Something for Father’s Day

What can you buy the man you’ve (quite literally) looked up to all your life, to show him just how much you love and appreciate him? Finding the perfect gift for your father figure who always says he doesn’t want anything for Father’s Day can be tricky, so we’ve rounded up some gift ideas in this Father’s Day gift guide. Whether he’s a beer enthusiast, an avid traveller or an outdoorsy dad, you’re sure to find a meaningful gift which he’ll love here at the airport. Don’t forget that shoppers get two hours of free parking AND a chance to win €500 worth of airport shopping and flight vouchers.

 

Something for the athletic dad

If your dad leads an active lifestyle, and has been trying to get you to join him for a run, a swim or a trip to the gym for years, these gifts might just be the encouragement he needs to keep working towards achieving his fitness goals.

Make sure he’s protected in the sun with a good pair of practical sports sunglasses by Oakley, or help him track his daily progress with this Fossil smart watch, which might just be the little boost he needs when he hits a slump. Check out the new Oakley and Fossil collections at our HEBE outlet.

You can also never go wrong with a practical yet versatile duffle bag, like this sleek Paradiver Light model from Samsonite, which he can use to carry his workout clothes or pack his travel essentials on his next adventure abroad.

Something for the tech-savvy dad

Whether he’s interested in snapping photos of the family or looking to upgrade his workspace, we’ve got you covered.

Working from home has brought with it a new set of challenges, so help your dad shut out the noise and focus with a pair of wireless, noise cancelling JBL headphones, with comfortable ear cups for prolonged use, from WHSmith.

For busy note-takers who are always misplacing their papers, the Montblanc Augmented Paper from HEBE is the way to go. An impressive piece of technology, the tablet allows users to write on paper stored in an elegant leather folio with those notes from each pad saved as a digital file accessible on any personal device.

If he uses his phone for everything, including capturing priceless family moments, playing music and storing work documents, he might be interested in upgrading to the latest Apple iPhone 12 Pro that can not only handle multiple functions, but also has up to 256GB of storage space. Head to Epic at the airport to take a closer look at the newest iPhone models.

Something for the jet-setting dad

If your dad is down with a bad case of the travel bug and counting the days until his next trip, fuel his wanderlust by upgrading his travel gear.

This insulated tumbler from Costa Coffee will not only keep your dad’s coffee hot (or cold) for the long haul, but this tumbler will also get your dad a 15% discount at any Costa Coffee outlet in Malta.

For the dad looking for a trusty new travel partner, we’ve got a perfect match. Samsonite’s Magnum Eco spinner luggage collection, made from recycled post-consumer waste, is just as secure as it is sustainable.

Then, complete his travel set with this practical hanging toiletry kit, which you can also find at Samsonite.

 

Something for the sharpest dad in the room

Prickly hugs or kisses are so last year. If he’s over his quarantine beard as much as you are, head to the Pharmacy or WHSmith to check out our range of Remington shavers.

And what goes best with a clean shave? A fresh scent, of course! From Dolce and Gabbana to Paco Rabanne, find the scent that best fits your dad’s personality at WHSmith.

Complete the look with a swanky new Obaku watch from Hebe, which exudes effortless style but won’t break the bank.

Something unexpected for the dad who has everything

He’s opened countless doors for you, now it’s time to open new doors for Dad. Take his taste buds on an adventure with Michelin-starred chef Tom Kerridge’s cookbook Tom’s Table, get him into DIY by gifting him The Tool Book or, for the eternal hoptimist, consider this useful Where To Drink Beer guide. Find them all at WHSmith or Agenda Bookshop inside our Check-In Hall.
