Northwest Deal Lets PayPal Gain Altitude in Online Travel Sales
“Alternative payments have penetrated the market for airline tickets with Northwest Airlines Inc.’s decision to accept PayPal on its Web site. The move by the major air carrier, which executes about 1,400 daily departures around the world, makes it the first airline to accept PayPal and gives the San Jose, Calif.-based processor access to the huge online travel market. In 2005, leisure travel sales on the Internet totaled $62.8 billion, or about 37% of all e-commerce purchases, according to Forrester Research. Calling the development ‘exciting,’ Stephanie Tilenius, vice president and general manager for merchant services at PayPal Inc., hints more airlines may follow Northwest’s lead. ‘You’ll see more from us in the future,’ she says.”
