Opposite to 'on board'

Say, you're sitting with your child on a plane to somewhere. The child wants you to buy him something in the duty-free shop on board. You're reluctant to buying just anything there due to a high price, so you say: "Don't worry. I'll buy you the same on earth/on land/ on ground?" What word collocation should be used here?

I'd say "on the ground." Or "when we land" or "at the airport."
