Interesting! From the http://www.fairair.com web site:

In partnership with airlines, FairAir is building the world's only exchange for transferable airline tickets. Available exclusively at FairAir.com, these e-tickets will change the rules of airline travel. Now there are two types of airline tickets. The transferable ticket. And everything else.

Buy your ticket at FairAir, and you can:

Sell it if your plans change
Give it to a friend
Or, use it like a normal ticket
They list 36 airports, all in the US, on their beta site page.

This has some interesting implications....
