Scoot

Scoot positions its meal offerings at premium prices within the low-cost carrier segment, with pre-order meals ranging from AU$12.00 to AU$21.00 significantly higher than most competitors.

While they attempt to justify these prices through more complete offerings that include drinks and snacks, the actual savings versus onboard purchases are about 15%.

Compared to Air Asia, which offers a wide variety of meals between AU$ 3.00 and AU$ 8.18, Scoot's entry-level options are approximately three times more expensive for similar cuisine types.

This stark pricing differential raises questions about value, especially when Air Asia's most premium offering (Treasure Rice Bowl with Americano at AU$8.18) is still only 39% of the cost of Scoot's standard hot meals (AU$21.00) while providing comparable quality and portion size.
