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!

Only in the air – Aerogardens
My “Only in the Air” entry – I saw the “NFL Forest Face” once where you decorate your favorite tree with eyes/nose/lips made of resin and a cap from your favorite team. I think if I want someone to know I’m a fan of a certain team, a baseball cap works just fine!
My “only in the air” item was a dog crate end table, how stylish… Haha who would really buy something that looks like a cage for end tables?
Mine has to be the Yeti statues. Why would you need one of these other than for a joke? Not only can you get just one, but you can get a set of multiple sizes. Awesome!
An electric ice scraper that you plug into your cigarette lighter. Just what I always wanted.
Rechargeable heated slippers Only in the Air LOL
I was already following you on Twitter, so I undid you and re-followed again (I do not have Farcebook).
Anyway one thing I remember seeing was a tv remote that was a Harry Potter wand. I thought it was sort of silly yet somehow still useful…..
“Nano” toothpaste. Nano is the new buzzword for everything these days.But, the only thing even close to nano about this that I could see was “tiny bubbles” created when you brushed! Get real.
A Solar Power Cube for charging your devices that costs $1,199.99
Self Folding Towel Animals!
I saw these Custom pet canvas that you can have your dog painted into formal wear etc…crazy
travel weights you fill with water – Only In The Air
