Bucharest Otopeni
I wouldnt say that anything either food or duty free shops was expensive - but several of the Duty Free concessions will now only take Euros refusing the local Romanian LEI which is not a lot of use to me when I have pockets of LEI and UK Pounds to go home with (so why the 'ell am I going to carry Euros on that trip or pay on my CC in Euros at rubbish exchange rate?!) - the manager's answer to that when I finally had enough and threw a wobbler 'well u can go and change some pounds or LEI to Euros over there...'
I now boycott those particular shops - how can they be allowed not to take their own national currency - there has to be an Euro exchange rate price hike somewhere?!
