Hello, I'd like to make an index of FT duty free resources and news, and hope that you can help.
On an overall level, this topic is being discussed by FTers including its member-electred representatives at Talkboard.
Any discussion of drinks and similar purchases, duty free, is already in DiningBuzz, in this thread.
Is this a topic worth keeping updated?
I'm not sure, but if you are interested or have something to share from a recent duty free experience, please add your comments!
Some ideas:
