                                  COMMON STOCK

     This Prospectus  relates to the sale (the  "Offering") of 744,000 shares of
common stock, $.001 par value per share (the "Common Stock"), of SkyMall,  Inc.,
a Nevada  corporation  ("SkyMall" or the  "Company"),  which are held by certain
shareholders of the Company (the "Selling Securityholders").  The Company issued
564,000  shares  of  the  Common  Stock  to  the  Selling  Securityholders  upon
conversion of a series of 6% Dividend Paying  Convertible  Redeemable  Preferred
Stock (the  "Convertible  Preferred Stock") issued by the Company on October 11,
1996 and converted  upon  effectiveness  of the Company's  initial  underwritten
public  offering on December 11, 1996.  The remaining  180,000  shares of Common
Stock are issuable upon the exercise of certain warrants (the "Warrants") issued
by the Company to the Selling  Securityholders in October 1996. The Common Stock
offered  by this  Prospectus  may be  sold  from  time  to  time by the  Selling
Securityholders,  provided a current registration statement with respect to such
securities  is  then  in  effect.   See  "Plan  of  Distribution"  and  "Selling
Securityholders."

     The  distribution  of the  shares of  Common  Stock  offered  hereby by the
Selling  Securityholders  may be effected in one or more  transactions  that may
take place on one or more exchanges, in the over-the-counter  market,  including
ordinary  broker's  transactions,  privately-negotiated  transactions or through
sales to one or more dealers for resale of such  securities  as  principals,  at
market  prices  prevailing  at the  time of  sale,  at  prices  related  to such
prevailing  market  prices  or at  negotiated  prices.  Usual and  customary  or
specifically negotiated brokerage fees or commissions may be paid by the Selling
Securityholders.

     The Selling Securityholders and intermediaries through whom such securities
are sold may be deemed  "underwriters"  within the meaning of the Securities Act
of 1933,  as amended (the  "Securities  Act"),  with  respect to the  securities
offered,  and  any  profits  realized  or  commissions  received  may be  deemed
underwriting compensation.

     None of the proceeds  from the sale of the shares of Common  Stock  offered
hereby will be received  by the  Company;  however,  the  Company  will  receive
proceeds from the exercise,  if any, of the Warrants.  Substantially  all of the
expenses in connection  with the  registration of the Common Stock will be borne
by the Company, except for any underwriter's,  brokers' and dealers' commissions
and/or discounts. See "Plan of Distribution."

     The Common Stock is traded on the Nasdaq  National  Market under the symbol
"SKYM." On June 23,  1998 the last  reported  bid price for the Common  Stock as
reported on the Nasdaq National Market was $4.50.

                               PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

     THE FOLLOWING IS A SUMMARY OF CERTAIN INFORMATION INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE
INTO THIS PROSPECTUS. REFERENCE IS MADE TO, AND THIS SUMMARY IS QUALIFIED IN ITS
ENTIRETY BY, THE MORE DETAILED INFORMATION AND FINANCIAL  STATEMENTS,  INCLUDING
THE NOTES THERETO,  INCORPORATED  BY REFERENCE INTO THIS  PROSPECTUS.  INVESTORS
SHOULD  CAREFULLY  CONSIDER THE  INFORMATION  SET FORTH UNDER THE HEADING  "RISK
FACTORS."

                                   THE COMPANY

     SkyMall,  Inc. ("SkyMall" or the "Company"),  the largest in-flight catalog
company in the United States, makes high-quality products and services available
to more than 400 million  airline  passengers per year. The Company  markets and
sells a  broad  selection  of  premium  merchandise  provided  by  participating
merchants,  including major catalog companies and specialty  retailers,  such as
Brookstone(R), Frontgate(R), Hammacher Schlemmer, Norm Thompson(R)/Solutions(R),
The  Sharper  Image(R)  and the Wine  Enthusiast[TM].  The  merchandise  of each
participating merchant is presented in a separate section of the SkyMall catalog
to allow browsing from "store to store,"  providing the  convenience and variety
of an upscale shopping mall  environment.  Substantially  all of the merchandise
sold by the Company is shipped directly to customers by participating merchants,
thus avoiding  significant  inventory risk. The Company has exclusive agreements
to place its catalogs in aircraft  seat pockets on 16  airlines,  which  carried
approximately 70 percent of all domestic  passengers in 1997,  including America
West, Continental,  Delta,  Southwest,  TWA, United and US Airways. As a result,
the Company believes the SkyMall catalog is available to over  approximately 1.1
million  domestic  airline  passengers  each day.  The Company  has  experienced
substantial growth since it restructured operations in 1994. Total revenues have
increased  from  approximately  $30.3  million  in 1994 to  approximately  $60.8
million in 1997, for a compound annual growth rate of 26 percent.  The Company's
revenue per  passenger  enplanement  on flights  carrying  the  SkyMall  catalog
increased from approximately $0.06 in 1994 to approximately $0.11 in 1997, for a
compound annual growth rate of 22 percent.

     The Company's  foundation is built on its relationships with its customers,
airline, and merchant partners. The Company's customers enjoy the convenience of
being able to shop for a wide variety of innovative  products  while  traveling.
The Company offers a no mark-up,  fair price  guarantee  under which the Company
will refund the price  difference if the customer finds the same item advertised
elsewhere  at a lower  price.  In order to  enhance  the  ongoing  appeal of its
product offerings,  the Company produces four new catalogs per year. The Company
maintains a toll free 24-hour  telephone  ordering  service (from air and ground
phones),  and an in-house  staff of  customer  service  representatives  who are
trained to provide  exemplary  service in order to build strong customer loyalty
and increase revenue from repeat and referral business.

     In exchange for  placement of its catalogs in aircraft  seat  pockets,  the
Company pays each airline partner a monthly  commission based on net merchandise
revenues generated by the Company from sales to that airline's passengers.  Some
of the Company's  airline  agreements  also require  payment of minimum  monthly
fees. The Company's  airline partners  benefit from additional  revenue and from
being able to enhance the in-flight  experience of their passengers by providing
the Company's catalog as an additional amenity.

     Participating  merchants obtain exposure for their products and services to
a  demographically  diverse group of potential  customers  with strong  economic
profiles, generate additional revenues and acquire new customers to add to their
own proprietary mailing lists. Under contracts with participating merchants, the
Company  earns  percentages  of  revenues  generated  by  the  Company's  sales,
placement fees for inclusion of the merchants'  products in the SkyMall catalog,
or a  combination  thereof.  The  SkyMall  catalog  typically  features  over 60
participating merchants.

     The Company's  principal  executive  offices are located at and its mailing
address is 1520 East Pima Street,  Phoenix,  Arizona 85034. The telephone number
of the Company is (602) 254-9777.

                                  RISK FACTORS

     AN INVESTMENT IN THE SECURITIES  OFFERED  HEREBY  INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF
RISK.  PROSPECTIVE  INVESTORS,  PRIOR TO MAKING AN INVESTMENT IN THE SECURITIES,
SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING RISK FACTORS, AMONG OTHERS,  RELATING TO
THE COMPANY AND THIS OFFERING.

LIMITED   HISTORY  OF   PROFITABLE   OPERATIONS;   NO   ASSURANCE  OF  CONTINUED
PROFITABILITY

     The Company  commenced  operations in late 1990,  however,  prior to fiscal
1995 the Company incurred substantial losses. There can be no assurance that the
Company's operations will remain profitable.

NO ASSURANCE OF CONTINUED GROWTH

     Since its inception,  SkyMall has rapidly expanded its operations,  growing
from total  revenues of $0.02 million in 1990 to total revenues of $60.8 million
in 1997. The Company's  continued growth will depend to a significant  degree on
its ability to increase  revenue per  passenger,  broaden its  customer  base by
entering  into  relationships  with  new  domestic  and  foreign  airlines,  and
implement other programs that increase the  circulation of the SkyMall  catalog.
The  Company's  ability to implement  its growth  strategy will also depend on a
number  of other  factors,  many of which  are or may be  beyond  the  Company's
control,  including  (i) the ability of the Company to select  products  for its
catalog that appeal to its customer base, (ii) sustained or increased  levels of
airline travel,  particularly in domestic airline  markets,  (iii) the continued
perception  by  participating  merchants  that the Company  offers an  effective
marketing channel for their products and services, (iv) the Company's ability to
attract,  train and  retain  qualified  employees  and  management,  and (v) the
continued  profitability of existing operations.  There can be no assurance that
the Company will be able to  successfully  implement its growth strategy or that
its planned expansion will be profitable.

DEPENDENCE ON AIRLINE RELATIONSHIPS

     The Company's  business  depends  significantly on its  relationships  with
airlines and its ability to have its catalogs placed on a substantial portion of
domestic  airline  flights.  The Company's  agreements with its airline partners
typically have one-year terms, but generally permit the airline to terminate the
relationship on 60 to 180 days' advance  notice.  There can be no assurance that
the  Company's  airline  partners  will continue  their  relationships  with the
Company  and  the  loss  of one or more  of the  Company's  significant  airline
partners  could  have a  material  adverse  affect  on the  Company's  financial
condition and results of operations.

INCREASES IN PAPER COSTS AND AIRLINE FUEL PRICES

     The cost of paper used to print the Company's catalogs and the fees paid to
airlines to reimburse them for the increased fuel costs associated with carrying
the Company's  catalogs are  significant  expenses of the Company's  operations.
Historically,  paper and airline fuel prices have fluctuated  significantly from
time to time.  Prices  in the  paper  market  remain  volatile  and the  Company
anticipates  that its paper costs will  increase in 1998 in  comparison to 1997.
Any  significant  increases in paper or airline fuel costs  reimbursable  by the
Company  could  have  a  material  adverse  effect  on the  Company's  financial
condition and results of operations.

CREDIT RISK

     Some  participating  merchants  agree to pay a placement fee to the Company
for inclusion of their  merchandise in the SkyMall catalog.  The Company records
an account  receivable  from the merchant for the placement fee ratably for each
month of the catalog issue.  In some cases,  the Company  collects the placement
fee either  from the  merchant  or by  withholding  it from  amounts  due to the
merchant for  merchandise  sold. To the extent that the placement fee receivable
exceeds  the sales of the  merchant's  products  and the  merchant  is unable or
unwilling  to pay the  difference  to the  Company,  the Company may  experience
credit  losses  which  could have a  material  adverse  effect on the  Company's
financial condition and results of operations.


                                        5

<PAGE>

COMPETITION

     From time to time,  competitors,  typically other catalog  retailers,  have
attempted  to secure  contracts  with  airlines  to offer  merchandise  to their
passengers.  In 1997, Northwest Airlines began offering a merchandise catalog to
its  customers  through  a  competitor  of the  Company.  Various  international
airlines also offer merchandise catalogs to their passengers through competitors
of  the  Company.   The  Company  also  faces  competition  for  customers  from
airport-based  retailers,  duty-free  retailers,  specialty  stores,  department
stores  and  specialty  and  general  merchandise  catalogs,  many of which have
greater  financial and marketing  resources than the Company.  In addition,  the
Company  competes for customers with other in-flight  marketing  media,  such as
airline-sponsored in-flight magazines and airline video programming.  All of the
products and  services  offered by the Company can also be found in other retail
stores and catalogs.

RELIANCE ON INFORMATION AND TELECOMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMS

     The  Company   processes  a  large  volume  of  relatively   small  orders.
Consequently,  the  Company's  success  depends to a  significant  degree on the
effective  operation of its  information  and  telecommunications  systems.  Any
extended  failure of the Company's  information and  telecommunications  systems
could have a material  adverse effect on the Company's  financial  condition and
results of operations.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

     Many software programs use only two digits to identify the year in the date
field.  If such programs are not corrected,  date data  concerning the Year 2000
could cause many computer  applications to fail,  lock-up or generate  erroneous
results.  The Company has committed personnel and resources to resolve potential
Year 2000  issues,  and is in the  process  of  identifying  and  assessing  its
mission-critical systems related to the Year 2000. Although the Company plans to
address Year 2000 issues with respect to its  mission-critical  internal systems
in sufficient time prior to the century rollover, there can be no assurance that
there will not be  interruption  of  operations or other  limitations  of system
functionality,  or that the Company  will not incur  substantial  costs to avoid
such  occurrences.  There  can  also be no  assurance  that  there  will  not be
interruption  of operations as a result of potential  limitations  of systems of
the parties with whom the Company has relationships for product  fulfillment and
distribution.  The Company is currently assessing the cost to remediate its Year
2000 issues. Although the actual cost to remediate these issues is not yet fully
known,  based upon  information to date, it is not expected that the remediation
will have a material  impact on the Company's  financial  condition or operating
results.

SEASONALITY

     The Company's business is seasonal in nature, with its sales peak typically
occurring during the holiday selling season of the fourth quarter.  During 1997,
approximately  40 percent of the Company's net merchandise  sales were generated
in the fourth quarter.  Any substantial decrease in sales for the fourth quarter
could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations.

PRODUCT LIABILITY

     The Company's catalog  typically  features over 1,250 products and services
from more than 60 participating  merchants.  Generally, the Company's agreements
with its participating  merchants require the merchants to indemnify the Company
for any  losses  arising  from  product  liability  claims  made  by  customers,
including the costs of defending any such claims, and to carry product liability
insurance that names SkyMall as an additional insured. In addition,  the Company
maintains  product  liability  insurance in the aggregate amount of $2.0 million
and $1.0  million per  occurrence.  To the extent that a merchant  was unable or
unwilling to indemnify the Company as required, and any such losses exceeded the
Company's  insurance coverage or were not covered by the Company's insurer,  the
Company's  financial  condition  and results of  operations  could be materially
adversely affected.

RELIANCE ON KEY PERSONNEL

     The  Company  is  dependent  on the  services  of  Robert M.  Worsley,  its
chairman,  president and chief executive officer, and on the services of certain
other executive officers.  The loss of Mr. Worsley's services or of the services


                                       6

<PAGE>

of certain other executive  officers could have a material adverse effect on the
Company.

CONTROL BY SHAREHOLDER

     As of May 31, 1998, Mr. Worsley and his wife (the  "Worsleys") own and have
options to purchase  approximately  63.2% of the  Company's  outstanding  Common
Stock. Accordingly, the Worsleys have the ability to significantly influence the
affairs of the Company and matters requiring a shareholder  vote,  including the
election of the Company's  directors,  the  amendment of the  Company's  charter
documents,  the merger or  dissolution  of the  Company,  and the sale of all or
substantially all of the Company's assets.  The voting power of the Worsleys may
also  discourage or prevent any proposed  takeover of the Company  pursuant to a
tender offer.

                                 USE OF PROCEEDS

     None of the  proceeds  of the sale of the  shares of Common  Stock  offered
hereby will be received  by the  Company;  however,  the  Company  will  receive
proceeds  from the exercise,  if any, of the Warrants.  Assuming that all of the
Warrants  are  exercised,  the net  proceeds to the Company are  estimated to be
approximately  $1,440,000.  The proceeds  received upon exercise of the Warrants
will be allocated to the Company's working capital for its operations.


                         DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

     An  aggregate  of 180,000 of the  744,000  shares of Common  Stock  offered
hereby are issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants. The terms of the Warrants
provide  that  the per  share  exercise  price  shall be $8.00  per  share.  The
subsequent  sale of the Common Stock  received upon the exercise of the Warrants
and  the  sale  of the  remaining  564,000  shares  of  Common  Stock  currently
outstanding  will be determined by the  respective  holders of such Common Stock
and may be based on  market  prices  prevailing  at the time of sale,  at prices
relating to such prevailing market prices, or at negotiated prices.


                              PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

     The Company  will not receive any of the  proceeds  from the sale of any of
the shares of Common Stock  offered  hereby (the  "Offered  Securities")  by the
Selling  Securityholders;  however,  the Company will receive  proceeds from the
exercise, if any, of the Warrants.  The Offered Securities may be sold from time
to time by the Selling Securityholders,  or by pledgees,  donees, transferees or
other successors in interest. Such sales may be made on one or more exchanges or
in the  over-the-counter  market  or  otherwise,  at  prices  and at terms  then
prevailing  or at  prices  related  to the  then  current  market  price,  or in
negotiated  transactions.  The Offered  Securities may be sold in one or more of
the  following  types  of   transactions:   (a)  a  block  trade  in  which  the
broker-dealer  so engaged will attempt to sell the Offered  Securities  as agent
but may position  and resell a portion of the block as  principal to  facilitate
the  transaction;  (b) purchases by a  broker-dealer  as principal and resale by
such broker-dealer for its account pursuant to this Prospectus;  (c) an exchange
distribution  in accordance  with the rules of such  exchange;  and (d) ordinary
brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers.
In effecting sales,  broker-dealers  engaged by the Selling  Securityholders may
arrange for other broker-dealers to participate in the resales.

     In connection with  distributions  of the Offered  Securities or otherwise,
the  Selling   Securityholders   may  enter  into  hedging   transactions   with
broker-dealers. In connection with such transactions,  broker-dealers may engage
in short sales of the Offered  Securities in the course of hedging the positions
they assume with Selling  Securityholders.  The Selling Securityholders may also
sell Offered  Securities short and redeliver the Offered Securities to close out
such short positions.  The Selling Securityholders may also enter into option or
other  transactions  with  broker-dealers  which  require  the  delivery  to the
broker-dealer of the Offered  Securities,  which the broker-dealer may resell or
otherwise transfer pursuant to this Prospectus.  The Selling Securityholders may
also loan or pledge Offered  Securities to a broker-dealer and the broker-dealer
may sell the Offered Securities so loaned or, upon a default,  the broker-dealer
may effect sales of the pledged Offered Securities pursuant to this Prospectus.

     Broker-dealers   or  agents  may  receive   compensation  in  the  form  of
commissions, discounts or concessions from Selling Securityholders in amounts to
be negotiated in connection  with the sale.  Such  broker-dealers  and any other
participating  broker-dealers  may be deemed  to be  "underwriters"  within  the
meaning  of the  Securities  Act in  connection  with  such  sales  and any such
commission, discount or concession may be deemed to be underwriting discounts or
commissions  under the Securities  Act. In addition,  any securities  covered by
this  Prospectus  which  qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 may be sold under
Rule 144 rather than pursuant to this Prospectus.

     All costs,  expenses and fees in connection  with the  registration  of the
Offered Securities will be borne by the Company.  Commissions and discounts,  if
any,  attributable  to the sales of the Offered  Securities will be borne by the
Selling Securityholders.  The Selling Securityholders may agree to indemnify any
broker-dealer or agent that participates in transactions  involving sales of the
Offered Securities against certain  liabilities,  including  liabilities arising
under the Securities Act.

<PAGE>

     In  order  to  comply  with  the  securities  laws of  certain  states,  if
applicable,  the  securities  will be sold in such  jurisdictions  only  through
registered or licensed  brokers or dealers.  In addition,  in certain states the
securities  may not be sold unless they have been  registered  or qualified  for
sale  in  the  applicable  state  or  an  exemption  from  the  registration  or
qualification  requirement  is available and is complied with by the Company and
the Selling Securityholders.

     Under applicable  rules and regulations  under the Exchange Act, any person
engaged in the  distribution  of the Offered  Securities may not  simultaneously
engage in  market-making  activities with respect to the Company's  Common Stock
for a period  of up to five  business  days  prior to the  commencement  of such
distribution.  In addition,  and without  limiting the  foregoing,  each Selling
Securityholder will be subject to applicable  provisions of the Exchange Act and
the rules and regulations thereunder, including without limitation, Regulation M
and Rule 10b-7, which provisions may limit the timing of the purchases and sales
of the Company's securities by the Selling Securityholders.
