Lotte Duty Free Ginza Perks
An airport-type city duty-free store is a duty-free store that allows you to pick up items at the departing airport.

Lotte Duty Free Ginza boasts a 4,400㎡-floor area, the largest of its kind in Tokyo. There are a lot of disadvantages to shopping at a duty-free store in an airport, like not being able to shop properly due to time constraints, or having difficulty moving due to the distance between the store and the boarding gate. In this store, however, you can take your time while shopping.
