"We fail to understand why passengers at airports are not limited to 2 alcoholic drinks," Ryanair, Europe's biggest airline, said in a statement.

Spain's marine rescue service on Thursday said that more than 550 migrants have reached its Canary Islands in boats over the past two days.

Ryanair is calling on European authorities to limit the sale of alcoholic beverages at airports across the continent, as the Irish airline continues legal action against a passenger who it says caused a costly flight diversion last year.
