Christmas gift ideas for frequent flyers
Got a friend who sees more of Qantas’s flight attendants than they do their own family? Or a loved one that’s always off galavanting in exotic and exciting places?
We’ve put together a list of Christmas gifts perfect for the business, beach and intrepid travellers alike.
Luggage

Named by Choice as one of the three best carry-on suitcases on the market, this sturdy little number is the perfect gift for frequent travellers, especially business travellers.

Books
Good plane reads are an important part of travelling. And even if your loved one doesn’t like to read during flights, everybody loves a good book. Boy Swallows Universe is a much-lauded, award-winning novel from journalist Trent Dalton, but there are plenty more where that came from if it’s not their cup of tea.
