Yes, it's important to fully pay for your booking before your departure date. We can only release the ticket once it’s fully paid, ensuring you can travel without any debt.

Why You Need To Complete Payment Before Departure

It is essential to fully pay your booking before your departure date. As a lay-by service, Pay Later Travel requires flight tickets be paid off in full prior to departure. This is a fundamental aspect of the lay-by process, where you receive your goods (in this case, flight tickets) only after completing the payment.

Why Lay-by? Encouraging Responsible Spending

We've chosen the lay-by model at Pay Later Travel because it fosters responsible spending habits. Using our service means you can embark on your journey with complete peace of mind, free from the worries of travel debt. Enjoy your holiday to the fullest, without the dread of unexpected costs upon your return.

Please Note:

  • Flight Bookings: While you will only receive your flight tickets after completing your payment plan, rest assured that we secure and hold your flight booking after you pay the initial deposit.

Payment Plans

We understand that things can change and we are here to help however we can. If you are experiencing hardship, or miss a payment we may be able to adjust your plan for you, please follow our FAQ for payment extensions. Please be advised that if you miss multiple payments, and we do not hear from you to rearrange your payment plan, we may void your ticket and cancel your journey in line with our Terms & Conditions
