Qatar Airways has launched a new partnership with Klarna, the Swedish flexible payments provider.
Through Klarna, Qatar Airways customers across 17 European countries will now have the option to pay for their ticket in four ways:
- Pay in full
- Book now, pay in 30 days
- Book now, pay in three interest-free instalments
- Book now, pay in monthly instalments
The partnership with Klarna via WorldPay represents another step in Qatar Airways’ efforts to provide customers with tech-forward, personalised services that offer greater financial freedom when booking.
Qatar Airways’ SVP of Digital Commercial, Christophe Guittard, said:
This partnership reflects our commitment to customer empowerment and experience excellence. By partnering with Klarna, we’re making the Qatar Airways booking journey more convenient—giving our customers greater confidence and at the point of payment.
Klarna payment options will be incorporated in Qatar Airways digital storefronts in the UK, Ireland, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Belgium, Austria, Switzerland, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark, Poland, and the Czech Republic.
Several airlines have already integrated Klarna’s buy now, pay later software, including Cathay Pacific and TAP Air Portugal. Klarna’s Head of Western and Southern Europe, Raji Behal, commented on the Qatar Airways deal:
This partnership makes clear the growing global demand for greater flexibility and control when booking travel. With a single integration, Qatar Airways is now bringing Klarna to millions of travellers across 17 countries—providing a smoother, smarter booking experience that fits the way people prefer to pay today.
