Travelers take to social media, share exorbitant prices at airports
They say airports are robbing them
A samosa costs Rs 80 inside the airport
In a growing wave of frustration, travelers are taking to social media to express their concerns over what they see as exorbitant prices at airports, accusing them of “robbing” passengers. One traveler shared their experience after paying ₹260 for an Uber ride to Bengaluru’s Kempegowda International Airport, only to be hit with unexpectedly high prices once inside.
AIRPORTS ARE ROBBING US! 🚨
Yesterday, I took an Uber to Bengaluru Airport and I realized I paid 260/- to the airport..
also at the airport, I had the most expensive (80/-) samosa of my life, and my friend had a masala dosa for 600/- 😭
Why is no one talking about how… pic.twitter.com/SFHC9mBurt

The tweet garnered significant attention, with one user responding, “₹600 for a masala dosa? Are they giving you five-star service with that?” This sarcastic reply echoes a common sentiment: the belief that airport food and services are often overpriced, with little justification in terms of quality.

Frequent flyers and occasional travelers alike have long been frustrated by the inflated prices of essentials, from food to transportation fees, at major airports across India. Many argue that travelers, already dealing with the costs of flights, should not have to suffer from such steep markups on basic items.
In another post, a user said that they paid Rs 193 for maggi noodles!
