1. Gucci Luggage

Step one when preparing for a big trip is to get out your luggage. Instead of the dusty duffel bag from the attic, give the traveller in your life the gift of a stylish, functional suitcase. This large case from Gucci is robust enough to be checked in the hold of a plane, and the wraparound band in green and red plus the patterned reverse are sure to bring some style to the terminal.

 

2. Leatherology Duffel

Sunny destinations require a change in eyewear. Meller, a sunglass brand founded in Barcelona, offers a range of stylish choices for the sunseeker. What’s more, they are reasonably priced, meaning none of the horror of losing a favourite pair of sunglasses to a large wave or an airplane’s seatback pocket. The Dashi model is strikingly designed and sure to keep you looking good in warmer climates.

7. Apple AirTag

In recent years, it feels like anybody on a long-haul flight has at least one luggage disaster story, be that missing, delayed, or shipped off to the wrong destination. Ensure the traveller in your life has supreme piece of mind by giving them the gift of knowledge, specifically the knowledge of where their suitcase is at all times during their journey. Apple’s AirTags have become a staple for seasoned travellers and make an ideal stocking stuffer this Christmas.

 

8. Loewe AirTag Case

If you are going to have an AirTag, don’t let it just rattle around in your suitcase—take it as an opportunity to add a compatible luggage tag. This one from Loewe is loud and sure to get people talking. The bright-red leather in the shape of a lobster is a one-of-a-kind opportunity to accessorize a suitcase.

 

9. Yeti Tumbler

Everyone knows somebody who won’t drink from the cart on an airplane. No matter how much we reassure them that it is safe, the water or coffee is something they won’t touch. To help this wary traveller stay hydrated, the perfect gift is a tumbler so they can bring their own liquids on board (purchased after security of course). The Yeti Rambler will keep drinks hot or cold, and the variety of colours means everyone can find a perfect vessel.
