Zhuhai Airport was exposed to high-priced catering from the media. Some passengers said that the bowl of Lanzhou Lamian Noodles and a cup of drink and a pile of cucumber 71 yuan at Zhuhai Airport were amazing.

Generally, the price of food sold at airports and stations is several times higher than that outside. A bowl of ordinary noodles should reach about 81 yuan, while the price of drinks with a dozen yuan outside is twice as high here. Such prices are often complained by consumers. In order not to waste money, many adults will prepare food and drinks in advance and try to avoid shopping at airports or stations.

The reason why the airport is expensive

First of all, the airport has a high investment, and the operating company is designated. Under the pressure of operating expenses and investment recovery, airport shops have become the main body of cash flow recovery. This will inevitably make the rent of the same location 2-3 times more expensive than that outside the airport, or even more. These costs will inevitably push up the price of food and beverage.

Secondly, the airport is crowded with people, but most airports are located in the suburbs, and there is no business circle around them, so they are in a relatively closed environment. The number of airport merchants is relatively small, and consumers often have no choice in the environment of insufficient market competition. The reality of "no other branch" limits consumers' choice.
