In the age of technology, there's no denying that the PayPal payment system saves a lot of time by allowing you to pay for your purchase in a few seconds. Airlines have long allowed passengers to use this method when booking or purchasing flight tickets.

However, the rules of each company may differ, so it's best to familiarize yourself with them before planning your trip. GO BankingRates has learned more about the list of airlines that support PayPal.

Well-known companies such as American Airlines and Southwest Airlines, as well as British Airways and Lufthansa support the easy payment system. Delta, JetBlue, Jetstar, Virgin Australia, and Ryanair also accept payments via PayPal. Tourists traveling to the Far East on AirAsia and Singapore Airlines can also use digital payment.

In general, more than 50 airlines support PayPal ticket payments, but the terms of use may vary.

Some carriers can only accept payments from customers who live in the United States, while others limit the option to customers who use their mobile app to book tickets.

By the way, before paying for tickets, you should check the fine print and information about additional fees and charges. Some companies stagger additional fees for luggage or unprinted tickets, so the total amount may increase.

However, PayPal remains a convenient and affordable way to pay for your purchases. It protects your data, is easy to use, and is available on many airlines.
