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!

The most ridiculous thing I’ve seen in an in-flight catalog was a device to “fix” golfer’s tan. Basically it was a tanning booth for your feet!
Weirdest thing I saw – a doggy water bed! Gotta love those onboard magazine malls.
The weirdest was definitely Protein Ketchup!
“Juicy Crittoure Pawfum,” a perfume for your pet, seems pretty outrageous to me. ;)
Oh this made me laugh. Just this morning a few co-workers and I were laughing about the Beverage Bra! (I *may* or may not want one)!
A Gogo wireless router bowtie – take your signal with you wherever your dapper attire will take you
A Stabilizing Monopod for camera. Pretty slick!
Only in the Air Product – An outdoor garden thing that appears to look like a dead man crawling out of the earth. Who buys that? No not just Halloween. This is an all year offered item.
I love the kitty cat potty training kit!
