Emirates has introduced an Equated Monthly Instalment (EMI) payment option for customers in India, enabling them to spread the cost of flight bookings over flexible monthly repayment plans.
The new facility helps customers to book flights to nearly 140 destinations across the Emirates global network and spread the cost of their tickets over monthly installments instead of making a full upfront payment on the airline’s website.
Under the program, eligible customers can choose repayment tenures ranging from three to 36 months while booking through the official website using participating bank credit cards.
The EMI payment option is available to customers of 12 partner banks in India, including AXIS Bank, Bank of Baroda, HDFC Bank, HSBC Bank, ICICI Bank, IDBI Bank, IndusInd Bank, Kotak Mahindra Bank, RBL Bank, Standard Chartered Bank, State Bank of India, and Yes Bank.
Mohammad Sarhan, Emirates’ Vice President for India and Nepal, said that the initiative is designed to provide customers with greater flexibility and convenience when planning their travel.
“We are delighted to offer flexible payment solutions to our valued customers in India and enable more travelers to enjoy worldwide travel through convenient payment options,” he added.
Sarhan emphasized that the initiative allows customers to choose a payment plan that best suits their financial needs while booking flights through participating banking partners.
Mohammad Sarhan remarked that the EMI option would enable travelers to plan long-awaited holidays or enhance their travel experience by spreading payments into manageable monthly installments that fit their budgets.
The introduction of the EMI payment option forms part of Emirates’ efforts to enhance the customer booking experience and make international travel more accessible for passengers.
