Travel now, pay later with Flight Centre travel loans

Flight Centre has teamed up with FlexiGroup Limited to further offer travellers interest-free finance to book their travel purchases through the brands Flight Centre, Travel Associates, Cruiseabout, Student Flights, and Escape Travel.

After a competitive and extensive tender process, Flexigroup came up with the win, offering qualifying Flight Centre customers access to interest-free finances through their wholly owned subsidiary, Lombard Finance Pty Limited.

Flight Centre Australia chief financial officer Mike Snyman said the launch of this new offer comes from consumer demand and commitment to provide customers across all brands the “best possible travel experience and payment flexibility”.

Flexigroup CEO Symon Brewis-Weston added he was delighted to partner with Flight Centre to offer the “truly unique and beneficial payment option.”

FlexiGroup is committing an initial $3 million this year in order to get the arrangement started, with the partnership with Flight Centre providing a national distribution platform for the product.

Escape Holidays has had the option for interest free holiday finance since July last year.

“Purchase your dream holiday today and make easy interest free repayments over a 12 month period on packages over $999. This is the perfect opportunity for those looking for a little extra flexibility and financial freedom when it comes time to book your next holiday,” the website states.

The flexibility offers the traveller to lock in the best deal at the best price at the exact moment it pops up, book well ahead of time and pay off the holiday month by month as it draws closer, or enjoy the benefit of booking at the last minute without suddenly leaving a gaping hole your bank balance.
