Found this interesting and a clear warning to avoid buying food and drink on so called 'budget' airlines

i wouldn,t call them budget airlines seeing those prices  :(

as always take food items on yourselves, the less that buy then the prices should fall  ;) then maybe we would buy.

Interesting to see that the small 5cl bottles of spirits are now being sold in the UK duty free shops. Much cheaper than the prices on the planes too.

As much as I hate buying anything in Dalaman Airport, the price of a bottle of water is slightly better/about the same as buying it on some airlines.

I just catagorically refuse to pay 4.50 tl for a water that is 50 kurus in the mini markets, now I finish my water at the last security check keep the empty bottle and get a small bit of tap water to see me through until I board then I am normally asleep for the duration of the flight and then get a water when we have landed from believe it or not Marks and Spencer do a water for 80p.  :)
