I should have said 'for the first offence' For the second offence, put a harness on them and dangle behind for the rest of the flight.

You're still too kind, I say dangle them by handcuffs for a FIRST offence and then inform them that this will be the only way they'll ever fly again. I do believe that this should prevent the situation from ever occurring.

There is always this (as seen on slashdot this morning):

"The Washington Times is reporting that the DHS wants to replace your boarding pass with a GPS-enabled shock bracelet. Plans for the device include subduing passengers remotely as well as onboard interrogation. There's even a promotional video." Perhaps Paul Ruwaldt (the official named in this story) has been watching "The Coneheads" a bit too much, or not actually flying enough. Expressing interest is not quite the same as ordering mass quantities, but it's scary enough.

As long as the shocking isn't done by GPS or by the time they've sorted out the co-ordinates they'd be shocking the guy three rows back from where they intended.
