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.
