They would claim that it reduces fraud. I've never really understood
what kind of scammer would turn up at the airport having identified
himself sufficiently to satisfy Homeland Security, to use a ticket he'd
bought with a stolen card (and more than that, before the real
cardholder had reported the fraud, at which point the airline would
simply cancel the ticket).


Someone told me that because the cardholder is obtaining the
product/service that it doesn't properly count as Cardholder Not
Present, whereas if it's for a third party it does. Doesn't explain
why some airlines (e.g. all budget ones I've used) don't require it,
though.
