3 Ways to Pay for Your Dream Holiday

To be clear, the best way to fund your dream holiday is in cash, using disposable income. We’ll explain the nuances below, but the important thing to keep in mind is that credit options - such as a personal loan - shouldn’t be used as a way to live beyond your means.

For example, if a splurge trip to Bora Bora wouldn’t be affordable for you, then it’s not a good idea to take out a significant loan to fund it.

A better way to use personal loan can be to spread out the cost of a holiday. So, if you’re booking in your Christmas holiday and don’t have the money saved up yet, spreading that cost over a longer period can make sense.

1.     Cash or Disposable Income

Paying for a holiday with cash or disposable income will almost always be the best option for funding a holiday. The big advantage is that - unlike with personal loans - you won’t have to make repayments, which carry interest.

However, one drawback to this is that due to our economic realities and social responsibilities, stashing cash somewhere isn’t always guaranteed to save up.

There’s always one need to cater for, leaving your holiday plans go in circles and never getting executed year on year.

2.     Money from Family and Friends

Family and friends are another viable option for funding your dream holiday. This is also great since your family and friends might request for very little or no interests on the loan.

The drawback however is that this channel is highly unreliable since your friends and family members also have their own bills to settle.

Research has also confirmed that borrowing money from family and friends has shown to have severe consequences on relationships especially when there is any glitch in repayment. Do you really want to expose your relationship to that level of risk?

Think about it before you proceed with asking family and friends for money.

3.     Personal Loan

A personal loan is a really straightforward way to fund anything, including a holiday. You borrow an amount, which you receive in your account as a lump sum, and make monthly repayments (usually via direct debit straight from your bank account) until the balance is repaid.

A holiday is a relatively common reason for a personal loan. On the plus side, a personal loan is a simple, easy to understand way to borrow money to pay for a trip.

However, with a personal loan, you’ll pay interest - if you have a very good credit history, this can be low.

A Page personal loan can be concluded in a day and the lump money will be paid into your account to be used to clear your travel bills.
