                  RE:      SKYMALL, INC.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         We have acted as counsel to SkyMall, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the
"Company"), in connection with its Registration Statement on Form S-1 (the
"Registration Statement") filed under the Securities Act of 1933 relating to the
registration of 24,000 shares of its Common Stock, $.001 par value (the
"Shares").

         In that connection, we have examined such documents, corporate records
and other instruments as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for purposes of
this opinion, including the Articles of Incorporation, as amended, and the
Bylaws of the Company.

         Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

         1. The Company has been duly organized and is validly existing as a
corporation under the laws of the State of Nevada.

         2. The Shares, when issued, will be validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable.

         We hereby consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement.

                                            Very truly yours,

                                            SQUIRE, SANDERS & DEMPSEY L.L.P.
