Hello!
Why does duty-free belong to Things in both an airport and a plane? Is there any mistake?
Hello proshkinadezhda,
Duty-free shopping is often available in both airports and on international flights, or at least it was last time I flew. This is why it belongs in that group.
All the best,

t thought that something you buy at the airport can be duty-free. (think so)
Yes, I have travelled by plane many times. The longest flight was from Tehran to Kualalampur which lasted for seven hours. I had business seat so I didn't become tired.
I'm afraid I have no travelled by air yet. I have only gone to airport to see someone off or to welcome other one.
I've traveled by plane many times. However, they are domestic flights, so the longest flight that I've ever taken is only 2 hours long.
Yes I did travel by air. My longest flight was from Istanbul to Nairobi in 2019. Before boarding on the plane I had expended some times in the duty free as I came earlier in the airport that day. It took us almost 7 long hours to reach our destination, fortunately the journey was pleasant as the hostesses were extremely kind and both meals were tasty.
I hate traveling by plane.Come over the airplane wait for check in and everywhere has queve then wait for gate and due to my height i can't fit in the plane seat.
Yes, you are right!
But I really enjoy travelling by plane!
i have never go to foreign country by air.
Well I love flying to travel long distances. It's fast and pretty cheap. For another transport service - a ship for example, or the train - is much more expensive.
A couple of years ago, I went to the United States of America, specifically, to Green Bay, Wisconsin. First of all, I had to get a plane from Arequipa to Lima, then to Houston, and finally, to my destiny. All of that, take me approximately 12 hours, considering the fact I waited for the departure of my flights at the airport of Lima and Houston. But, otherwise, it was a great experience seeing for the first time new places.
That's the reason because I choose a flight to one of the bigger cities. You can fly direct and enjoy a shorter traveling time. After a one or two-day city sightseeing I rent a car and start a roadtrip to the destinations on my bucketlist.
I have travelled by plane many times, but I always remember one special trip, from Shanghai to Santiago of Chile, were roughly 28 hours of fly due to transfer, first leg was Shanghai to San Francisco,USA, second leg to Miami and finally the third leg to Santiago, it was very very tiring, because one thing was the fly and the another was the change of hours zone, Chile have a difference of 12 hours with China.
Yes. I have been to Taiwan by plane.
This was my first time to travel abroad so I was nervous even at the check-in desk and the gate at the airport.
However, I could enjoy the meal of the plane and waching some animes on a small TV.
The trip itself was awesome but I wish I'd have brought a carry back as I had a big hand bag, which was uncomfortable.
I traveled too many times by plane, but the longest trip was from Panama to Rio de Janeiro. It took about 8 hours through Colombia and Amazonas.
I traveled by plane many times, but one is special for me because it was to Rio de Janeiro and that is my favourite travel in all my life.

I did not travel by plane ever,
I wish I could travel by plane one day.
Yes, I have traveled two times, Sudan and Kuwait. It was amazing journey due to it was the first time to travel by plane and the longest one is Kuwait because it took more than three hours but Sudan took 2 hours only.
I forgot to tell you that the two travels were business travel.
I wish to travel again, but this time to Europe or USA to explore the world.
Please I appreciate your feedback about my writing.
I like traveling by plane very much, above all if it is a business journey. To flight is so comfortable, rapid and secure, moreover you can listen to music, watch a film, sleep or work during the flight. The only negative aspect is that you are off-line thus disconnected from the rest of world....but maybe it isn't a disadvantage at the end....
The longest flight I have taken was the one to Sri Lanka. It took in general 8 hours, but I could sleep on the plane and the meal was tasty.

I had traveled a lots of time by plane but one of the my travels was unforgettable for me when I started to fly from the Katowice to Warsaw at 6:00 am then Warsaw to Munich and then Munich to Istanbul and finally Istanbul to Ankara at 07:30 pm on account of the fact that I had to being participated to a symposium to speak about my academic research one day later of my work travel & there weren't any other opportunity to reach symposium just in time
I have been travelling by Air for many years but I have never taken longer flights than 1,5 hours.
I have traveled by air for few times, most of the flights were domestic. The longest one I have taken was from Vietnam to the US, It took almost a day, that is also the first long trip that I took without my family. I was nervous because my English was not very well at that time but It was a great experience that I will never forget.
I haven't travelled by plane since the day I was born. But I have had a dream about it. In the dream, I saw myself is in the airport with my girl friend. Then, I realized that I had left my passport in the taxi which I had booked to go to the airport. So, I talked to my gf and then she kicked me and left. This is such a bad dream. =((
sorry for your dream but the life is much more sad than this so i think i=this dream is heaven kossssssssss

Why duty free in both airplane and plane
Hello Hala alawaj,
It's because you can buy duty-free products both in the airport and on the plane.
All the best,

The duties free in the airport are in the form of shops while in the airplane they are a magazine. You can choose from there and buy with the help of the air attendant.
