"However, it is in the retail side of the business that BAA has really scored by unashamedly aiming airport stores at the upper end of the market and creating a competitive environment within airport terminals. At Heathrow's Terminal 4 the shopper has a choice of at least a dozen different clothing brands. Retail operations contributed 44% to BAA's bottom line and that figure is expected to grow. As Des Wilson, sirector corporate and public affairs, comments: "The security element and sheer volume of passengers has made it necessary for people to spend more time at an airport, so food and retail outlets have become an essential feature. As tourists are attracted to SA they will demand better shopping facilities."

Imaginative tenant mix and innovative marketing skills persuade 40% of departing passengers to part with their money while waiting for flights. Airports have always had a reputation for ripping off the trapped consumer, so BAA has introduced a worldwide "no quibble" guarantee on any goods bought in its terminals. It will refund passengers (at no expense) or exchange goods. BAA also guarantees its prices are no higher than high street prices."

"Here is the answer. As soon as you get out of the Mystic you remove the hair bonnet and wipe the barrier cream from your hands and feet. Then you grab the towel and wipe off all of the excess spray from your body. You wipe down just like you would had you just gotten out of the shower. My wife and employees do it from the feet up, they say it keeps them from getting streaks. I never streak so I start at the head and work down. Rub down hard, do not pat dry. Do it just like drying from a shower. All you are removing is the excess, it has no effect at all on the color of the tan you will get from the Mystic. If you leave any excess solution on your body you will get marks on your clothes which will wipe off but look stupid if you are going back to work. "

"I started out pale and applied the mixture daily for about 5 days. Then I dropped down to applying every other day or every 2 days. You only got to do it daily when you first start out. Once you get the desired darkness, then you can drop down to every couple of days. As your dead skin cells naturally flake and shed you are replacing your tan with new layer of diluted ST. Therefore your tan is constantly turning over, refreshing itself. You never really go back to being pale."
