Pink flamingos are a beloved, kitschy symbol of Airstream culture, representing fun, relaxation, and a touch of ironic humor on the road. Originating from 1950s Americana, these plastic lawn ornaments signify a welcoming, vibrant community, with travelers often “flamingoing” (gifting) neighbors to show appreciation or make new friends.
