Corrupt contracting practices
No one is forcing you to buy a $28 beer. Just say NO.
Beer in plastic containers?
Something about that just doesn’t sound right.
If you don’t like the price, don’t buy it.
Does the concessionaire pay a premium for the location? If so then some upcharge is inevitable.
No.more than 10% above street prices? Does that apply to prices of. Concessions at stadiums as well? There are some eye popping prices at ball parks.

” He also alleged that the restaurant was charging a “10% recovery fee.”
Was that for the bathroom?

“which showed beer prices ranging from $13.05 to $27.85 per glass at the LaGuardia restaurant. He also alleged that the restaurant was charging a “10% recovery fee.”
OK, $25+ a beer they might want to ‘recover’ some of it, but who is going to want to go collect it? The Naughty Nurse? Is 10% going to be enough?
The Port Authority makes a comment about a $28 beer but no comment on charging drivers $16 to cross a bridge or through a tunnel, much less a comment about charging a tractor-trailer driver $110 to drive across a bridge or through a tunnel.
That’s not much worse than the $6.16 I paid for a bottle of water at the MGM National Harbor casino yesterday afternoon...
Nobody MAKES you drink beer at an airport. I believe in the free market. In fact, drunk airplane passengers are the cause of most in-air disturbances. They’re doing everyone a favor keeping the prices that high.
Totally corrupt. And it’s a racket. In early 2019 I flew out of La Guardia on a business trip. Go into the bar. Ask the bartender for a Screwdriver. He says, “you gotta order it on the iPad and swipe your credit card”. I was like “seriously dude, you can’t just pour me a drink”? Nope. So I ordered it. $19 and change. For 1 shot of vodka and orange juice.
Long story short, flight delayed, went to 3 different bars in the terminal, all had the same stupid iPad ordering thing, and all had the same prices. Even the sushi bar they had in the airport.
I remember traveling after WTC / 9-11. The confiscated my lighter at screening but then sold me a book of matches for $2.
You can’t fix stupid.
Last year. Not the current bout of inflation.
Almost as expensive as Alaska...
$28 beer. Government setting the price is worse, much worse.
Just don’t buy it.
