Airports as Shopping Destinations [Edit]

In the past, one was most likely to find duty free shops and magazine stores at airports.  However, due to longer lay-overs, delays and larger airports, luxuryt retails stores are the norm selling high-end watches, designer purses and custom made suits.

In Heathrow's terminal 5, set to open in March 2008, airport management company BAA has inked a deal with high-end department store Harrods to anchor the terminal's retail operations. The store will occupy two floors, stocking high end clothing lines and accessories alongside its signature teddy bears and carryalls. (msnbc.msn)

Great for those long layovers BUT problems in sending stuff home unless FedEx & or putting in luggage BUT great for locals. Charles DGaulle Airport could use this Service.
