Doug mentioned that Travala might accept Monero, but after visiting site, it appears that XMR is NOT on the list of eligible payments on the flight search page. I appears there may be XMR acceptance for Hotel, but I was looking for one travel agent that could handle multiple hotels, in multiple destination trip for flights, rental cars, hotels. I'm interested in anyone who finds one that does.

At the payment step you'll have a drop down menu that allows you to select XMR, however ...

Ever since the site came into existence I routinely include it in my price comparisons.

Flights at Travala usually come with a hefty premium compared to the best rates I can get elsewhere. So far I've seen minimums of +5% and maximums of +10%.

Reading into their loyalty program, it appears that this is what they need to offer in order to then market their discounts for holders of their tokens and/or NFT's.

I wonder how often such services are being silently discarded by potential customers, while they have to pay to add expensive marketing features ... and they laugh at "those crypto-nuts" for overpaying.

Another site for travel where accepting crypto is a mere way of gutting the client would be Destinia.it.

I'd also like to see people be a tad more responsible when pointing others to services that should help us to live off crypto.
