If you don't want to be charged interest, then a short-term plan is your best bet. These often span a few weeks/months and tend to be interest-free if payments are made on time.
If you'd prefer to pay for your Thanksgiving flights over an extended period, we have plenty of long-term plans that span a year or more. These will usually require a small sum of interest.
The Buy Now Pay Later options you see at checkout will depend on your country of residency. If you're living in the United States, you'll see Klarna, Affirm, Afterpay, Zip, and Sezzle.
We advise you to make your flight reservations well in advance.
Booking early, especially for travel during peak seasons, means your flights will be less expensive. It also gives you a higher chance of being seated with your family, even if you don't choose your seats.
Thanksgiving is a major US holiday, and therefore, flights for the week leading up to Thanksgiving will be pricey unless you book to fly on Thanksgiving Day itself. There's less demand for the actual day of Thanksgiving as people don't want to be travelling during the holiday. While spending parts of Thanksgiving at the airport won't be the most fun, it can get you some really cheap tickets!

As early as possible. The lead up to Thanksgiving is a popular time for flights across America. Due to high demand, flights can be significantly more expensive than usual. To get around this, try to book early. Most of the time, the earlier you book, the cheaper your tickets.
If you've made your Thanksgiving treats at home and want to take them with you for your family dinner, it's essential that you know what items you can bring and where.
Items such as baked goods, meats, spices, and candy can all be taken through TSA.
While gravy, wine, maple syrup and other liquids will have to be packed securely in your checked baggage.
