Man Can’t Digest Paying Rs 500 For Rajma Chawal & Coke At Airport, Calls It ‘Daylight Robbery’
We have come across many instances in which people have complained about the high prices of food items at airports. In one such recent incident, a person informed on X that he had to pay Rs. 500 for Rajma Chawl and a coke and he went on to call it daylight robbery.
Though the person didn’t reveal the name of the airport or where he was heading to but his tweet garnered a lot of attention and people reacted in different ways. The name of the online user is Dr. Sanjay Arora, he posted a photo of a plate of Rajma Chawal along with coke and captioned it as, “I’ve never understood why we get fleeced at the airports. I got his simple dish of Rajma Chawal with a Coke for 500/- bucks. Isn’t that daylight robbery? Just because someone’s traveling by air doesn’t mean they have to be looted!”

Soon people started reacting, while there were some who narrated their own experiences, few advocated the practice of packing home-made food and several others trolled Sanjay Arora.

Last week in Kolkata airport, I had to pay Rs. 300/- for one small cup of tea @The_TeaJunction

So true. Writing this from Bhubaneswar Airport where I just paid Rs.180 for a cup of tea and Rs.100 for a samosa!

Airport is a Rich man's transit point , like a 5 star hotel.

I always pack homemade food for flights so I don't have to come on X and cry about how expensive airport food is.

It costs a lot to setup airport
And it costs a lot to rent a place in airport and it costs a lot to employ people at airport as it is very secure place & hence it costs a lot to serve you food there
Just like it costs a lot to serve coffee in a 5 star than in a road side bandi— Swathi Bellam (@BellamSwathi) December 31, 2023
There is this wild concept known as location premium.
People become capitalist while earning and socialist while spending.

How much are you paying to travel by air? 10000 to 20000 bucks? Why? Because your time is money. Airports are taking part of that money you earn. Why not travel by bullock cart? You want cake and eat it too?

Sir PhD original hai?? Agar hai toh aise sawaal nahi poochte.

Airports are now akin to hotels. Maybe packing our own food ahead of time is a good solution.

Unless there are unavoidable circumstances, avoid eating at the airport.

Bhai, Coke peeke khud ko aise hi barbaad kar rahe ho, kisi or ne bhi kiya to kya bura kiya?
