SPAIN. Luggage services provider and retailer Excess Baggage Company has secured a five-year deal to operate three outlets at Madrid Barajas Airport. The deal, worth an estimated €8 million in sales, marks the company’s first venture in Spain.
In the Terminal 4 Departures hall a store will offer shipping services as well as a retail range of luggage, including brands such as Rimowa, Eagle Creek, Delsey, Victorinox and Travelpro as well as local brands.
In the T4 Arrivals hall another outlet will include a left luggage counter, and a further store adjacent to T1 Arrivals will offer left luggage and bag shipping services as well as selling travel goods.

Excess Baggage Company CEO David Elliott said; “We have been providing these services across rail stations and airports throughout the UK for many years, and we are very excited to now be bringing Excess Baggage Company to one of Spain’s most important airports.
“We believe that our services will help Madrid Barajas retain its position as an airport capital of the twenty-first century. In addition, replacing a locker-based system with over-the-counter left luggage services is expected to generate between three to four times more revenue. We very much hope that these will be the first of many outlets to open in Spanish airports.”
