Blockchain to Revolutionize Travel?
Recently in Kyiv I met an awesome company called "Winding Tree" that is disrupting the 7 trillion dollar travel industry using blockchain.
In online travel today, a few companies have a stronghold over the industry, and this raises costs and makes it really hard for innovation in the space. But perhaps Blockchain is the solution to this problem: decentralize the information and allow innovation to flourish.
That's what Winding Tree is doing, a company that is already in partnership with Lufthansa, Austrian, Air New Zealand, Eurowings, Swiss, Brussels Airlines, and Nordic Choice Hotels.
I chatted to them about their plans and about why they believe decentralization in this industry is important.
What do you think? Let me know in the comments!

I'm excited about this one! Maybe it'll be up and running for when we're flying HardFork crew all over the place. Another great vid @skycorridors!
Thanks, Doug!!! When we book our HardFork flights we'll have to do it through innovators who are using the Winding Tree platform :)
That's really cool Naomi, it's an industry that really needs to be shaken up. Have you joined @teamaustralia? Being Australian you would get a lot of support from fellow Aussies.
You should follow @choogirl and contact her via discord to join the group. If you read her Steemit blog she's got all the info on how you join.
Also your post has some weird alpha numeric post title "ml0fpz5a" which will make it harder to find and index in google search (guessing that comes from some kind of external editor). When you first post the article on Steemit it will give you a page URL based on the article title you write. If you check other people's blog posts they have the title of the article in the URL, it's really helpful for Google Search. So if the article is about a company disrupting air travel and you have "x company that disrupts airline travel industry with blockhain" or something like that in your title, then any time anyone on the internet researches articles to do with blockchain and airline travel it will be findable on Google.
Your article title on my Steemit feed reads "Blockhain to Revolutionise Travel?" yet somehow when I click the link the page url has the alpha-numeric instead of your title. It's worth checking out why that happened so it doesn't affect your future articles.
What do you mean "joined"? I am following @teamaustralia if that's what you mean? Is there something else I should do?
Good question re the title: I uploaded to Dtube rather than directly to steemit, so maybe that's the issue?
Thanks for the comments!
Hi Naomi, there's a really specific set of steps.
They are all contained in this post by @choogirl who's the superwoman who vets all the new TeamAustralia recruits.

If you read through it the specific steps are listed at the end of the article just above the comments section. It's really worth doing because then you can add the teamaustralia tags to your posts and all the various TA bots and all the community members will see your posts and you'll get a lot more genuine upvotes from invested Aussies.
The best way to contact @choogirl to send her your intro post is through the PAL (Peace, Abundance, Liberty) Team Australia Discord Channel. It's the go to place for pretty much the whole Australian community on Discord. If you follow all the steps and sign up to Discord you'll be able to DM Choogirl there to drop her your intro link and to request formally joining.
The discord invite is here https://discordapp.com/invite/SYz4Ucm
Let me know if you need any further help. Happy travels, hope your Steemit journey is awesome!
I listened to this edition of your podcast today when I was walking on the elliptical, loved it!
I think you should add more of your YouTube content here. The love song!!! ;)
finally found your dtube channel, its cool to support steemit
dtube has always been buggy for me though :(
