Premium Price Positioning Service, brands, airport pulse, ambience, opportunity……
Shock .. % of passengers fully aware of rules taxfree
Confusion • 45% is aware of price advantage tax free • 45 • 30% thinks airport shopping is only allowed on trips outside the EU
Mixed signals • ’High end environment’ with Premium brands vs a price advantage on core categories • Liquids & gels, sealbags, confiscation • One bag rule • Alcohol monopol & export rules (local)
Tax free ? USP
In Sweden: more ’easy’ retail • Terminal 5 project • Open character • Ease of navigation(commercial & operational) • Single space • Brands in the lead • Comfortable environment • Airport Pulse
In Sweden: basic campaigns • Image & ambiance • Clarity of offer
In the industry? We share a confused customer, struggling to understand rules & regulations We share the need for a clearer communication about tax free (and other regulations) Operators differ in the selection of a brand mix, based on passenger profile or competence We all need to provide new reasons to shop, at every passenger journey.
