Shop Now & Collect on Return
If you buy something before departure but do not want to take it on holiday, use Stansted Airport's free Shop Now & Collect on Return service. The store team can arrange for your purchase to be held while you are away.
When you return, collect your shopping from Excess Baggage next to international arrivals. This is a different service from Reserve & Collect:

- Check your airline's cabin-baggage rules if you plan to carry purchases onto your flight.
