Amazon’s checkout-free Go stores are really starting to take off.
The online retail giant has been in contact with several major U.S. airports to discuss opening new cashier-less Amazon Go locations, according to public records.
Both Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), which is the second-busiest airport in the country, and San Jose International Airport (SJC) are locations Amazon expressed interest in, according to a Reuters report.
One airport, Dallas Fort Worth International (DFW), reportedly reached out to Amazon first, expressing interest in bringing the e-commerce giant’s brick-and-mortar convenience store to its location.
Whether Amazon Go actually shows up in any of these locations remains to be seen. Airport officials have stated that the company would be required to go through the same competitive bidding process that it requires of all of its concessionaires.

Customers check-in when entering the shop using their smartphone. After that, customers just grab whatever items they'd like to purchase and place them in their bag.
Amazon’s proprietary "Walk Out" technology consisting of cameras and sensors installed throughout the store track a customer's items and charges the account used on a customer's phone that is scanned when they walk into the store.
While Amazon Go stores are still in the experimental phase, the company has recently been focused on expanding the model. Amazon currently has multiple Go locations running in Seattleand Chicago, with the cashierless convenience store soon coming to New Yorkand San Franciscoas well. It was reported last week that Amazon is testing outusing its Go technology on a full-sized supermarket, as opposed to its smaller convenience store locations.
With hundreds of millions of people traveling through airports in the U.S. each year, the company clearly sees an opening for its quick-stop Amazon Go stores.
