We put together some of our top gift picks each year so you can find the perfect gift for the road warrior on your list.
Here are the holiday gift picks from 2020.
The Apple AirTag is one of the must-have travel items.
Baggage delays and misplacements continue to be a global travel issue, and these coin-size item trackers are a lifesaver for those who travel with checked luggage. If you add one to your bag, you will be able to track it on your device. If an airline tells you that your bag is lost, you should have a better idea of where it is.
You can get a pack of four for less on Amazon if you want more than one.

Pack cubes can help you stay organized, maximize carry-on space and even help you avoid bed bugs when used strategically. If you're looking for some of the most stylish yet practical cubes, look no further than Away's offerings, which are made from water- resistant mesh nylon that both protects your clothes and lets you see what's inside without fully unpacking. If you're looking for a new piece of luggage, these would be great.
There is a set of 4 for $45.
I used to hear rave reviews about the benefits of wearing compression socks on flights. I put on my first pair of shoes on the world's longest flight and didn't understand why. I felt less tired and swollen after landing. Comrad has stylish socks that come in a number of colors. I don't leave home without them anymore.

I asked my wife for her top travel-themed holiday gift recommendation and she chose the Performance Jogger. I asked my editor the same question and she responded the same way. My editor said that if someone tried these pants, they would never fly long haul in anything else.
The joggers are available for both men and women in a variety of colors, so if there is a frequent flyer in your life, this is an easy way to make them more comfortable.

It's not a bad idea to include a laptop in a gift guide. The M2 MacBook Air is the best travel laptop on the market. The new thin-and-light design of the computer, along with some impressive performance upgrades, make it a joy for travelers. It will be easier to stay connected to your job if you have a full-size keyboard and trackpad.

Simple is better when it's needed. The Aeris Memory Foam Travel Pillow is recommended by us. It was the top ranked travel pillow because it was a basic, comfortable neck pillow that got the job done. It should make a long flight a bit more comfortable.
