Sky Mall - A Quick Guide

Chances are if you have flown on an airplane recently you have at least heard of the sky mall. The sky mall is basically what it sounds like, a mall in the sky. It's not a physical mall on an airplane with stores. It's a catalog found on airplanes with all kinds of interesting things. While you're flying you can browse through the catalog and pick out all kinds of interesting gift ideas and order them through a 1-800 number or online. Some airlines also offer special deals if you place an order while you are flying.

So what kind of interesting items can you find in the sky mall? Well, there are all kinds of electronic items, many of which cannot be found in stores. One great electronic item is the "Icuiti's iWear". For those people that have video iPods, this device plugs into the bottom. Then, you put on a your iWear, which is like wearing sunglasses. The glasses allow you to see the screen as a large 36" screen instead of the 2" screen on the iPod. So, no matter where you go, you have your own personal theater. Price range is approximately $299 to $499.

The Sky Mall even has small home appliances. One great kitchen appliance is the "Pop-Up Hot Dog Cooker". This is basically like a toaster, except made for hotdogs. It has enough room for two hot dogs and two buns. Just like a regular toaster, this allows you to pick just how toasted you want your hot dogs. This neat appliance is priced around $49.95. Not a bad deal! Another great kitchen appliance available through the Sky Mall is the "Soft/Hard Ice Cream Maker". For around $60 you can make your own soft serve ice cream at home. The machine makes enough ice cream to make 8 cones. The machine can also make sherbet, frozen yogurt, and slushes.

The Sky Mall also has plenty of items for pet lovers. You can buy one of several different pet beds for your furry friends. You can also buy the "Pet Staircase". This miniature staircase helps small or disabled dogs get on things, like furniture easier. Prices for the staircases vary depending on the size. Prices generally range from $80 to $150. What else can you get for your pets? Electronic feeders that allow your pet to get fed a certain amount of food at certain times. This definitely comes in handy while you're out of town. The Sky Mall also has electronic drinking fountains so your pets have fresh running water. Of course, this is only for the most spoiled pets!
