    Anyone able to find what's on offer in Boston Logan airport?

    I've someone traveling back soon, and I'm trying to find out what whiskeys they have and for how much.

    I used this before for JFK to compare, this is not the same company that operate in Logan but will give you a general idea of pricing and stock. I found last time I went through pricing was mad for spirits, more than the Tesco price here for the likes of Jack Daniels and Jim Beam despite them originating in US and supposedly being duty free. Maybe the ultra expensive stuff is discounted.

    I've just flown back from the US no real value due to the current exchange rate unless you are after something you can't get here.

    I'll hit that idea on the head.

    There's probably better value to be found elsewhere.

    If they have check on baggage, you'd probably be better getting something from a liquor store and bubble wrapping it.

    A relative picked up a Sazerac Rye for me in Atlanta, it was about €15 cheaper than you'd pay here.

    It would work out cheaper to buy in a local store than in so called duty free in the US.A lot of "duty frees" outside of Europe charge "silly" prices too.But the Canaries are an out and out an exception-as in high prices.
