Giant suitcase arrives at Heathrow
18 Oct 2010
Heathrow airport unveiled a giant suitcase in the departures area of Terminal 5 earlier this month to showcase the 2010 Heathrow Travel Product Award winners.
The suitcase is nearly three metres tall and more than two metres wide and has the capacity to hold 83,000 UK passports, 10,000 bottles of sun cream and much more.
During October it will showcase the 12 winning products from this year's awards programme, such as the Harrods Paddington Bear, an Apple MacBook Pro and a pair of black Ray-Ban sunglasses.
Other winners include the Brain Training game on the Nintendo DS and the Canon 500D camera.
Brian Woodhead, retail concessions director at Heathrow, said the awards were launched to highlight the extensive range of brands and products on offer at the airport.
He added: 'It's great to see what our passengers really value when they travel - and the luxuries and essentials they just can't live without.
'We hope the awards will not only raise awareness of the offering at Heathrow - and the substantial savings that can be made - but also our commitment to making every journey better than the last one.'
