Under what conditions can a firm sell the same product at different prices?

If the firm is able to identify the prices that each customer is willing to pay for their product, and if the company is able to charge different customers different prices. This practice is called price discrimination. Examples include museums that ask for a student card to offer students a discount; Airline websites that charge different prices to different customers based on the customers' cookies.
