It’s now being reported on Reddit that CheapAir.com, the first online travel agency to accept Bitcoin, has now integrated both Litecoin and Dogecoin into its payment system.

CEO Jeff Klee says, “if our customers have a need, we’ll go to great lengths to come up with a solution.” This time, that solution apparently was expanding their accepted digital currency payment methods to include two additional cryptocurrencies.

The company announced recently that they had already processed over $1.5 million in Bitcoin transactions since first implementing the option in November 2013.

CheapAir.com, a veteran of online travel booking, first hit the Internet back in 2000. Long before, starting in 1989, CheapAir.com was known as 1-800-Cheap-Air. Using new technology to make travel easier and less expensive has long been a hallmark of the company. Adopting cryptocurrency before the rest of the industry seems to be part of a larger pattern of innovation for the company.

Launched in January of 2009, Bitcoin is the world’s “first decentralized digital currency,” according to bitcoin.org. Today, bitcoins are accepted by a number of merchants including Overstock.com, Dish Network, and TigerDirect.

Bad news...how can you actually take a decently sized company like this seriously if they accept Dogecoin? The entire coin is a meme joke coin, people, how can you not realize this? Litecoin is also slowly becoming dead too (I say that based on the fact I have seen no major news about LTC recently).
