Gate area in NAT terminal? Candy Airways VR is your sugar stop
Candy Airways VR sits airside in Alicante’s NAT terminal, so you only reach it after security and passport control. It’s a small walk-up shop focused on sweets and travel snacks, aimed at passengers killing 20–30 minutes before boarding. Expect standard airport pricing, a bit higher than downtown Alicante convenience stores, but still fine for grabbing last-minute treats before a Schengen or non‑Schengen flight.
The shop skews to packaged candy: think bags of gummies, chocolate bars, and gift-style boxes sized for carry-ons. You’ll usually see familiar European brands next to a few local Spanish sweets, good if you forgot to buy turrón outside the airport. Prices for single bars typically sit in the €2–€3 range, with multipacks going closer to €6–€8, which matches most NAT terminal kiosks.
Drinks sit in the same space, so you can pair your candy with a 0.5L bottle of water or soda before heading to gates in the B and C ranges. If you like structured snacking, grab smaller single packs instead of bulky boxes; they tuck easily into the seat‑back pocket on a 2–3 hour flight to London, Amsterdam, or Berlin. One tip: buy in one go here rather than at the gate vending machines, which have thinner choices and slightly higher per‑item prices.
