Are you a lucky owner of Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies? Or maybe you are still wondering if the new digital money is worth to invest in?
If you are a fan of exploring the world then you should definitely know how to turn your digital assets into rest and vacation. As the popularity of cryptocurrencies is growing every day, the travel companies realised that it is profitable to accept crypto payments. Of course, the debit cards connected to cryptocurrency portfolios do exist. However, to avoid extra fees for transactions, it is crucial to know the companies, which accept the cryptocurrency payments directly.
Firstly, it is possible to book the crypto-travel via an online travel agency called Travala. It works similarly to Booking, but accepts payments with crypto.
It is also possible to pay for a flight ticket with Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. The Latvian airline Air Baltic was the first one to accept payments with Bitcoin in 2014. Now, it accepts also Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum, Dogecoin and four USD-pegged stablecoins.
Many exclusive hotels like The Pavilions Hotels & Resorts, Sri Panwa Phuket, S Hotels & Resorts, The Chedi Andermatt and The Kessler Collection also accept cryptocurrency bookings. For instance to book a room in The Pavilions all the future guest needs to do is email the hotel reservation team directly and they will send a payment link. Then guests can complete the payment details from their wallets via QR code or wallet number. The hotel accepts payments with 37 different cryptocurrencies.
Another interesting travel location is the Bitcoin Beach. It is the first sustainable Bitcoin economic ecosystem located on the coast of El Salvador. It helps small local businesses, which would never qualify to accept credit card payments. Travellers can take surfing classes there, eat local cuisine and pay for everything with Bitcoin.
