If it's a 2015 MacBook Air, there should be a Thunderbolt 2 port built in. It can connect to Thunderbolt 3 using an adapter. You would also need a Thunderbolt 2 cable. Original Thunderbolt can connect just fine since it uses the same mini-DisplayPort connection.


Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) to Thunderbolt 2 Adapter - Apple
As a bidirectional adapter, it can also connect new Thunderbolt 3 devices to a Mac with a Thunderbolt or Thunderbolt 2 port and macOS Sierra or later.
