Passengers can pay in two to four instalments
Jazeera Airways, a Kuwaiti low-cost carrier, has introduced an option for passengers to pay for their flights in instalments.
Called “Buy Now, Pay Later” (BNPL), the offer allows passengers to split the cost of their flights into two to four instalments, instead of paying the full fare upfront.
Passengers complete the process directly on the Jazeera Airways website or mobile app, with instant eligibility checks at checkout and no separate financing steps required.
Instalments are typically interest-free, if payments are made on time. Miss a payment, and charges kick in.
The new option is available through a partnership with a local fintech firm Deema.
While passengers repay Deema in the agreed instalments, Jazeera Airways receives the full booking amount upfront, ensuring operational liquidity for the carrier.
Jazeera Airways said the ’fly now, pay later’ option is among several digital initiatives it plans to enhance the passenger experience across its expanding network.
The launch follows the carrier’s strongest financial year on record, driven by sustained passenger growth, with more than five million passengers in 2025.
For the fourth year in a row, Jazeera Airways had as the most flights of any airline at Kuwait International Airport.
