It’s ridiculous. Was £2.30 when introduced (so should be £2.58 today using CPI inflation).

On launch as well as boasting everything was under £5, these were the other price comparisons they wanted to draw:

  • An Easyjet sandwich is £4.50, whereas British Airways’ Marks & Spencer sandwiches cost £3 for nine month aged farmhouse cheddar cheese ploughman’s. A packet of crisps on Ryanair costs £2.16 whereas a packed of hand-cooked crisps on British Airways will cost £1. A cup of tea on Norwegian costs £2.50, and on British Airways will cost £2.30.
