I have used cheapair.com for all of my flight purchases for years. I live internationally, buy international tickets all the time. No problems with cheapair paying with bitcoins.
I just bought a ticket for my girlfriend here in Thailand on kiwi.com because the only flights available on cheapair were $4k+ while the one I found on kiwi were $1500.
I actually bought the ticket a few weeks ago but when I went to print it out for her visa I saw that they never booked the flight sending her e-mails about verifying my payment.
I booked it again. I had to send them a copy of my passport, then a selfie. Then they e-mailed me with a phone number to call. I called the number and they verified more information, and now I have to wait for a third party service to get back to me to see if I'm ever so lucky to have the transaction go through.
I hate when I go from bitcoin back into the stone age of legacy finance. Everyone needs to just catch up already.

Finally at last the dream of travelling via air transport riding in an airplane is already realized. This was just a dream few years ago and we thought that Japan will have the first airlines who will accept bitcoin. This is just a sign that bitcoin is slowly being mainstream in our economy. Sooner or later we can go to shopping malls using bitcoin as payments.
