So, first of all:
One key issue is “seat spinning,” where bots initiate the booking process but do not complete payment - by hoarding inventory temporarily, they reduce availability and may create a false perception of scarcity, which can influence pricing algorithms.
Pretty sure any “reputable” flight company is already doing that. I am not sure any consumer can really get clear evidence though. They don’t need bots for this, they just tell their booking portal to lie.
Moving on:
In some cases, bots resell the tickets they secure through “ticket scalping,” pushing genuine customers toward inflated prices or unavailable flights.
Reselling means people book flights via what, eBay? Is there a market for reselling flight tickets? Depending on the country involved, destination and so on these bookings require you to leave a name or even passport details.
I’ve stopped reading after this paragraph. Is this just an AI written article of made up issues?
Yeah, these claims seem very vague. I’d like to see how all that works, with examples.
There’s a reason cloudflare or other services are used to verify you’re a human.
