Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
I have not travelled by air much in the past couple years so not entirely sure when this increase happened. I purchased a turkey sandwich at the Austin airport and was a little shocked when the cashier rang up $17.69. No drink or chips, just a regular sandwich.
I could afford any food in the airport, I suppose, but DW and I always pack our own food for air travel. My personal favorite is peanut butter and bacon on whole wheat.
Unfortunately, my Diet Pepsi addiction means I'm gonna have to spring for at least one $3.50 drink at every airport we go through. Bummer!
