There's plenty of companies that offer layby holidays, with flexible payment plans and the option to pay off your holiday in as much as 12 months. Some also offer an interest-free period, which means that your finances don't have to hold you back from going on that last-minute vacation or scoring a great deal on a trip you find. Of course, like with any loan or credit product, you'll need to make sure you make payments on time to avoid paying interest (if there is an interest-free period) and any additional fees. As always, read what you're getting before you sign on the dotted line!

We share the benefits of booking with each company below along with some discount codes to help you save even more.
