Suggest a gift related to aviation

Posted by Low_Significance901@reddit | aviation | View on Reddit | 11 comments

Hi I’m not sure if this is the right sub to ask this, but my friend is turning 20 this week and she wants to be a pilot and loves planes in general.

I’ve given her multiple gifts related to aviation keychains, posters, model, passport cover etc.

I’m out of ideas now, is there anything which aviators want as a gift? Which is meaningful and budget friendly?

Both Airbus and Boeing have online stores where you can buy anything and everything with the logo on it, models, pens, clothing, bags, books, etc.

Since you have already given her model plane, my next suggestion is aviator sunglasses.

Whatever you decide to buy her... Use old maps as wrapping paper! 👍

Sportys.com has a lot of stuff she could use. Click on the Gift tab to get to the $30 & under link. You could also search Etsy for “airplane” or “aviation” and see what comes up. There’s probably a lot of airplane t-shirts out there. If she has a favorite airplane you could get a t-shirt with that airplane on it.

Flight radar premium subscription

The books “cockpit confidential”, “skunk works”, or “fate is the hunter” - all about aviation, but all in different ways

Lego Concorde (tho it’s not super cheap)

A set of airplane seats (also not cheap)

A ride in a heritage plane at a local air show (definitely not cheap, but a ride in a Stearman biplane is much less than I thought)

One of those Planetag keychains

A “date night” to an airport observation deck or an aviation museum if you have one close
