How does one...

[MohtasaUnique]

Finance a flight ticket? I know it's possible, my mother did it years ago when I went to hawaii with a few friends. I'm going to Reading Festival in Reading UK this summer with jib, but all the websites I find are sketchy and fuck when googling "vacation financing" or "trip financing" or any manner of "flight/travel/ticket" financing


what do?

You mean like a book it now, pay later sort of thing? Because I know Orbitz does that.

I just went through orbitz' website and there was no option to finance or pay later

I've never heard of being able to finance a plane ticket.
I'm from the UK.
Check American Airlines, I'm sure they offer something where you can pay it back in 6 months or something

 

There might be some way you can pay a deposit and then pay the rest later. If not, you could just try and take out an interest free loan?

 

Reading? Boooo.

Got any friends in high places?

It's a sign that you should come along for the party...

Mother worked for airlines so I get to stand-by for free! It only lasts while I'm obtaining a degree from a college though.

Shit sucks when flights are packed but it's worth the money saved!

The only friends I have from the UK are sythe people

GO TO READING FESTIVAL!

Been to every Reading since '08.

Can't say I'm overly impressed by the line up so far but I'm hoping NIN and Eminem will carry the show like Foo Fighters did last year.

 

Where the hell did this thread go wat.

I suggest a personal loan via a credit union, have you looked at those? Far less sketchy than "www.notascamfinanceyourflight.com"

I've had a $10k credit union loan before, and wasn't fucked over, so I might go that way. The credit union that I go through is in hoquiam though, 300 miles away from where I now live, so if I don't make it back to town in time, I'll have to find another option.

I'm going into a travel agency today to see what they suggest
