Iran Air Plans Blockchain-Based Tickets

Iran Air, the national flag carrier, plans to employ blockchain technology for domestic ticket sales in collaboration with an unnamed Iranian tech partner.
The blockchain-based tickets, known as HomaTick, are being developed to offer flexible tickets whereby passengers can book tickets with no set date or destination. 
"Presently passengers cannot arrange flights for specific dates in the future. Moreover, it is difficult to buy tickets during peak seasons such as the Nowrouz (Persian new year) holidays. HomaTick is designed to address these issues," the airline said in a press release.
