by admin December 11, 2019

Last nights second annual TPG Awards was one for the books! From our party theme of futuristic chic to our amazing lineup of speakers, performers and celebrity guests, TPG transformed the Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum into a glamorous wonderland of AvGeek dreams. (Missed it? Check out our Instagram stories for a look behind the scenes.)

Our 500 guests came, saw and went home with premium gift bags of travel-perfect items for their next trip. Amongst that guest list were 75 VIPs, who each went home with an upgraded kit packed full of premium products from our generous sponsors.

Before we reveal everything that went into both gift bags, we have exciting news: Six TPG newsletter subscribers will win swag bags from the 2019 TPG Awards and you could be one of them. This Sunday, Dec. 15, five winners will be chosen at random from our email subscriber list to win one regular attendee swag bag apiece, while one lucky subscriber will receive a full VIP kit in a premium, Samsonite commuter backpack.

This multi-zippered pouch is perfect for keeping your valuable documents, foreign currency and other important items close at hand on the road.

Trtl neck support

One of the more innovative items in travel products, the Trtl is straight up not a pillow, according to one of our own TPG staffers. Instead, this flexible curved support is padded with soft knit material and gently cradles your head while you sleep upright, giving your neck a break from the dreaded side lean.

Evian hydration spray

This hydrating facial spray comes in a travel-friendly size but delivers micro-droplets of natural mineral water in a leak-proof canister. We cant think of anything more refreshing halfway through a long-haul flight in recycled plane air.

Summer Fridays jet lag mask

You dont have to be a jetsetter to have that lag, but that jet lag definitely will set in on your skin without proper care. This hydrating mask coats your skin with vitamins, ceramides, antioxidants and gently exfoliating extracts, then wipes off with a gentle cloth no need for a water rinse.

The Wolf Project facial sheet mask

Were big fans of staying hydrated on planes, and one of our tips for surviving a long-haul flight in economy class is by applying a good sheet mask mid-flight. Hey, if its good enough for Chrissy Teigen, its good enough for us.

Humangear Gobites

Comrad compression socks

These medical grade compression socks help boost your blood circulation through your legs, which is important on long flights where tight quarters in economy increase the risk of blood clots.
