The holiday season has arrived, and with it comes the annual challenge of selecting the perfect gifts for loved ones. For those who frequently travel, a curated list of 25 gift ideas is available, featuring travel tech, luggage, and gear that have been tested and approved by The Points Guy (TPG) team.

Among the top picks are Apple AirTags, described as essential for travelers this season. "While many travelers have and use AirTags, you almost can't have too many," notes TPG. These trackers help locate checked luggage amidst ongoing global baggage issues.

Another recommendation is Apple's AirPods Pro, praised for their ease of use and noise-canceling capabilities. "The second-generation Pros bring major improvements to the noise cancellation experience," according to TPG.

Other practical items include Riemot's Luggage Travel Cup Holder for carrying beverages at airports and Wanderlust Passport notebooks for documenting journeys. Portable chargers from Q Slim ensure devices remain powered on long trips.

Security-conscious travelers might appreciate Sabre's Door Stop Security Alarm, while Belkin’s BoostCharge Pro offers wireless charging solutions. Vuori Joggers provide comfort during travels, endorsed by TPG's senior editorial director Summer Hull.

For reading enthusiasts, Amazon Kindle continues to be a favored choice due to its lightweight design and extensive library access. Additionally, Comrad Compression Socks promote circulation during extended periods of sitting.
