We’re all about putting you in control and giving you the freedom to travel your way. Compare flights from over 600 airlines, add the extras you need, and choose how to pay, upfront or over time, all in one simple place.

Yes. At Alternative Airlines, we offer over 40 ways to pay, including flexible pay-later options that let you split the cost or book now and pay the rest later.

Alternative Airlines works with leading global providers like Affirm, Afterpay, Klarna, Tamara, Atome and many more. This means you can choose a payment plan that works for your budget, whether that's splitting your flight cost into 3-4 weekly instalments or paying a small deposit now and the rest before departure.

Most pay-later options don't require a hard credit check, and many come with zero interest when you pay on time. We've built the world's most flexible flight booking experience so you can book your trip today without paying everything up front
