I think it's going to hurt the coffee and soft drink business in gate areas. I'm not going to buy my usual Starbucks before boarding. (I'm never there long enough to drink it at the gate; if I arrive early, I wait in an Admirals Club if the airport has one; most of those I use do.) As for the airlines, though - not enough added cost to notice.
