    The list on their website is tiny compared to what they have actually in store. Gatwick doesnt tend to have the high end items but I would be surprised if Blue label or another mid range brand equiv isnt there.

    Airside Turkey on your inbound flight is unlikely to have a duty free. The type we have after immigration and customs etc is not true duty free and is a rarity.

    Quick question guys,

    We are going to tenerife in a few weeks (YAY). Im just wondering can we buy a bottle of wine in Duty free and put it in plastic bottles for the plane? As there prices are astronomical :(

    You are not allowed to consume alcohol that is not bought on the plane

    I was surprised EasyJet didn't have any duty free spirits or cigarettes on board our flight to Iceland in December, luckily we had bought ours at the airport.

    Not if you intend drinking it. You can only consume alcohol that is served by the cabin crew. There can be serious consequences if you're caught drinking your own.

    If the onboard prices are too expensive then don't drink alcohol. Take a couple of bottles of water on board with you instead. Alcohol and flying aren't a great mix anyway.
