Last-minute flights are usually booked right before their departure date/time. Typically, these bookings are made only a few days or weeks before the scheduled takeoff date, with individuals who need urgent travel or business travellers being the usual customers. Although last-minute flights can present more cost-effective choices, as airlines try to fill unoccupied seats, it's essential to recognise that not every last-minute flight ensures lower prices.
The option to pay later for your last-minute flights with Tamara is available here at Alternative Airlines. Keep reading to find out more.
If you're booking last-minute flights at Alternative Airlines, please note that, although the majority of our e-tickets are sent within 2 hours after booking, it may take up to 24 hours in some circumstances for you to receive your e-ticket.
If you need to urgently book a last-minute flight but are not financially prepared to cover the cost of your flight at the time of booking, you can opt for Tamara, a Buy Now Pay Later payment method that we currently offer at checkout to residents of Saudi Arabia.
We understand that urgent travel plans can cause financial stress, especially when you're unable to pay the full cost of your ticket days before you need to travel. With Tamara, you can split the cost of your last-minute flights into 2, 3 or 4 monthly instalments!
It's interest-free, Shariah-compliant, and comes without hidden fees as long as payments are made on time.

Flexibility allows you to take advantage of any sudden price drops or discounted offers that may arise for specific dates. Consider flying on weekdays or during off-peak seasons for potentially lower fares.
