew moved him so he could have a row to himself – just happened to be behind me.

“He was on the phone during take off and on landing. His language was loud and abusive.

“It was uncomfortable to be sitting knowing drunken you was right behind.

“I spoke to the on board crew and they said it was a ground staff decision to allow him on.

“No wonder you get so many in flight incidents with drunks if no action taken.”

EasyJet said: “Like all other airlines, we have strict guidelines about the consumption of alcohol onboard.

“Any passenger who appears to be under the influence of alcohol will be refused alcohol onboard.”

A spokesperson added: “Prior to departure we communicate our alcohol policy to customers.

“We ask that should they wish to consume alcohol purchased onboard, that they do so responsibly,  considering others onboard.
