You may be planting imaginary crops or fighting imaginary mafias on Facebook, but did you know you can now buy airline tickets through Facebook? Real airline tickets, not imaginary ones.
On August 12, Delta Air Lines posted an update on their Facebook page that read: "Breaking news! We just launched Delta Ticket Window in Facebook. You can now search, book flights, and share them with friends without ever leaving this page!!" Facebook fans will find the new "Book a Trip" tab on the top of Delta's Facebook page.
Delta's status update received over 300 "likes" and 100 comments. The comments ranged from excitement to some early complaints about the new service. Either way, the Delta Ticket Window has at least gained the attention of many Facebook users.
The possibilities for what companies can do with their Facebook pages are growing by the day. Do you trust Facebook enough to use it for important real-life tasks, such as purchasing airline tickets?
