Noted Alain Maca, President of

the key benefits of Terminal 4's redevelopment to make our terminal

team has worked closely with our group to deliver a world-class
program that will appeal to our diverse passenger mix."

Victoria's Secret stores in JFK Terminal 1, LAX Tom Bradley

The Victoria's Secret brand features a range of
functional-yet-chic accessories that add an extra pop of glamour to
business trips and weekend getaways alike. Customers will love the
branded cosmetic cases and multi-use fashion bags. This season's
colors in pebbled leather and Saffiano leather keep her on trend in
any destination! The airports' international clientele can also
obtain attractive passport holders, phone wallets, travel adaptors
and ear buds, plus smart phone and tablet accessories.
Victoria's Secret gets the savvy traveler to her destination
with celebrity-level style. Completing the assortment are must-have
essentials like so-soft scarves, high-quality sunglasses and those
perfect, signature Victoria's Secret panties. It's an incredible
way to track down last-minute gifts or spend a long layover
shopping on the fly.
The JFK T4 store surrounds every customer with undeniable
luxury. The storefront boasts an air of sophistication, while the

eye-catching focal walls. The store will also showcase both its
