I can't give you the best answer, but you can get someone to purchase it with their credit card, and pay them BTC. Today I just bought someone a software license via credit card for BTC. I'd be careful with gift cards and other things though, maybe you can buy it through Gyft and such?

You can view the payment methods on the ticket website. But if you have a friend who is a ticket seller, you can transfer BTC to his wallet and can buy tickets. Those are the simplest ways to buy airline tickets with BTC.

AFAIK Gyft accepts Bitcoin

[traderethereum]

I guess it depends on your country
But if you can find travel agents who accept bitcoin, then you can use bitcoin as the payment because there is a difference between one country than the other countries.
I heard that in here, there is a member who can buy a plane ticket with bitcoin but unfortunately, I forget in what thread.

You can check it on aBitSky.com where you could buy plane ticket with bitcoin. Bitcoin is really developig well and it's an advantage that we can buy anything through it. We can travel into places using our earnings here in crypto. I'm sure that time will come where we can purchase everything through it.

Oh no problem that you forget but I guess this info is enough I'll search more on it too

I only bought pizza with BTC and never tried to buy airline tickets with BTC. In my country, they still do not support payment in electronic money and I still have to wait more. Hopefully, transportation services will soon accept payment in electronic money.

Will aBitSky.com also give some discount on purchasing a ticket or not or it charge costly on it?

Well that is a good start, it will expand from there, if you can buy ordinary pizza with BTC, then surely a time will come when other merchants too will gradually start introducing it as payment systems for their goods and services.

Since the adoption rate is still quite low in your country, you can start by creating something too that will create more awareness, when you start something first, you will become the king of all in future, so think of whatever is also high in demand in your country, start it and introduce BTC payment to it, from there, your customers will get awareness and so as other companies will do too.

It is definitely not that simple. Firstly, op needs to find a service that is willing to accept BTC and there are very few services like that currently. It is very difficult to convince companies to provide BTC as an alternate payment option due to the following reasons:

1. Extreme volatility of BTC value
2. Unreliable TX speeds and time(Can change when LN becomes fully functional)
3. Regulations and bans imposed on the crypto market in certain countries
4. Way too complicated to understand and implement when compared to already available options
5. Controversies surrounding Bitcoin scare off a large portion of people

Can we buy a plane ticket from BTC?

Yes you can, there are other payment processors which convert btc to real time fiat value and pushes the payment for Airline reservations. i have heard about wego app.

[BlueStackz]

You can be the first to invent this, it will really make you lots of money, but right now, I don’t know if any of these flights company has integrated such payment processor into their system but it will really not be a bad idea if they do so.

The only thing I think it is possible now is to change part of your BTC to fiat and use it to pay for your plane ticket, but I still have to do further research if there is any company yet that has introduced such thing and I doubt if they will do that now, even if they are private organizations, they are still being regulated and might not want to use it yet since BTC is yet to be legalized, but it will be more profitable for them to do so.

[Ultimist]

I read that in some countries this can be done. But I don't remember exactly where. I also know that you can buy a movie ticket for bitcoin.

It is good we have a solution already, early adopters of these payment processor will really enjoy it in future, most merchant are all adopting Bitcoin has payment system on their business site. I have seen couple of them and logo of BTC along with MasterCard on the site.

I am sure that very soon, the airlines will directly introduce the payment systems themselves once they see how reliable and profitable it could be.  I am glad so many of these are gradually springing up which will make the awareness of Bitcoin very easy and cut across the entire globe in due time, within the next 5 years, I am sure the number of current merchants will increase by 1000%

In fact, airlines that accept payment in cryptocurrency quite a lot. Some airlines leave this area of business,but others come in their place.Look here: https://ihodl.com/lifestyle/2018-08-07/come-fly-bitcoin/

AFAIK Gyft accepts Bitcoin

If Gyft accepts bitcoin but it only supports American Airlines then it's a no no for other countries. I think it depends on your homeland. But in the state of my country, I can't see any possibility on buying ticket with BTC.

Can we buy a plane ticket from BTC?

This is possible in our country although not a direct payment of bitcoin right directly at Airlines payment's page.

Don't know if it will be helpful to you since it's a service of a local exchange.


The best thing to do is the usual way, convert your fiat to BTC and purchased a ticket.

An obvious way indeed.
