Lion Air, an Indonesian airline established in 2000, faced a crisis when two pilots tested positive for methamphetamine just hours before a scheduled flight in February 2012, which was the third such incident in under a year. The airline responded by vowing more frequent and intense drug testing of pilots and stricter employment contracts while reassuring the public of its commitment to safety. However, negative media coverage and concerns from customers and regulators led to government imposing new laws and the EU banning Lion Air from European routes until major reforms were implemented.
