The most be something I don’t understand. Why would I buy flight tickets from a third party? Is there a market for this?

The idea is to allow efficient resale of airline seats (and for the airline to take a cut of that secondary market). Also proves to buyers that their flight is nor overbooked.

If you book through a travel agency or website, you are already buying 3rd party

NFTs would prevent 3rd parties from overselling flights (this is a big problem actually and is borderline fraud)
