The target market might be people who otherwise would never be able to afford the fare, and therefore consider the discount worth the risk. If you don't have the personal wealth to travel, I can imagine that this kind of opportunity would be very attractive.

People generally agree, for example, that it was a good thing when we banned the practice of selling ones' self into indentured servitude.

Same goes for, for example, selling kidneys.
