MakeMyTrip introduces part payment option for international flight bookings- The Week

New Delhi, Jan 8 (PTI) Travel booking platform MakeMyTrip on Wednesday announced it has introduced a part payment option for travellers to get a confirmed booking on international flights by paying between 10 to 40 per cent of the total fare upfront.
     The exact percentage of the upfront payment will be determined by factors such as the airline, travel sector, and the advance purchase window.
     The remaining balance must be paid either before the travel date or within 45 days of booking, whichever comes first, at no additional cost.
     “This industry-first feature addresses a common pain point for travellers, particularly larger families or groups, who may find it challenging to pay the entire ticket amount upfront when booking an international flight.
     Users opting for the part payment option can modify their confirmed bookings after completing the full payment as per fare rules,” MakeMyTrip said in a statement.
