T1’s Electronics Store sits airside as your last tech stop
This shop is in Terminal T1 after security, so you can grab cables or headphones without backtracking landside. It’s small, but it covers the basics you’re most likely to forget on a short hop out of Bologna. Expect typical airport pricing: phone chargers and USB-C cables run higher than city-center stores, but still under €30 for most standard items.
The focus here is travel tech: adapters for EU and UK plugs, over-ear and in-ear headphones, power banks, and memory cards for the camera you packed for Emilia-Romagna. You’ll also see a few mid-range Bluetooth speakers and laptop accessories, but nothing niche or high-end. Stock leans toward big brands you recognize rather than generic gear.
Figure 5–10 minutes to walk from most T1 Schengen gates to the Electronics Store, so this is a realistic stop even if boarding starts in 20 minutes. Staff usually handle quick swaps and returns on the spot, but don’t expect complex repairs or troubleshooting. If you need a simple cable, adapter, or last-minute power bank before a 2–3 hour flight, this is the most reliable option inside BLQ.
Tip: check your charger plug type and cable in the landside area of T1; if something’s missing, head straight here before you get pulled into food queues or duty free lines.
