Understanding Layaway Flights
Airfares prices are constantly increasing as airlines grapple with tighter capacity and increasing demand, yet Slice Pay’s layaway option with Alternative Airlines lets traveler's lock in today’s price with just a small deposit and pay the rest in interest-free slices before take-off.
What are layaway flights with Slice Pay?
Layaway flights let you secure your flights today, and pay the rest off gradually overtime. Without the chance of going into debt. With Slice Pay, you can secure your flight by paying a small initial deposit, then pay the rest in interest-free instalments before your departure. There’s no credit issued and no debt lingering over you after your trip. There is a one time, non-refundable Hold Price Fee which let’s you lock in your fare. But, you’ll never face interest charges or late payment penalties.
Please note, Slice Pay is only available to residents of the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom.

Why Travelers Choose Slice Pay?
Price Protection
Airfare continues to rise as airlines face tighter capacity and growing demand. In fact, U.S. ticket prices recently surged at their fastest rate in nearly two years, while Canadian fares jumped 6% in 2024 alone. With Slice Pay, you can lock in today’s price and protect yourself from future fare hikes.
No Interest, No Late Fees
Slice Pay keeps things simple. Aside from a one-time Hold Price Fee to reserve your fare, you’ll never pay interest and there are no penalties if you miss an installment. It’s flexible, transparent, and traveler-friendly.
Flexible, Budget-Friendly Installments
Start with just a 10% deposit, then split the rest into up to 26 automatic weekly or bi-weekly payments. Whether you’re planning a solo trip or booking for a big group, it’s a hassle-free way to manage travel costs over time.
Travel Debt Free with No Credit Checks
Because you finish paying before you fly, there is no debt handing over your head. Slice Pay runs no credit checks, so your credit score stays untouched.
Who Is Layaway Ideal For?
Families and groups 👨👩👦
Planning travel for multiple people can be expensive, especially when flights or accommodation are involved. With average bookings exceeding $3,000 for family flights, Slice Pay helps parents lock in low prices months in advance, without the pressure of paying in full upfront. Whether it’s a family reunion, school holiday trip, or a special occasion abroad.
Students and young professionals 🧑🎓
Budget-conscious travellers, especially students and early-career professionals find it easier to make predictable, smaller payments rather than buying flights in one big lump sum. Slice Pay gives them the flexibility to plan trips around study breaks, holidays, or festivals while staying in control of their finances.
Early Planners 🗓️
Flights and accommodation costs often rise sharply as you get closer to departure. Slice Pay is ideal for anyone booking 2–6 months ahead who wants to avoid fare hikes while maintaining flexible cash flow.
Anyone that wants peace of mind ✌️
Whether it’s a solo traveller booking an overseas adventure or a couple planning a honeymoon, Slice Pay supports smart, flexible planning. It removes financial friction at checkout and helps travellers stay committed to their plans without compromising their budget or savings goals.
