Restaurant, stores get first approval to open at airport
By Laura Ruane Originally posted on October 17, 2007
Dunkin' Donuts, Beaches Travelmart and a "10 Minute Manicure" concession got the first go-ahead to come to the public area of the passenger terminal at Southwest Florida International Airport.
Resident business people who advise Lee County leaders on airport matters endorsed the plan Tuesday. It next will go to county commissioners for a final decision.
Representatives of the lead concessionaire Paradies-Shell Factory II LLC made the sales pitch at the regular monthly meeting of the Airports Special Management Committee.
The proposal includes:
• Two full-service Dunkin' Donuts, and two Beaches Travelmarts, one of each near the entrances to concourses B and D; and
•A 10 Minute Manicure shop near Concourse D. The Miami-based chain already has locations in 11 airports across the nation. It sells upscale makeup products as well as nail polish, manicures and pedicures.
"We are the No. 1-requested service in any airport," said CEO Lorraine Brennan O'Neil, referring to a recent report in USA Today.
The cosmetics are manufactured in Denmark, with prices "that are greater than those at the drugstore, but way under the department store," O'Neil said.
Beaches Travelmarts sell books, magazines, health and beauty aids, traveler electronics and more. There's already a shop on Concourse C.
Of the new stores, the doughnut and travelmart pair near Concourse B tentatively is scheduled to open by mid-January. The D-side shops, including the nail salon, are scheduled to open by mid-March.
The Paradies Shops reported gross sales of $13.9 million at Southwest Florida International.
The new stores are projected to add $2.5 million a year in sales for the Paradies partnership, and about $400,000 a year in income for the Lee County Port Authority.
Airport leaders said revenues from retail sales help contain fees they must charge airlines, and indirectly encourage carriers to retain and expand local service.

Beauty on the go: Treats for your hands and feet at an airport near you
Friday, June 22nd, 2007
Here’s a good reason to take off your shoes at the airport (other than to pass through security)—to get a pedicure. At airports in Cincinnati, Miami, Toronto, Hartford and other North American cities, you can check in at a 10 Minute Manicure kiosk for manicures, pedicures, waxing and other treatments. Depending on the time you have, you can get the quickie $15 manicure, which is done in just ten minutes, or a more luxurious $70 foot reflexology session. There’s a place to store your luggage, and techs set timers to make sure you don’t miss your plane.
The founders had people like me in mind when they came up with this idea. I get to the airport two or three hours early, as requested, but don’t too much enjoy the long wait before boarding the plane—after all, there are only but so many minutes that can be spent aimlessly scanning magazine racks. 10 Minute Manicure COO and founder Vivian Jiminez says that their goal is to eliminate what they call ‘terminal face’ (that would be me)—the dreaded look passengers often possess walking down an airport concourse. “We’ve observed when travelers spot our store, they look at our name, check their watch and enter with a smile,” she says.
The newest location just opened up at the American Airlines Terminal at JFK in New York, which is perfect, because I inevitably end up scrambling to get a manicure and pedicure at the last minute before I go on vacation, and it will be nice to spend the 90 minute wait time at the airport doing something productive, like getting pampered. I’m going to check them out next month when I travel and will report back!
