that's great, after being legalized by their government bitcoin is now being used probably for various services in their country I guess this things was already expected by most people from japan . since japan is one of the most developed country, I hope that this will be good way to convince more nations and their government to do the same thing as japan did so that we can fully consider bitcoin to be an international currency as we can really use it anywhere across the globe .
The thing is that it seems to me that Japan will make a breakthrough in the field of cryptography and will be a very huge example for other countries. The fact is that there are special opportunities for which some companies of the world are already directed in any field. Whether there is medicine or other sector of people's service.

According to this article, Japanese Budget Airlines are going to accept bitcoins this year. They declared that later this year we can now enjoy flights without bringing our wallets but our bitcoins in our smartphones.

Well its a good news for peole who have Bitcoin to bring in Japan that also don't want to convert anymore money to Yen. But it made me raise a doubt on one of your statement in which you say that by accepting Bitcoin it will increase the tourism of the place? So you are basically saying that if they accepted Bitcoin, then instantly tourist will now start going to visit Japan. I disagree with you about that because a tourist does not go to a place because of the money but because of the place they will visit.

Japan trading platform also has accepted bitcoins for trading on their website. I'm so happy to see Japan completely supporting bitcoins and helping this currency flourish. Singapore stores too have started accepting bitcoin payments. Now hope India too follows the same and other Asian countries too. Just if Amazon or Google starts accepting bitcoin payments, the currency price and acceptance would grow and it would be easy to trade without any difficulties.
Wow! What a news. Japan one of the the most advanced technologies in the world also leading this kind of adoption. Other countries and business establishments should follow soon.
If Bitcoin really gets accepted for Flight booking, it will give a great push to its trust, which will effect the value.
Hope to see some countries and other airline companies accepting Bitcoins as well, if and after Japan Airlines start the process. Really looking forward to that day

This is a good news for Bitcoin Community knowing that Japan is always leading when it comes to technology. Actually different country are starting to adopt BTC already despite all the FUD news popping just to bring down bitcoin. Maybe they've come to realize that bitcoin has really the potential to become the new currency in the near future.
I think japan is the responsible who created the bitcoin correct me if i'm mistaken back to the topic the japan is one of a successful country and have a good economy that's why it is not surprising that they accept bitcoin as a form of payment to their country and i think it is not just airlines that they will accept bitcoin but many things that will soon they will accept bitcoin as a payment
The good news that more and more companies are receiving payments with BTC, the clearer the future of BTC gets brighter. BTC will be a reliable currency in the future. All investors have started to look to invest with BTC. It is time for the digital era to take place.

wow! what a great news to the bitcoin community. it just goes to show that bitcoin is getting more and more popular and been extremely embraced by the japanese people. this will also make people and bitcoin users who travels a lot to be at ease and have the convince they all been wanting. it will be hassle-free to them.
Out of curiosity, how about the confirmation which needs to arrive? Is it just accepting zero-confirmation just like some bitcoin payment gateway do?. The average confirmation needs about 15 minutes to arrive and probably some people still have some time to wait for it until the plane's landing, but, how if the fee is just not enough and the transaction get stuck?.
3 practical issues i see
1. budget airlines = people not wanting to spend too much = why would they agree to a $1+ fee and wait ~10minutes-48 hours
2. many credit cards these days (if you avoid the normal domestic (country locked) ones do not charge much
2. many credit cards these days (if you avoid the normal domestic (country locked) ones do not take ~10mins-48 hours to accept payment. its just swipe and go in seconds
segwit will not fix spam
segwit will not fix confirm delays
locking funds into an LN is like locking funds into a contract with a second party (research multisig) you might aswell just use credit cards, bcause of all the cludgy crap core have done to push people into thinking LN is the utopian savour by removing all the benefits bitcoins mainnet had over fiat/cards
This is why a more robust blockchain technology like NEM's Mijin will take bitcoin's place eventually. The fact that Japan tends to lead technological innovation is why NEM is more popular there while people here in the US hype segwit.

Good news , now the bitcoin will be more popular on japan
I guess bitcoin is totally popular in japan already that why they have this move
, actually japan is one of the most advance countries in terms of technologies, that is why no wonder they use bitcoin for this kind of transaction and it help more to promote bitcoin to those who pass through airplanes.I think soon we will see bitcoins in every industry.
As far as I know there are already some websites where you can buy airtickets with Bitcoins. Japan has seriously entered into Bitcoin story with regulations and all that so increased acceptance of Bitcoins in everyday life seams like logical step in full integration of Bitcoin into their system.

Wow this is a great news, I haven't seen this article yet at cointelegraph. Japan is very serious with bitcoin, I guess the factor that the creator of bitcoin is a japanese name. They are now trying to recognize it this way and this is a good adoption, this means that Japanese people or those people that will use JBA will use bitcoin that can make the demand higher.
Lol I can see the headline already "terrorists use controversial currency to purchase plane tickets." We all know how stupid the people reading the mainstream news are, so this will be spun into a negative I'm sure.
The thing that worries me about vendors accepting Bitcoin is that they are likely to immediately transfer it to fiat at market value, therefore pushing the price down and creating volatility. This volatility then makes it less likely for more vendors to adopt Bitcoin. It also makes those vendors that already did, less likely to continue accepting it. Bitcoin has a volatility problem which is, ironically, limiting its growth.
That's very interesting news since only few companies or establishments are accepting bitcoin as way of payment. Japan really treat bitcoin as a currency. Hope to see a many countries do the same. No wonder Japan will be the biggest bitcoin user in the world. Japan will take place of China because of massive adoption of Japan.
Japan has legalized and regulated Bitcoin. So most of the Bitcoin-related firms, such as exchanges and gambling sites will move their operations to Japan. That nation will gain, in terms of increased tax revenue and new job creation. Unfortunately, the United States had a good chance to do all these, but they got too arrogant.
Japan maybe more realistic about bitcoin adoption, if it's always growing and bring many advantages for citizens and its proven nowadays. Bitcoin has its own place in business development, an Airline accept bitcoin just another way of payment method, whether it still has some practical issues regarding confirmation time.
USA should regulated and legalized bitcoin as currency but they choose not to for now, maybe they will change it someday.

Japan has already declared bitcoin to be a legal currency and so we shall see many big companies and multinationals adopts bitcoins in near future. Since many of the companies in japan are multi-national, this means bitcoin will be adopted by such companies worldwide making it a real big booster for bitcoin itself.
