    Apparently now available at SEATAC. Anyone else seen this? Where else?

    Nothing all that special available here, but it's nice to see.

    I remember when we used to cross into Canada (via buffalo NY) just to buy beer at the duty free on the way back through. Back then (20 years ago) beer (and liquor)was about half price there. Now it is damn near as expensive at the duty free as it is anywhere else. Selection was not too good then either. But when I was old enough to buy beer in Canada yet still underage in the states it would have been a good deal at any price and selection!

    Is it any cheaper to make it possibly worth it? I've never bought any duty free booze because to always been basically the same price I can get it at home.

    I always prefer my beers free of duty.
