Buying Flights on Finance
Here at Alternative Airlines, you can search for flights with any airline and then select one of our financing options at checkout to finance your flight tickets.
Choosing the right payment plan for your flights
At Alternative Airlines, you can choose long-term financing plans that help you manage the cost of your flights even more easily. You'll get more time to pay for your tickets and it's a great idea if you're booking expensive flights or can't afford to pay for the full cost of your ticket upfront.
We offer financing plans from various Buy Now Pay Later platforms that let you pay monthly for your flight tickets over a 3-36-month period.
3-6 months plans
Paying monthly for your flights over a 3-6 month period is perfect if you're having to book a last-minute flight and don't have sufficient funds ready at the time of booking, or if you just don't want to worry about the full cost of your ticket and would rather split it up into manageable payments.

12-18 months
If 3-6 months isn't enough time for you to make payments for your flights, you can opt for longer repayment periods lasting up to 12 or 18 months. At Alternative Airlines, you can spread the cost of your flights over 12 or 18 months using Klarna (US only) or Affirm (US only). Please note that the longer your repayment period is, the more interest you may have to pay.
24-36 months
With a finance plan that lasts up to 2-3 years, you can make that expensive trip of a lifetime possible without feeling any financial burden. Paying for your flights over a 24-36-month period is a great way to manage the cost of your tickets when you don't have the required finances at the time of booking.
However, the longer your repayment period is, the more interest you may have to pay, therefore this option may be a more expensive method in the long run.
At Alternative Airlines, you can pay monthly for your flights over a 24-36 month repayment period with Klarna - this is currently only available to customers in the United States.
