CONGRATULATIONS to our winner: Keri Butler, seen in the photo here with her haul! Keri’s wine glass-holding necklace was just one of hundreds of great (and ridiculous) products we received as answers. See them all in the comments below!
The contest (now over):
Have you ever been on a plane, flipping through one of those in-flight catalogs, and seen an item that’s made you laugh, or point out to your seatmate, or just shake your head? Something like, say:
- A remote-controlled towel
- A hat that can remember your name
- Dog ice skates
- Edible bookmarks
- A TV powered by bacon grease
None of those items are real, but in the air—based on what else is out there—they really could be. In our “Only In The Air” contest with Gogo, we’re asking for the craziest, most ridiculous, coolest, most ingenious, most impractical, or just most memorable product you’ve ever seen in an in-flight catalog. If it made you think, “Only In The Air,” we want to hear about it.
From the pool of readers who share their favorites, one lucky winner will be picked to win a Macbook Air, an iPad and an Apple TV!

OK, as a certified Apple fanboy, the only item I lack is a MACBOOK AIR. GIMME SUM DAT!! Oh–and a flying Gogo dawg, too. I want one!! HAHAAHAA
I think the funniest thing I ever saw in an In Flight catalog on a plane was a toilet paper roll heater! It was funny because I had no idea that was an issue! Hahaha
There is a $360 self-cleaning litter box that looks like a scale-to-size Death Star. http://www.skymall.com/litter-robots/GAPC100.html

i recently saw a singing toothbrush in sky mall! who doesn’t want to listen to justin beiber or gangnam style while brushing their teeth??
Keeping the season in mind – I once saw a Christmas tree all decorated in Judaica. SO Fantastic ;)
Crazy, I don’t know- ingenious is more like it. The brownie pan that gives them all edges from the SkyMall catalog. :-)
The most ridiculous thing I have seen in the skymall catalog is the lawn yeti that stands about 5 feet tall.
I saw the No!No! for the first time in an inflight mag and I thought it sounded way too good to be true, and totally ridiculous. Now I seem to see it on TV every week. Le sigh.
My husband bought a small Yeti statue (which oddly has great abs) and hid it in the trees in our backyard as a joke for our 3 boys. It’s memorable for everyone that spots it in our yard!
My ‘only in the Air’ gadget is the doggie bed that automatically warms up when the doggie enters.
