    While inputting passport details at the CheapOair app it just quitted about 4 times and just stopped working 3-4 times! This is not for the first time. You guys have to improve the software. Very poor performance! Plus I have asked how to use my bonus points several times in the past year-no one had responded me. Why should I stay loyal to CheapOair then? I thought I will have some bargain, instead of horrible app and poor customer service.

    I had a good experience with the overall process that was provided. However, I found seat selection very disappointing and strange. There were no side by side seats available on any flights. As a result my wife and I could only select front to back seating, and only by the windows. I find this really strange? I can only imagine that some booking agency prebooked all the seats in hopes they would sell them. I would appreciate an explanation.

    My flight 5351 was scheduled for March 31,17 from Knox, TN to arrive March 31 San Francisco, Ca. Departure time was changed to a later time 11:11 pm April 14. Arriving at our destination on April 15, rather than 14. We were charged extra for this extra day. In addition we will have to get a one day car rental or stay at airport 11-12 hrs, which will also cost us. Very unhappy.

    This is the first time I booked with CheapOair and it was a horrible experience. I booked and paid for my reservation within 24 hours. The reservation and my seats were being changed. I tried to call the customer care to inquire about the changes and was put on hold 20 minutes and then the representative hung up. I called back again waited for 40 minutes to speak to manager. That never happened either. I have called back the next day and as I am typing this comment I am again on hold for 30:47 minutes and holding. All I want to do is cancel my reservation. I have no confidence my reservation is something I can trust... The name Cheap describes my problem... I hope I can get someone to respond... Helpless!!!

    I purchased a ticket to go to Oregon and I paid extra for insurance on my ticket. I went to Cave Junction to see my brother & woke up the next morning to 4 & a half feet of snow. I called CheapOAir about getting the insurance to cover my ticket & they said the weather was not their fault! I told them the insurance was "supposed" to cover unforeseeable problems. "Surely 4ft. of snow is 'unforeseeable'," I said. They then said I must speak to the insurance handler & would have to have $200-$300 to file claim. I called the # for the insurance handler & could never reach anyone! A friend of my brothers had to risk our safety to drive 60 miles to make it to the airport.

    I did a reservation for 2 fly ticket for me (Marco **) and my wife (Kayoko **) from Kahului airport going to Fukuoka (Japan) on the 15 of January. After the electronic ticket was sent to me, I did find out that there was a mistake in my name, for mistake was added a middle name, however I have not a middle name. To just change and cancel the middle name, I had to call Justfly for at least 7 times each of all took at least over 20 minutes.

    To fix this issue justfly charged me 75 dollars that I find it not correct. After I received a mail asking to contact again your agent and I did call again. Finally today after over 40 minutes call, one of your agent mentioned that the only way to fix this was to book the same flight and later cancel my previous booked flight. New flight was arranged and it costed 789.59 dollars way more compare to the 585 dollars that was the original price of the ticket I booked, same time and same day. Also they informed me that my 584 dollars refund (cost of my first fly ticket) will take from 6 to 8 weeks to get in my account. Please I would like higher management to look into this and have me refund the additional cost I had to pay for just a small change on a middle name. Please let me know as I find this unacceptable.

    I booked a flight to India with online special price of $799. They mentioned to get this price you have to call 800 #. I called 800 # and they changed the price of same flight to $899. Anyway I went ahead and booked the flight. Be careful with seat assignment tool as they charged another 68$ for that. I might have missed the fine prints of fees associated with booking. This was my first and last time I ever booked by CheapOair. I have at least 50 colleagues in my team who travel once to Asia. I will make sure everyone is aware of this.

They said there would be no charge for the error and helped me book the right order. I then was charged $203.00 more on my card. I immediately called and they were rude and not helpful at all. One guy said he would give me a $100.00 refund but wanted the agent that helped me to give me a callback which happened within 3 minutes. I was happy they called so fast only to be disappointed when he said he would give me $50.00. I told him the other agent said $100.00. Then he told me he would call me back after talking to the other agent. He did call me back and gave me $100.00 refund but was rude and unhappy.

I do see that you booked this with an agent over the phone, therefore we do have a service fee that is charged for making the reservations, and you also added travel assist which includes seat assignment fees. It is listed in our terms and conditions that we do charge a fee for our service. I do see that your reservation was canceled, and everything refunded.

    I thought I found a great deal on 2 round-trip tickets from NYC to Israel for June 2017. I thought that perhaps there was a fare sale going on. I purchased 2 tickets through Kayak.com which linked me to book them through CheapOair. I was able to pay the 2 tickets via my PayPal account and I also got a booking reference number (CheapOair Booking: **). They called me and told me that there was a glitch in the computer system and the advertised prices were not the correct prices. I personally think that they should have honored the advertised prices. It just feels like a bait-and-switch operation. CheapOair simply decided to cancel our booking without offering us any deal.

    Omar, the travel protection as you mentioned if purchased you can cancel at anytime. Unfortunately that is not correct. It is for medical emergencies, illness, baggage delay, and death. It does not cover a change of plans as you mentioned for any reason. You booked this online on Dec 26, and travel isn't until Jan 11, if you were having problems booking the insurance online, you had several weeks to call us and add it. I do see that you called on jan 6 to change the dates and didn't want to pay the add collect, that's when you brought up the insurance issue. You can see a complete PDF file on our website regarding the coverage for the trip protection, and will see it does not cover a change of plans. Our apologies for any inconvenience.

    Horrible, horrible experience and even worse customer service. I booked this flight in August (4 months ago) to save some money. It was round trip to Seattle. That morning when I was supposed to leave I woke up too late and missed my flight. My fault, no need to be mad at anyone. I called customer service to check can I get new ticket, since it was right before NYE everything was booked. I asked can they help me to book new flight. They told me that ticket is more than $300 and that flight is late in the evening. No one telling me anything about flight back. Since I purchased round trip I was thinking okay, I just need to get there now since I have ticket to go back. Every person I spoke with never mentioned anything about flight back, was talking only about how to get there. I decided to pay extra $300 because I already had my plans and it's nobody's fault I was late.

    My vacation was done and I was supposed to go back home. I came 2 hour earlier to be sure I won't miss my flight! I tried to do self check in and it was showing error. I was like let me check with representative. After checking my confirmation code they told me MY TICKET HAS BEEN CANCELED! I almost got heart attack. Person I spoke with first time I called said NOTHING about it and was trying to help me book one way ticket, NO EMAIL confirmation that my ticket has been canceled. They told me I have to buy new ticket and price is $500 now!!! $250 for round trip, $300 to get here after being late to my flight and $500 to go back home!!!

    I could buy ROUND TRIP right away if I knew, I'm not stupid! OMG! San Francisco-Seattle $1100!!! I could go to Australia for that money!!! After speaking to a manager told me there's nothing they can do and that is considered ticket will be canceled! Considered??!! By who? The worst experience of my life! Ripoff!!!

Since I had read the information regarding no charge if I called within the four hour margin I was upset. Now I am happy that it worked out that way since the funeral is set for the 26 and I leave on the 27. That was God working things out for me.

    I'm very pleased to write this review of my experience with CheapOair this morning. I was trying to find the least expensive way of flying from New York City to Los Angeles to San Francisco and back to New York. I was looking for an itinerary that would allow me to travel before the end of this month (January 2017) and be and return home within a week. Complicating matters was the fact that I had not decided on my exact travel dates. Of course this made the booking process more difficult and more time consuming.

    Nevertheless, the booking agent for CheapOair was outstanding! He was incredibly patient with all the changes I kept making and, while the whole process took close to an hour, he was able to finalize the details of my trip and I am now looking forward to going to LA and San Francisco, departing two weeks from tomorrow. I was then transferred to the agent's supervisor who reviewed and confirmed the details of my trip. In the meantime, I had received an email giving me all the relevant information as well as my e-tickets and credit card receipt. I have absolutely no hesitation in giving CheapOair the highest possible rating and, barring any unforeseen problems, I will certainly be using their services for my next trip.

The following day I receive an email saying the tickets couldn't be issued at that price. The button to show new fares took me to a page that did not show the changes. I called again. I was told that the fares had been increased almost 50% so I asked for the booking to be held while I conferred with the passengers for whom I was making the booking.

    However, before I called back to discuss the booking once more I noticed a new email was sent explaining that the 'additional charge' 'per passenger' was different to the numbers I'd been told along with a different 'total cost to change this itinerary including taxes and fees'. Another email followed three times, with different numbers yet again. I therefore called again. The final numbers were confirmed through two more emails. Finally, I was able to confirm the flights.

I was stuck overnight on a random island and had to stay at the airport while I struggled to book my flight for the next day. Worst was that the airport closed at night time so I actually stayed on a bench outside the airport while guarding all my luggage! This time, I booked a flight to Dubai. My husband does not have a US passport but is a permanent resident. He called and SPOKE to a CheapOair rep to book our flight. He explicitly mentioned that he has an Asian passport and NOT a US passport. The rep was confident and confirmed to my husband that he understands and guarantees there won't be any issues.

    My husband, me and our 2 year old son paid a hefty $3500 for our tickets thus confirmed with the agent that we don't run into any problems. Going to Dubai, we had 1 stop over in Amsterdam. Returning, the agent had booked our tickets for 2 stop overs, Amsterdam and Paris. When it was time for us to return to the US, we went to the airport. When we got there, we were told by the airline (KLM) that since my husband does not have a US passport, he cannot travel thru 2 "Schengen countries" - the first time we ever hear this term. Instead of offering a different route, KLM cancelled our ticket saying "you booked it from CheapOair, you need to deal with them!" (Yes I will leave KLM this review as well!)

    You would think that the CheapOair agent would be given proper training and would know of the Schengen Treaty before they helped you book your tickets! But the customer service rep ("Mitch") nor his supervisor ("Rodrick" the western-named agents with the thickest Indian accents) knew what the Schengen Treaty was and had to call KLM for clarification!

    The supervisor asked and put me on hold for an hour and reviewed the call by my husband when he called to book the flight to make sure he noted that he had a foreign passport or not to the agent. He came back and said "yes he did say and it was our agent's error that he booked your flight like this". I was like "okay, can you please give us another flight back home?" After another 30 minute hold, the rep told me about another flight back home with only 1 stop over and at the end of telling me about the flight, said it would be $3000! He said he can't do much.

    After more back and forth, and being handed over to multiple agents and supervisor, I was told that the best they can do was give us a ticket 2 weeks after (my husbands and my work started in less than a week! ), and on top of that asked us to cover some of the cost ($800) because "you need to understand our position and costs too"! Now I must pay for the mistake of an extremely incompetent company that needs to learn about their business before actually running it! I would advise to stay clear of CheapOair and either use someone more professional or the airline directly so they can actually help you at the airport in a time of worry or God-forbid, a more serious crisis.

She said I could change it for $90. I told her I would call in the morning. So I call in the morning and I'm told it is $80 to change it. I told the rep that I understand I can cancel for free and it's cheaper on Kayak. He told me there was a $25 cancellation Fee. I said OK. THEN I find out there is an ADDITIONAL $60 non-refundable fee because it was more than 4 hours. So THE COST OF THE CANCELLATION WAS MORE THAN THE CHANGE - and this was not communicated to me.

    I wasted a lot of time dealing with this and spoke to several representatives and no one told me anything about the card being declined. They told me each time that they were completing a verification process (but the credit card company said that no one made any attempts with them to verify the card in the past day). No email notifications were sent either. I had to cancel the booking with CheapOair (why would I have to cancel if the card was declined?) and then book through Expedia.ca.

    I understand that flight prices change rapidly but when I check out, I expect to receive the price that I was quoted from beginning to end of checkout. After putting in my credit card information, they changed the price by hundred dollars at the last stop of the whole process. As a consumer it's frustrating (especially on mobile) because you either have to start the whole process over and hope to get a better deal or just bite the bullet and let them upcharge you. They also make it appear like there are barely any seats left on the plane (for a trip five months away).

    I always prefer making changes (including cancellations) online, but that wasn't possible. CheapO just couldn't resist trying to sell me on a "change" instead of "cancellation". Well, kids--if I'd had the info to make a change, I would have. I don't appreciate the pressure (however gentle) not to cancel. But Amelia was professional and the cancellation (once we got past the "change/cancel" hurdle) was quick and painless. But there is NO reason for it to take more than 7 days to refund my money except, of course, CheapO's interest-skimming. Yes, I know about that.

    Dear Susan, sorry to hear that you didn't have a good experience. We don't allow changes via the website on your own due to the types of tickets we sell, and the airline penalties and add collects that are associated with a change. If you have used other travel sites, you will notice they don't allow changes either with out speaking with a sales agent, only some airlines offer that. As for "skimming" the money, the money is with the airline you chose to fly with, we are the travel agency and anything purchased on our site goes to the airline to pay for your passage, so the misconception that CheapOair keeps the funds its not correct. Refunds have to go through an airline accounting company once we request it, and from there, goes to the airline accounting department which authorizes the refund. So with the long process, it can take upto 30 days to receive a refund. But happy that Amelia was able to provide professional assistance to you.

    I called to inquiry the charges of extra $200 for my seats. I had to wait a long time for the available agent to answer. However, the long wait was worthwhile because your agent Denita patiently explained the charges and agreed to remove them by reassigning my seats. I appreciated her excellent help and compliment your employing excellent agents like Denita.

    I had to cancel this flight because it was only one way and we needed round trip. I am truly shocked and disappointed that it will take 7 to 14 days from my money to be refunded onto my credit card. Especially since I called the very same day when I discovered my error. I personally feel that this is not a good business practice, but will continue to try and make reservations through CheapOair.

    Betsy, at times the money will be back sooner if the ticket was voided, it all depends on your bank and when they will release the pre-authorization that is actually the charge you are seeing. So it may only take 3 days, but check with your bank, they maybe able to release the funds sooner.

    I would give 5 stars except that when I called within one hour to cancel my flight because I had found a cheaper price, I was promised that the price could be matched and a partial refund issued. I was told I would receive an email within 1-2 hrs to confirm this information. After 2 hrs had passed and I still hadn't heard anything, I contacted customer service via chat to follow up. They once again assured me that I would get an email to confirm the refund within 1-2 hours. Over 12 hours later I still have not received any such email.

    Your website is riddled with problems when it comes to logging in and redeeming points. For the past 2 weeks, I have attempted to log in to claim 10,000+ points that I have accumulated on flights. I have not once successfully been able to log in, on two current version browsers (Firefox and Chrome). When attempting to log in to access my points on the app (which I have been trying to do for months), the app crashes repeatedly, logs me out, and displays error messages. This is unacceptable. You offer a rewards points program with points that cannot be redeemed. But the purchase process, of course, works smoothly. I do not recommend your service, as I think this is a breach of responsibility to your customers, and I am reaching the point that I may write publicly about my negative experience in this regard. I would like to speak to a customer service agent as soon as possible to remedy this situation.

    I am not sure what the processes with your company but whatever it is the experience I had was beyond horrendous. My reservation was canceled twice claiming that my bank would verify my information. So for the third time I place my reservation I contacted the credit card verification team, and they reached out to my bank. My bank then verified my information and then the representative proceeded to tell me that he would call me right back to verify my phone number. 45 minutes later of me standing next to my phone still no call so I decided to call back. After calling that I receive another representative that didn't know what's going on from the credit card verification team transferred me to someone that supposedly a supervisor. Then after that they reached out to a supervisor that happen to be out for a walk and should be back in 10 minutes.

    45 minutes of me being on hold and supposedly getting a callback and my tickets being booked I still have no tickets. I have no confirmation but bank verification has already been done. Then I proceed with anger and I told the representative to cancel my ticket right away. I directly contacted Virgin Air and I landed up getting the tickets even cheaper. Even when I tell the representative cancel the tickets right away magically the supervisor happened to be standing right there when two seconds ago he was nowhere to be found. He mentions he can bring the supervisor on the phone and I told him, "I don't want to speak to anyone anymore. If I don't have my eTicket number in the next two seconds just cancel my tickets."

    30 to 45 minutes after that I finally got my tickets canceled, booked my own flight through Virgin Air and I didn't have to deal with the madness your company has to offer. I was really looking forward to using your company for the first time since it seemed like a seamless and a really good idea but you guys have prove me otherwise on several occasions. Not sure how this company even still survives.

    Mr. Ranke, after looking over the reservation it was determined that you called a month later to cancel the reservation. The airline tickets are non refundable. When the agent canceled and sent you an email, it was to advise you of a partial refund for insurance, and seat assignments, not the cost of the plane ticket. However, you have taken it as a refund including the cost of the airline tickets, which is not the case.Also, your plane ticket for the booking you gave here is not 332.00 but was for $121.20 you were given refunds on dec 21 in the amount of $24.00, $86.25, and $14.95 for any further assistance or questions regarding this, please contact our billing department.

    Very sorry for the inconvenience.

Was at the airport in nigeria waiting to board plane, airlines stated it was not confirmed by your staffing.

    I had to pay for another ticket which was not fair to me. Caused financial hardship, stress for me in an International Airport. I was there for my wedding and honeymoon and I was very frustrated when I could go home on Thursday 29th. Left friday morning back to america, then I had to take a bus to richmond, so the money I spent on a plane ticket was a waste of money.
