DUTY FREE

Major Duty Free Outlets
 
The imminence of departure for destinations both domestic and International is always an incredibly exciting prospect for most passengers. But perhaps one of the things that makes an airport experience so special is the availability of quality products at tax-free prices! The World Duty Free store at Exeter Airport awaits the checked-in passenger with designer clothing and sunglasses, perfumes, watches and gadgetry belonging to some of the most respected and internationally respected brand names.

The World Duty Free shop offers numerous rebates and savings on high-street prices on various products and items, from fragrances and skincare products to cigars and champagne!
 
Duty Free Limits
 
Shopping at the World Duty Free store is the ultimate retail therapy for all passengers, but as tempting as it is to go overboard on certain items such as perfume, one should know that there are certain limitations on the amount of duty-free items one can take out of the United Kingdom from Exeter International Airport. The limitations are as follows (for passengers travelling to a country outside the European Union):
 
Perfume (50ml) or Eau de Toilette (250ml).

Tobacco (250g): Two cartons of cigarettes (200), 50 cigars or 100 cigarillos.

Alcohol: Less than 22% alcohol (still wine): two litres. Over 22% alcohol (spirits): only one litre.
 
Hot Items
 
For travellers with delayed flights, connecting flights or with time to kill, the World Duty-Free shop at the Exeter International airport is the perfect way to make the time fly. Owing to the absence of import tax duties on the items available for sale, there is incredible bargain shopping to be done, whether it be for gifts for friends and family members or as a well-deserved treat for yourself. Indulge in designer label perfumes and fragrances, perhaps a pair of sunglasses in anticipation of your final destination and a book to read on the way there. Cigars, bottles of wine, champagne, liqueurs and local beer make great gifts, while there are also numerous souvenirs, snacks and electronics for sale at the Duty-Free.
 
Carry-on Luggage
 
In the interests of safety and security, certain restrictions have been applied to the items passengers are allowed to take on the plane in their carry-on luggage. Thankfully, few of these restrictions apply to the items available for purchase at the Exeter Airport’s World Duty Free store. Having said this, it would be advisable to steer clear of buying excessive amounts of liquid containers in your carry-on luggage as this will more than likely cause security concerns at the gate. Any duty free liquids should be kept unopened and should remain in the sealed bag provided upon purchase. Furthermore, any items (tools, gadgets, electronics) bought at the Duty-free that are sharp or contain corrosive chemical agents, might cause security troubles.
