Detroit Metro airport is expanding next year, to include a shopping mall outside of security. Including, brilliantly, everyday amenities: dry cleaning.
Drop off your stuff, check-in, get on a plane. When you get back from your trip, you pick up the clothes on the way. Genius!
Other ideas for airport services: How about a drugstore, but after security? As long as we’re still limited to bringing tiny tubes of toothpaste through security, why not sell a full line of products beyond security? Even if the liquids ban gets lifted, wouldn’t a CVS or Walgreens work reasonably well in a concourse?

You see these things in train stations, why not airports.
Maybe: flower shop (because you forgot about that birthday when you were on the road), liquor store (to buy the champagne to go with the flowers), drug store (because after the flowers and champagne you remain hopeful?). . . .

Funny, here at Zurich Airport (Switzerland0 there has been such a service (dry cleaning) for years …
