UK-based flight search website Alternative Airlines has added Klarna to its list of payment methods, lining up alongside the llkes of PayPal, Amazon Pay, Apple Pay and Alipay. This includes the Pay Later offering, enabling customers to pay for their travel up to 30 days after purchase.

Alternative Airlines’ Managing Director Sam Argyle comments: “We’ve seen a real change in the way people purchase flights. We know that there is a lot of mental friction surrounding booking travel; where to go, where to book, how to travel are just some examples of things that need to be considered. Together with Klarna we aim to reduce the friction for our customers in the payment space as they from now on will be able to choose when and how they would like to pay for their travel, and thereby create a more enjoyable experience from start.”
