That is a (relatively) new thing, however- at least in the US. Prior to the September 11th security reforms there no ID checks against tickets, and you could resell them. This was so commonplace that one US airline (People's Express) back in the 1980's did all their tickets paid in cash after you boarded. They had no idea who would be on a flight at all until the boarding started!
(You can see this in the spoof movie Airplane II: The Sequel from 1982, where our hero boards the Lunar Shuttle buying a ticket from a scalper.)
So this policy is younger than Google.
