£1.20 for a cup of coffee and £2.80 or a hot dog!
That's almost $2.25 and more than $5.00 respectively!
That's highway airway robbery.

I agree it's "airway robbery" but I guess you haven't been to many conventions, trade shows, etc. These prices are quite typical, don't forget the show's operators usually "get something off the top" as their fee for letting the vendors operate.
