The UI/UX is amazing in some intangible way that is hard to describe.
The details and price breakdown is EXTREMELY clear.
It's COMPETITIVE in price with Expedia and Skyscanner which were previously my go-to. Offering similar flights as the ones I found there.

I just had a quick look. As you mentioned it is a very good site and we can definitely use it.
Only one thing is missing, I suppose.
Are they not accepting lightening payments?

reply

No sarcasm. You want to use lightning for a $4000 tx?

reply

No, but for smaller amounts. The ticket prices for some destinations is just a few bucks.
There's a concern, if it takes longer due to network congestion. Price drops or rises more than 10%, what would happen in that case?

reply

Once you get to that page (where payment is pending) it's locked in, there's no more fluctuation.

I get your point, some people would want to pay a $100 flight with lightning. Mine currently just happens to be $4k.

To answer your question, they use BTCPay server, but no I don't believe lightning is enabled. I think on their end it eliminates their end to maintain inbound liquidity though... They'd need some fat channels

Got it thanks. Overall it's a platform to add in my list where I can pay in Bitcoin .

Thanks, will check it out now, so far I’ve only used Travala

Isn't this a way to dox yourself?

reply

It could be. Depends on what UTXOs your using. It's strictly better than Visa though imo... But I understand where you're coming from. It's one less party who knows what you're doing.
In case A: you use visa and visa and the airline and cheapair know where you flew
In case B: you use bitcoin and cheapair knows some info. But only the UTXOs you share are doxxed and if you coinjoin with someone else it mitigates it somewhat...

Or use Sparrow wallets & Samourai wallets inbuilt "self" coinjoin where you use twice the inputs to "pretend" to be doing a coinjoin with someone else. But it's really yourself.

Yes, cheapair is good.
Here you have more, inclusive one that is more private (if you can afford it):

Not all of us bought bitcoins at $20 ;)
My stack isn't big enough for a private jet yet haha. I need to go from China to SF to Florida to Indonesia back to China. With my family in tow. 🥴 Pricey

That one is only for extreme cases. When you want to disappear :)
