Part two of my around the world in 14 days biz trip is to above cities. Will not have time to hit any LCDH, so, any information on price/selection on above airport duty free shops would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I have purchased at the duty free in Amsterdam. Prices were on the high side but selection and quality was fine.


Don't squat with your spurs on.

London Heathrow has a great selection of smokes. However, the prices are very high.

I hear Spain duty free is very cheap. Also, if you're in that hood, check out J&R Duty Free at Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv, Israel. Great selection and good prices.

CDG (Paris) has a very nice duty free store and they are legitimate cigars. Prices are OK.

Prices and selection are also okay in Brussels. Prices in Milan are higher than you would pay in Paris or Brussels, if I remember correctly, so I would cross that and London off the list.

Another option, if you have a regular European source that you already order from, is to get them to send the cigars to one of the hotels for you. Depending on where you buy online, the prices will be much better than any of the duty-free stores you mention.

Well, I think Frankfurt has the best prices in the airport, but I guess you are not going through there. Good luck.

BTW, same prices in Budapest. You can also order other cigars in advance if another of the aiports in their chain doesn't have what you want.
