AirBaltic Takes NFTs to the Skies
AirBaltic is a Latvian airline that has quickly become one of the most innovative and impressive companies in the aviation industry. Founded in 1995, the airline has consistently pushed the boundaries of what is possible in the world of air travel, and has consistently ranked among the best in the world for customer satisfaction. They carry over 1 million passengers per year.
AirBaltic has also been at the forefront of technological innovation, and has consistently introduced cutting-edge technologies and services to enhance the travel experience for its customers.
In 2014, airBaltic became the world’s first airline to accept Bitcoin as payment for its flight tickets. airBaltic accepts Bitcoin (BTC), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Ethereum (ETH), Dogecoin (DOGE), 4 USD-pegged stablecoins and many other as a payment for tickets sold on airbaltic.com This was the first step that airBaltic took in order to get into Web3 technologies, later continuing with other crypto-related projects. Now, their innovations span into Web3 with the launch of their Planies NFT collection, mintable with a credit card via Crossmint's NFT checkout.
