As of 2026, many major travel platforms offer "Buy Now, Pay Later" (BNPL) options to help travelers manage large expenses. Expedia and Priceline have integrated with services like Affirm to offer monthly installments. Trip.com is a leader in this space, often partnering with Atome to provide interest-free 3-part payments in various markets. Alternative Airlines specializes in this by offering over 40 different payment methods, including Klarna, Afterpay, and Zip, allowing you to split flight costs over several weeks or months. Additionally, many airlines like Delta and United offer their own "Fly Now, Pay Later" options through their co-branded credit cards or direct partnerships with financial tech firms. In 2026, even local agencies like SOTC Travel have introduced "No-Cost EMI" (Equated Monthly Installment) plans specifically for the Indian market to make luxury holidays more accessible.
