Afterpay payment example for a Cathay Pacific flight

One of Cathay Pacific's most popular routes is Los Angeles to Hong Kong, with fares often starting from around $800 USD.*

Let's say you book this flight and choose Afterpay at checkout. You go for Pay in 4, allowing you to spread the cost over four interest-free instalments.

Instead of paying the full $800 upfront, your payment schedule would look like this:

  • At checkout: $200
  • 2 weeks later: $200
  • 4 weeks later: $200
  • 6 weeks later: $200

With Afterpay, you only pay 25% upfront to secure your booking. As long as you make your payments on time, you'll pay 0% interest.
