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!

I love electronics and I was hoping to get some Christmas presents for my family by this. Reading SkyMall magazines are one of my favorite things to do on a plane
My Only in the Air has to be the potty training kit for your cat. I don’t understand how anybody would want their cat using the same toilet they use.
a patch of fake grass for dogs to pee on.
Spindle and Sin Cold Shot Chiller for $199
A ceramic Smoking Baby – you put a little cigarette in its mouth (they are supplied in the package I’m relieved to say) and the stupid thing “smokes” them. My sister actually bought this for me. I paid her back on her next birthday by giving her a seriously ugly, rhinestone studded, sweater guard.
The potty trained cat video and kit is a hoot!
A dog snuggie
So, now there are all sorts of light emitting wands that thicken your hair. Amazing.
Forest face and mustache mirror have to be within the top ten . I have more though ; much more .

The doggy porch potty.
The Only In The Air product is that awesome flight pillow in the Skymall magazine!
My “Only In The Air” gizmo would be a 3G/ 4G/ wifi networked device with gps that you could hide in all of your luggage pieces, so you could track them with the “Find My iPad/ iPhone” app and if necessary, it could sound a siren to help you locate your bags if someone else tries to walk off with them….
