Carriers evaluate everything all the time. It is not simply the cost of carrying the duty free, but the utility cost of not carrying something else.

It also seems that the day has passed for this stuff if the typical customer is headed to a place where alcohol, tobacco and luxury goods are readily available and pricing is consistent.
