Title: Emirates Airline Adding Crypto Payments With Crypto.com Partnership

Link: https://news.slashdot.org/story/25/07/10/2142...

Dubai-based airline Emirates is partnering with Crypto.com to integrate
Bitcoin payments into the airliner's payment systems and add NFT collectibles
on the company's websites for trading. The airline is also hiring staff to
support its blockchain, crypto, and metaverse ambitions, positioning itself
at the forefront of digital transformation in aviation. "NFTs and metaverse
are two different applications and approaches," explained Emirates Chief
Operating Officer Adel Ahmed Al-Redha, adding that the airline will also seek
to use the blockchain in tracing records of aircraft. "With the metaverse,
you will be able to transform your whole processes -- whether it is in
operation, training, sales on the website, or complete experience -- into a
metaverse type application, but more importantly making it interactive." The
official integration of crypto payments is expected to take place next year,
according to the announcement.
