This is a gradual step in adoption. Although this will instantly not lead to market bullishness since the company is directly interested in how Bitpay converts the coins to cash. Although, this will encourage other firms to toe the same line and the awareness will become more massive and boom, bigger adoption in time to come. It's a win for Cryptocurrency.

Quite unheard of for me, though if this is one way of making things closer for people to accept bitcoin, then it's fine for as long as they really plan to retain bitcoin for the entirety of their operations. If not and it's just a marketing strategy to lure down people on their firm by riding on the hype of cryptocurrencies, then I don't think they will get a long way down the road and would probably be out of ideas after the hype for bitcoin has died out.

Obviously as others have commented, they haven't heard of this company. And probably they wanted to be known around the globe that's why as part of their marketing ploy, they chooses to accept bitcoin as it's slowly breaking some grounds now. And assuming the trend will go up in the next 5 years, though who's willing to accept now have a big advantage in the future.

As long as there are businesses and corporations that accepts bitcoin with their payment method it would always been a very good news for the community. Don't look at the quick effect of it because it takes time to see the enormous impact of it to the market.

So there must be really lots of people who's eager to use bitcoin as payment for travels for them to accept it. Bitcoin is really going mainstream nowadays. But and also Bitcoin Cash??
It is going on mainstream and the idea of bitcoin being used only for illegal activities is starting to break. About bitcoin cash? don't talk about it, they are just riding the popularity of bitcoin.

That company is not familiar.  But if that news is true I think this is a big advantage of bitcoin because when that news leaks the image of bitcoin because even the big and rich company in a progressive country are already accepting bitcoin. And this will be the bridge to make other merchant to accept bitcoin.

There are billions of companies in the world and it's very much possible that you might not know the existance of a company. CT is a corporate player and works on B2B mode, so as a retail cusotmer we may have not heard about them.

The company indeed started accepting bitcoin payments through collaboration with Bitpay. The below link confirms the authenticity of the news,

Honestly, looking at the company website does not seem to me to be the UK's largest travel company. But it is very important to note that it is a company that provides services to the corporate world. That is, if they are accepting Bitcoins, it means that other companies are willing to use Bitcoins as a means of payments

It's actually great that other industries are starting to integrate blockchain tech and cryptocurrency in their business. As time goes by, we can expect that more and more people and establishments will start adapting cryptocurrency. This might even push or influence other companies or even the government to make a deeper research why cryptocurrency adaptation is increasing.

Never heard about the company and couldn't find much information about it online, but it is always nice to see more companies recognizing Bitcoin as payment. It's important to gain more if such acceptance not only because it is helping to raise awareness about cryptocurrencies, but also because it establishes the status of Bitcoin as money, not some stuff for trading. This, in turn, means that as such it should not be taxed, because it's not a commodity.

This is a piece of great news for those bitcoin users who lived in the UK and want to travel the world. I could say that this is also a good move for that company to accept bitcoin as part of its payment system.

Another great adoption that have happened towards bitcoin, it will be just a matter of time before other merchants and big companies would do the same as this UK company did.

Great news again more and more travel firms are not taping into the potential of the cryptocurrency and adopting bitcoin and other altcoin as mode of payment for travel's, I read about another traveling firm going to be accepting 100% payment using a new token and also bitcoin. It becoming clear that the future of online payment revolves around digital currency.

Never heard of this company since I am not from the UK, but this is great news nevertheless. Companies are slowly and steadily beginning to realize the importance of the cryptocurrency market and blockchain in general which can become the next big thing like the Dot com boom in the past.

The firm has also partnered with BitPay for making crypto payments possible. Andy Hegley, U.K. General Manager at Corporate Traveller said:

“We identified an increasing demand from our clients for the option to pay in bitcoin for business travel bookings made by our travel consultants.
