7-Eleven, the iconic American convenience store that’s actually owned by a Japanese corporation, is bringing Slurpees and more to a U.S. airport terminal for the first time, with a store slated to open June 24 in the International Terminal at Los Angeles International.
The store, a bit smaller than most 7-Elevens at about 1000 square feet, will be on the arrivals level, outside security, catering to arriving passengers between gate and ground transportation.
To match airport operations, its hours will be 6 am to midnight. The product mix will be customized for airport travelers, but will have all the familiar 7-Eleven specialties. Compared to most airport convenience shops, it will have a significantly larger assortment of hot food items, including pizzas, sausages and more.
