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 would you find a folding high chair for kids in a magazine. Seriously, that’s what i would call in air-dining for my child.
Programmable message-displaying belt buckle.
I always thought the “King Tut Throne” was crazy. An actual replica of an Egyptian looking throne. Who buys that? I can almost imagine putting one in my office and making my colleagues address me as your majesty.
A zombie statue that appears to be crawling out of your lawn!
Two words. Bacon Pillow! Skymall
I liked the Let’s eat grandma/comma saves lives T-shirt
The Yeti Tree Hugger creeps me out.
The best item I ever saw in a SkyMall magazine was a hiccup stick! Apparently, you place this plastic stick between your teeth and then drink a glass of water. Supposed to cure them in minutes ;) Thought it was definitely strange!
superme cape and backpack.
Pet rear end covers. Google it.
The ‘flea zapper electric comb’ caught my eye…I’ve wanted to try it on my cat ever since. Happy Holidays!
this is really nice
