Major airline charging 20% more for Costa coffees on flights compared to high street prices
Major airline charging 20% more for Costa coffees on flights compared to high street prices

Five ways to save money at costa
EASYJET is charging almost a third more for some Costa coffees on flights compared to high street prices.
The budget airline charges £3.95 for a small 12oz latte or cappuccino and £3.75 for a small Americano on flights, whereas the same drinks cost just £3.55 or £2.85 respectively in Hull’s Costa coffee branch.
For example, Costa’s outlet in Morden, south London sells a small latte and cappuccino for £3.70 and £3 for an Americano.
Consumer expert Martyn James said: “This latte tax is just another example of easyJet hitting their customers in the pocket.
“With the cost of an inflight cup of coffee going through the roof it is no surprise Brits are finding it more expensive to go on holiday.
“Flyers should tank up on caffeine before they board to avoid getting caught out paying through the nose for a brew onboard.”;
EasyJet said: “Our pricing is competitive and based on the popularity of Costa Coffee onboard our flights it is clear are we are offering the options our customers want.”
Mid-air drama as easyJet plane 'with 100s on board' turns back to UK airport
Boffins at Money Saving Expert recommend a number of hacks to help save money on easyJet flights.
Pay to bring a second larger bag on board to help minimise your baggage charges.
Boost your hand luggage allowance by using a carrier bag or better still wear your luggage.
Be ready to pounce when easyJet launches its seats to help buy tickets when the demand is lower so you can secure flights tickets for less.
Dodge expensive easyJet extras such as car hire, hotels, and travel insurance by checking prices independently.
And avoid sky-high food and drink prices charged by the budget behemoth by packing a mile-high picnic instead.
Even prices in the terminal after check in are normally cheaper.
For example, an easyJet meal deal (sandwich, soft drink, and snack) starts at £8.50.
Even at inflated airport prices, a Boots meal deal is around £5.
Checkers at the group also told punters not to assume easyJet is cheapest and instead advised them to always compare against alternatives.
