Most people... There's something called a golden hour in airport speak.
And the golden hour is the 60 minutes after you go through security and before you have to head for your plane.

Yeah.
They know that you've time on your hands and they know that you probably have a few bob in your pocket because you're going on holiday.
So it's like, yeah, I will buy those extra pair of sunglasses.
Or I'll buy that dumb pair of shorts in the shop or whatever it might be.
And they know that and they relentlessly exploit it.
