Air New Zealand to explore blockchain with Swiss travel platform Winding Tree

Air New Zealand is teaming up with Swiss travel start-up Winding Tree to explore applications based on blockchain technology that could help the national carrier improve the efficiency and security of services such as booking and baggage tracking.

Blockchain, a digital ledger of transactions that has underpinned the virtual currency Bitcoin, has permeated every aspect of the business and financial landscape.

Almost all global corporations in the world have some sort of blockchain initiative.

Air New Zealand chief digital officer Avi Golan said the airline is looking at a number of potential blockchain uses such as cargo and baggage tracking, retail, distribution, and loyalty programme opportunities.
