The airport set built for the film was based on Düsseldorf International Airport. The set was a near-full-size replica built in a former hangar, with three working sets of escalators, and populated by many popular stores (e.g. Burger King, Mrs. Fields, W.H. Smith). Some of these brands were recruited by DreamWorks, while others approached the studio when word of the production got out. Many of the stores and restaurants were built by the construction crews that built the actual mall and airport stores for the respective companies, and some had fully-functioning equipment, such as ovens and cash registers. However, the inclusion of a brand on the set was not a guarantee of inclusion in the film; DreamWorks retained full control over editing, and some brands appear only briefly or not at all.
