Shops & Leisure at East Midlands Airport


Whilst you are waiting for your flight from East Midlands Airport, you may choose to spend the free time browsing around the airport shops - but what exactly does the airport have to offer? The answer is just about everything. The shops are spaced out so that there are some to browse before and after your security checks; the main shop before you reach security is the Aviation Gift Centre which sells everything aeronautical, from books and DVDs to toys and gifts.

Shopping in the Main Centre

Once past the security, however, there is plenty more to do. Accessorize by Monsoon is the perfect place to purchase those super-stylish sunglasses and jewellery, as well as anything you might have forgotten to pack for the poolside. Through the hall is also Judi Judi World for gadgets, gifts, and watches, Style clothing shop that stocks top brand names, and a Boots Chemist for any last-minute medication.

Other places to see at East Midlands Airport

Also on offer for the passengers is the electrical goods store Dixons for cameras and portable DVD players, and a WHSmith for newspapers and magazines with a separate book section to help pass away the time. Once all the shopping is finished, you might fancy some refreshments and snacks.
