Balance over time

What your scenarios reveal

Weekend getaway ($2k-$4k)

A short domestic break — flights, a couple of nights accommodation, and spending money. A $3,000 loan over 1 year at 9% costs about $262/month with around $140 in total interest.

Domestic holiday ($5k-$8k)

A week-long trip within Australia — think Queensland coast, Tasmania, or the Red Centre. A $6,000 loan over 2 years at 9% means repayments around $274/month.

Overseas trip ($10k-$15k)

An international holiday covering flights, accommodation, tours, and spending money. A $12,000 loan over 2 years at 9% works out to about $548/month.

Family holiday ($8k-$20k)

Travelling with kids adds extra flights, larger rooms, and activity costs. Try adjusting the loan amount to match your family size and destination, then compare 2-year vs 3-year terms to find affordable repayments.

What lenders look at

Your income and expenses

Lenders assess your ability to service the loan based on your income, existing debts, and living expenses. They want to see that repayments are affordable for you.

Your credit history

Your credit score and repayment history influence the rate you are offered. A stronger credit history generally means access to more competitive rates.

Loan purpose

Holiday loans are standard unsecured personal loans. Most lenders accept travel and holiday expenses as a valid loan purpose without requiring specific documentation.

Employment stability

Lenders prefer applicants with stable employment. Most look for at least 3-6 months in your current role, though some lenders are flexible for contractors and self-employed borrowers.
