Air Travel Gift Shopping on a Budget

Monday November 17, 2008
Given that air travel is slumping along with the global economy, I thought it would be wise to look for gifts for passengers that are easier to take on the wallet. My mission for the gift giving guide this year is to find as many options as possible for under $100. So from gadgets, to practical travel items, the gift idea lists will all feature gifts that cost less than $100. Some of the articles I have drawn up even feature gifts that are under $10.

So, with several holidays coming up, the gift giving ideas are going to flow on the blog. Bring on the budget options!

It was a bit of a challenge, but I wanted to find items that cost less than $10 and could serve as travel-related gifts. With that in mind - Budget Gift Giving Ideas - Gifts for $10 or Less has several gift ideas from luggage locks, to travel pillows, all at under $10 each.

Budget carry on luggage options are sometimes a bit on the scarce side online. However, I took a maximum budget of $75 and found several stylish carry ons that fit the bill. A lot of airlines are charging for you to check luggage, so a good carry on and careful packing can make travel without checked luggage a possibility. A few pieces of carry on luggage you can purchase for less than $75.
