International Alcohol
Testing
When flying in and out of the International destinations
please be aware that you could be alcohol tested at arrival
or departure from your international destination. If
suspected by any airport authority that you are under the
influence, you could be detained until that test is
performed, and possibly even jailed.
- Use extreme caution when
consuming alcohol on an overnight on your international
layover.
- Security screeners are not
only trained but are REQUIRED to report any suspicious
behavior.
- You can be prosecuted for
violating the law. Period!
- Convictions can result in
heavy fines and/or prison time.
- Failure to submit to a
breathalyzer test will result in your immediate arrest.
- THINK before you drink!
Company Policy
US Airways prohibits any
employee from reporting for duty or remaining on duty while
having a breath alcohol concentration of 0.02 or higher.
The level that you must register is .02 or below, same as our
corporate policy, but, remember that both the actions and
procedures that you are subjected too may well differ from
country to country.
