Klarna payment example for an Aer Lingus flight

To give you a clearer idea of how Klarna works, let’s take an example. Suppose your round-trip Aer Lingus flight costs €300. Here’s how the cost could be split depending on the Klarna plan you’re eligible for:

  • Pay in 3 = 3 monthly payments of €100, interest-free
  • Pay in 4 = 4 monthly payments of €75, interest-free
  • Pay in 30 = Pay the full €300 up to 30 days later
  • Financing option = From €28/month over 12 months (APR varies)

Your exact options depend on your country and Klarna’s eligibility checks.

Does Aer Lingus accept Klarna?

Not directly. Aer Lingus doesn’t offer Klarna as a payment method on its website. However, when you book the same flights through Alternative Airlines, Klarna is available in supported countries.

That means you can still fly with Aer Lingus and pay over time, with full access to Klarna’s instalment and Pay Later options.
