Airlines body bids farewell to paper tickets
The global airlines body IATA said on Monday it had placed its last order for paper tickets, clearing the way for air travel to be based entirely on electronic ticketing from June 1, 2008.
The changeover from paper would not only cut airlines' costs by $9 for every traveler but would also mean the industry--criticized by environmentalists for its part in global warming--would save 50,000 mature trees a year, he said. Bisignani did not say whether the $9 in cost savings would or should be passed on to passengers.
