I sent this message to a forum on ferries. Guess: what does the rip off 8 pound sandwich in the message mean? One that weighs 8 lbs or does it cost 8 pounds sterling? The unnamed airline is Ryanair.
"I just read on an airline user's forum, that a certain Irish low-cost airline charges 8 pounds for a 'club sandwich'. A tiny tin (150 cm3) of coke will set you back at least a pound. Although 5.25 pounds for a piece of cheese cake and coffee on a DFDS-ship to Norway is a bit steep to us, it is normal Norwegian pricing. I have to say that the portion of cheesecake was generous and they were not stingy with the coffee either. But I would never buy a rip off 8 pound sandwich and a rip off 150 cm3 tin of coke from a so-called low cost airline. http://www.airlinequality.com/Forum/ryan.htm On the other Irish airline, Aer Lingus, you have to pay for your refreshments on board as well, but their prices are reasonable, I buy their products on board and I like that airline anyway. In about 2 weeks I will board one of their planes again."
