Air travel has increasingly tested passengers’ patience, not just due to delays or limited space. For many travellers, frustration begins with simple purchases like buying a bottle of water or a small snack during the journey.
What should be an easy purchase often feels unnecessarily expensive. This growing concern has gained attention after Puneet Superstar’s viral complaint, which has sparked discussions across social media platforms.
In the widely shared video, Puneet Superstar questioned why food and beverages on flights are priced so high. He also raised concerns about how MRP works in such situations, highlighting a common issue faced by travellers.
While his reaction may appear dramatic to some, the concern is not new. Many reports and consumer discussions in India have pointed out the high pricing of packaged items at airports and onboard flights.
A 2024 LocalCircles survey, reported by The Economic Times, found that several Indian passengers noticed higher MRPs or overpriced items during air travel. This suggests that the issue is widespread and ongoing.
The main concern is not about premium pricing for freshly prepared meals. Airlines are free to decide pricing for their services. The issue arises when basic packaged items appear overpriced compared to regular retail rates.
Puneet’s video reflects a larger frustration among consumers. While convenience may come at a higher cost, it should not feel unfair. Many believe that pricing should remain reasonable and transparent for everyday items.
