MakeMyTrip launches industry-first part payment option for international flights, ET TravelWorld

`MakeMyTrip, India’s leading online travel company, has unveiled an innovative Part Payment Option for international flight bookings, setting a new standard in travel convenience. This pioneering feature allows travellers to secure their flight booking by paying only 10–40 per cent of the total fare upfront, with the percentage varying based on factors such as the airline, travel sector, and advance purchase window.

The remaining balance can be paid either before the travel date or within 45 days of the booking, with no additional charges. This feature is designed to alleviate a common challenge faced by many travellers, particularly larger families or groups, who struggle with the burden of paying the full ticket amount upfront for international flights. Once the full payment is made, users can also modify their bookings according to the fare rules.
