No-frills or no frills is the term used to describe any service or product for which the non-essential features (called frills) have been removed. An example is free drinks on airline journeys. Common products and services for which no-frills brands exist include airlines, supermarkets, holidays and automobiles. They operate on the principle that if you take away the frills, you get lower prices.

You just got the basic service that you required..no additional services provided.

You want to fly to Penang, and the transportation is all you got. additional meal service on the plane is optional for you.
