Thanks friends and customers for the good feedback!
Since more than a month ago we are offering hotels payable with bitcoins. If you mention bitcointalk after your booking we will refund 5% as a promotional discount.
We are working in the integration with a new flights wholesaler to offer much more low costs airlines and better prices.
Keep in touch!

BTCTrip: We are all Satoshi Nakamoto Dear Bitcoiners, My name is Martin Fernandez, I am BTCTrip’s CEO, the first travel portal for the Bitcoin community. Satoshi Nakamoto has been the most important inspiration for me to step inside the Bitcoin world. I never thought about it in speculative terms, but in terms of freedom and a new social paradigm. I read today that several communication media bother a very modest person called Dorian Nakamoto. He has denied being Satoshi, but media keeps disturbing him. Here, at BTCTrip, we are planning to offer him and his six children a trip to Buenos Aires, and from there to the Argentinian Patagonia. One of the most beautiful places in the world. If any of you contact Dorian, please let him know about BTCTrip’s invitation. I was delighted to read today that Andreas Antonopoulos is fundraising money for Dorian ( http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1ztjmg/andreas_im_fundraising_for_dorian_nakamoto/ ). I met Andreas in Buenos Aires, what an incredible person! CheapAir has made a similar invitation, wich is great. The only inaccurate statement (once again) was to declare "CheapAir.com, the first travel site to accept Bitcoin". This is not true. BTCTrip is the first Bitcoin Comunnity’s travel portal (and we only accept bitcoins). If you want to support us across social networks, we will appreciate your comments in favor to BTCTrip. Ours is a much smaller business and has a much smaller Marketing budget than a megasite. We grow day by day thanks to the Bitcoin Community. From here on, this message is for Satoshi Nakamoto, wherever you are: We thank you for this gift called "Bitcoin" All information should be free. ALL THE BEST, BTCTRIP |

Just a bit of friendly advice... keep the graphics on your front page updated. I just visited to check on a flight but when I see ads for events from earlier this year it makes me wonder if you're still operating and erodes confidence in the brand.
Thank you for the advice! Fixed. We forgot it cause we are so focused redesigning the new home page  |

Insanely Expensive Plane Tickets...
Yes, that's my finding, too. Watching … In the near future, we will integrate our flight search engine with other to show the good prices online. By the moment you can get the Insanely Cheap Tickets by email request. |

Dear Bitcoin Community We are happy to announce that BtcTrip.com has been released! It's the first plane tickets website to accept only Bitcoins as a payment option. We kindly ask you as a community (what we are proud to be part of) to help us out test it beta version and spread a word! We've prepared special discounts for those who help us get traction! We hope many will find us offering Bitcoins only offers a good reason to get started with Bitcoins. Bitcoins, flying gets cheaper! BtcTrip Team Thank you so much, this is great! But I wonder if I have found a bug - nothing happens when I click the "Buy" button after searching for tickets... May be a bug, we are still in beta. What SO and browser are using you? In Google Chrome I needed to double click the buy button. Also as a test I tried to search for tickets from AMS -> JFK -> AMS. Go on September 9, return on September 23. Skyscanner found a flight for 530EUR ( http://www.travel2be.nl/HtmlRedirectT2BNL2/AMS/NYC/1/0/0/09-09-2013/23-09-2013/RT/false/true/d9aZEXNL/TEPyUXlTe0yv2nwn65l2Z760HAh336DbvJRsAwYYYaTCB1QVCOTRruZNJ4p46xAZqiJi99qpeiGV0Nx2mahdvg==/?cmp=d9aZEXNL no idea if this link works for anyone but me) but your site had 570EUR as cheapest. The one via SkyScanner used Air Europa 18:15 AMS – 12:40 JFK 1 tussenstop MAD 24 u. 25 min. (+1) (total travel time, yes, 24 h  ) return: 22:05 JFK – 15:40 AMS 1 tussenstop MAD 11 u. 35 min. (+1) you found: OUTBOUND Amsterdam, AMS Nueva York, JFK Monday 9 september, 2013 Depart: 16:20 Arrive: 22:05 11h 45m 1 Stop British Airways British Airways INBOUND Nueva York, JFK Amsterdam, AMS Monday 23 september, 2013 Depart: 19:45 Arrive: 18:10 16h 25m 1 Stop British Airways British Airways Not interested in this flight but I just thought "let's check it out". Thank for you comment vlees. You are right, still we don't can show the best prices for all the airlines. We are working in the integration with other flight search engines to the actual one. By the way, we can get manually that flight ticket cheaper by a email request. Regards, BtcTrip Team |

price is 2x more than the normal price offered at the original sites  hasher87, I answered your message. We are 74 usd cheaper than the link you sent us. Regards BtcTrip Team actually its the other way around, if you convert the USD from your sites to the Singapore Dollar value that was shown on that site. so basically your site is about US$40 expensive? actually i wouldn't mind that, but as long as you take cheapest flight value from the original site (USD260.31) rather than the premium prices offered (USD435), its all good Your are right, I missed the currency conversion. I have found your cheapest price you want, we can sell it for USD240. Regards, BtcTrip Team |

Indeed. Every flight I check seems to quote me exactly twice the price of what you get from the actual airline.
Send us the cheaper link and we will give you a better price. Regards, BtcTrip Team |

Wow he wasn't joking, these really are the cheapest flights I've ever seen. Total price USD 1.183 That's like, a little over 0.01 BTC. Wait?  How's that possible? Possible via the magic of typos. I'm sure it's supposed to say BTC 1.183. You are right, it is an internationalization bug. Now, all the prices are expressed in usd except the one of the checkout form that detail the total price in usd and btc. The prices in dollars use comma as decimal separator and the price in bitcoins use the dot as decimal separator. We are working on fixing it. Thank you! |

Dear Bitcoin Community
I'm Martin Fernandez, the BtcTrip.com CEO. As I'm writing this, I'm based in LA and on my way to NYC.
Our website has been launched in a very hostile environment of the international policies trying to hold back Bitcoin development. If you are really committed to Bitcoin and freedom, we are looking for your support and attention.
Btctrip.com is a discounted airfares website which eliminates all third parties and their fees. Also thanks to automation, our staff expenses are significantly lower. Being BTC traders ourselves allows us to transfer margin into discounts for you.
Our mission is not only to sell plane tickets. We are embracing the Bitcoin community more than anything else by creating a business which caters to a new millenium client. Our investors, to whom we are very grateful for their support are well known figures from within startup community.
As we do really care about your trust and our credibility, you can buy all the tickets using escrow service.
Kind regards

In order to help to the Bitcoin mainstream adoption, we are offering the cheapest airlines tickets.
If you find it cheaper somewhere else, we'll beat any offer!
