You don't have to pay all at once. In fact, you’ve got a couple of different options to pay in installments. First, you can make monthly payments (over 3, 6, or 12 months) on most reservations through our partnership with Affirm. It’s easy, too—just select “Pay later with Affirm” when completing your vacation purchase.
If you book at least 45 days before your trip, your other option is to split your trip into just two payments. If the cost of your reservation is between $2,000 and $9,999, 50% is due at the time of booking. If the cost of your reservation is over $10,000, 25% is due at the time of booking. If you choose to make two payments, you must make your second payment 30 days before the start of your trip.
