3. Cosmetics

You may know that duty-free shops are usually stocked with cosmetics. Despite this fact, experts warn that the deals aren’t the best; instead, you may want to look after those items online.

Plus, savings in this field are rare, at best. Not to mention the fact that there are fewer options in the cosmetics section of your airport duty-free. Our advice would be to save the beauty splurging for your favorite cosmetic shop, where you’re more likely to find great deals, as well as find an expert on hand to help you. Isn’t that worth the wait?

4. Snacks

Ever since most airlines stopped providing free food, snacking mid-air isn’t as affordable as it once was. The overpriced foods on the online menu are enough to shock most travelers and convince them to stock up pre-flight. If you need more convincing, take a look at the prices, and you’ll notice that you’re about to pay two or three times more than you would at the supermarket.

The markup on duty-free snacks just isn’t worth it. While airport rules may be different, most allow passengers to bring their own food, so save your money for your trip and pack your own meal ahead of time.
