The retail program also includes national brands such as Brookstone, featuring unique gifts and travel essentials; Lids, the world's largest retailer of hats; and iGo, offering high-tech accessories for the hard-core traveler.

CA One also will introduce proprietary brands tailored to Detroit, including www.news.detroit, where travelers can choose from a wide selection of magazines, newspapers, periodicals, paperbacks and hardcover books as well as sundries and travel accessories; and www.news-gifts.detroit, where regional gifts and souvenirs complement a selection of reading materials and travel items.
