Fly Now, Pay Later With PAL Without Credit or Debit Cards

Booking a flight used to mean paying the full amount upfront or using a credit card. But with Philippine Airlines (PAL), you can now book your trip and pay later — even without a card — thanks to their partnership with BillEase.

One of the main perks of having a credit card is that when booking flights, you don’t have to pay for them in full all at once. PAL passengers can now enjoy similar flexibility through BillEase and Fly Fairrly, even without a credit or debit card

One of the main perks of having a credit card is that you don’t need to pay for flights all at once.

It allows you to book flights at your convenience, then pay via instalments — no credit or debit card required.

The airline has partnered with First Digital Finance Corp. (FDFC), which operates the digital credit application, BillEase. It lets you book a flight at your convenience without worrying if you have the required travel funds at the moment.
