Prospective tourists can purchase tickets directly on the Flybondi website, which can be purchased using fiat currencies.

Also, the passenger can change his name, transfer and even sell the NFT tickets as he pleases.
As Facundo Martin Diaz, director of blockchain at TravelX, points out, the first purchase does not incur any fees, but the platform charges a 2% transaction fee to secondary sales of “NFTickets”, while airlines will receive 2%. additional. % off sale.
The best ticket in the world is 3.0 💛 And it’s ours! 😉✨#flybondi #UltraLowCost #LaLibertadDeVolar https://t.co/lKDjWRDdnm
