    Generally a good experience. The representative knew her stuff although the Indian accent took some listening to get used to. Also, I felt a little rushed and wasn't absolutely sure that all possibilities to save me a few dollars were fully explored. Maybe I'm expecting too much, but that was the feeling I had as the flight cost more than I was anticipating.

    I had a very bad experience with CheapOair. While I was out of the country, our flights to return home were canceled due to a snow storm. I quickly went online to find flights to return. CheapOair had some flights of interest so I attempted to buy my flights. Here is what is wrong with their website: They take too long to load the flights selected. They change the dates of the flights you selected. They don't let you see/confirm your order before your purchase.

    Every time I found flights that fit my budget and time schedule, they were sold by the time I went through the check out process. This means that if someone is in the process of paying for flights they chose, the site does not put a hold the flights through the purchase. Anyone who has quicker internet service can pick your flights while you are in the process of paying. The payment process takes so long as you have to go through several pages, you can imagine how many flights I lost. This is the worst. I chose a date of 1/24/16 as it was the closest date to my original travel date available. The website changed my purchase date to 2/13/16. During my purchase, the website did not allow me to view or confirm my order. I was not aware that the site had changed my dates. I was so frustrated when I saw the dates on my order.

    When I called CheapOair, I was on the phone for more than 2hrs. They couldn't find a flight to change my dates. The person on the phone took my number and said he will call back within 30 min. They never called back. When I tried to call the number again, they stated that department was closed and will be open until Monday. (It was Sunday Morning). So of course I had to purchase other tickets instead of changing my order from their error. I ended up having to stay 4 extra days in another country because I couldn't find any other flights. Since I was in another country, the phone calls were getting too expensive. I decided to wait until I get into the country. When I was in the airport on my overlay flight, I called the website to clear up the mess.

    They were rude, uncompassionate and careless. They didn't want to take the blame for all the errors or website problems. The supervisor did not want to believe me when I told him everything that happened. He put me on hold while he can listen to the recording. When he came back to me, he stated that I was correct, but either way, he was not going to reimburse me for the ticket that I bought in error because it had been more than 24 hours past the purchase. I was trying to get reimburse for their error and they would not accept my request because it was past 24 hours. But they were not available when I called in within the 24 hrs. They were not helpful at all. I would never do business with them again.

    I had CheapOair recommended to me by a co-worker for a business trip. Due to changes in scheduling, I had to change my returning flight times. This ended up costing more than I paid for the entire cost of tickets the first time, which is somewhat to be expected. The problem was that cheapoair accidentally withdrew the funds for this charge TWICE from my account, and notified me one of the charges would be refunded. Even though they can take money out of your account instantaneously, they can't process the refund for an entire 14 business days - but that's not the end of it. Once they've "processed" your refund, it may take an additional 14 business days to show up in your account.

    I have been waiting 3 months, and countless hours being placed on hold to correct my misspelled name for our tickets for international travel. The agent misspelled my name by 1 letter, and you would think that this would be an easy fix. The airline cannot change it themselves because I booked through CheapOair, and dealing with their customer service is the worst thing ever. It's like being in a repetitive nightmare. I email the things they need, but then no one replies. I talk to representatives, and they can't help. I get passed on from supervisor to supervisor. My flight is in 2 days, and after being on hold for 2 hours, they tell me that they will call me back! I am at my wit's end. CheapOair sucks! Don't trust them. Saving a little bit more is not worth it. Never again will I allow myself to get the life sucked out of me by dealing with these jokesters.

    Have been trying to book a flight for the last 24 hours. This flight has been showing up on their site for 24 hours. Every time I try and book it, it says that the flight has been sold out, yet someone calls me back and is willing to sell me the same flight for a significantly higher price. Then it goes back to the flight screen telling me to select a different flight yet it shows me that flight as available again. Their excuse was that the airlines prices change all the time. I have checked Expedia and they don't list this flight at the price their website is listing it so evidently their site and whatever it uses in the background sucks or it's just a scam. I have spoken to numerous Cheapoair reps and want to bang my head against a wall. As a matter of fact, I will go and select the flight right now and upload all the images to this review.

    They tried to solve it after I left the complaint. The changing price for my tickets finally went to $240. It is OK for me. But I hoped that they can do it in the beginning and it would save a lot of time for the customer and also the Cheapoair agent. Customer service is critical to the business success.

    Original Review: Feb. 12, 2016

    I was trying to change my trip. The customer service is so bad. The guy told me first it only costs $170 to make changes. I am fine with the price. And then he told me that it was wrong, the price should be $620! I told him that if they cannot help me make the change with reasonable price, I will cancel my flight and refund my money back. He said that "our policy doesn't allow refund" and I will get nothing back. That's so ridiculous.

    I said that I need to make a complaint. He said "CheapOair doesn't have that kind of thing, you have no place to make the complaint". His attitude is so bad, now I know why. Cheapoair didn't train their customer service at all and even no place to complaint for the bad service their employee gives! I will stay away from this business. I used cheapoair for 3 years and spend almost $10,000 dollars for my international business trips. Now I realize that they just want to earn your money and they never thought about take care of their customers. There is no service! That's super ridiculous!

    I have never done this before but the poor service, lack of professionalism has pushed me to writing this complaint. I purchased tickets from them in August 2015 for an international flight that was to take place in December of the same year. The process was complicated by the fact that we were billed and not given a ticket for my son. After calling and finally speaking with someone we were assured that the problem had been resolved. We thought nothing more of it until we arrived on the date in question at the airport to learn that my son's ticket was never purchased by CheapOair. I was forced to pay double the original booking price to buy him a ticket. I immediately called CheapOair and spoke to Sherwood ** about the problem. He told me to buy the ticket and that CheapOair would reimburse me for the purchase of my son's ticket.

    Fast forward two months, it has now been 60 days since the travel and I have not been reimburse for 1/2 of the ticket. It was a pain getting the first payment, but the second payment has still not been refunded my credit card. I advise all who even think about using this company to think twice before booking with these people as they don't care about their service or repeat customers.

The fare was $1228.52 (refund $734.52). The way of doing business is really devious and not honest. I am okay if they told me there would be a charge instead of the nearly full amount credit.

    I have booked a ticket through this company. I got a good deal and I was happy with the price but my plans were changed and I had to change the return date only. So I called to the company on the same day when I booked the ticket (booked the ticket in the morning time and called for changing the date at night). The agent is trying to make a decision very fast and in order to change it I have to pay 51$ more. I said I am not willing to pay extra and I was informed that the cancellation is 75$. I took a moment and quickly searched the ticket for that day while I was on the phone with the agent. I found the ticket for the same price and said to the agent that I see available ticket for the same price and the agent told like it wasn't updated still and that's why I see ticket for that price.

    What a joke! If it is not updating and if somebody buys a ticket on that time, what they will say then, the same story? Like because of it wasn't update we will cancel it? So far I changed the date and the agent told me to pay 51$ for ticket price. Not any fee or not for any service when I received the e-ticket, I see on the bill 51$ more for post booking charges not ticket price. By the way, I checked just now and I see there is still available ticket for 20$ more for the same day, not 51$ more. So far my experience wasn't good with them. My advise to the people, be very careful if you are using this company service, a little bit mistake from your side makes them to charge you more.

By the time I called back around 26th Jan. and mentioned my problem, I was booked back to 15th Feb. with additional cost over $300 which totaled over $1400, that is outrageous as on the same date. I checked online prices and there were prices listed below $1300. You have charged at least $200 more than other online portals, including Etihad and Jet Airways which are my airlines for this trip. This very disappointing and frustrating experience. You should not charge way up than others provided you are claiming lowest fares.

    I have used CheapOair quite a bit in the past but this booking has been a nightmare. After telling me twice that an e-mail receipt would be sent, it was not. Every time you call you have to prove who you are, even though they do not do their job. I now have a new policy, I will never do business with CheapOair again.

    I had spent many hours trying to find a round trip flight from Austin to Dublin by searching myself. I received an email from CheapOair that looked like what I wanted. The booking was only available by phone. I called and was given all the details and booked immediately. Grant answered all my questions and quoted a price that remained the same throughout our conversation. He did not try to get me to buy anything I did not want. He was personable and professional in his manner. In the future, I will save time and go to CheapOair to book flights.

    On January 6, 2016 I booked a ticket from Buffalo to El Paso. When I saw the great deal $380 round trip, I jumped on it. I did not pay close attention to the fact that a "nearby" airport would be used. I finished booking delighted by my great purchase. It didn't occur to me to check my email for the confirmation because I had cut and pasted it to my word file. Little did I know that my flight had been booked out of Toronto, which means that I now have to leave my house four hours before my flight leaves and drive 100 miles each way, plus pay $120 for parking. I've been traveling for over 40 years, and this is the first time I've had such a bad experience booking a flight.

    I booked a flight on the 3rd to come back on the ninth, it glitched and apparently booked me for a flight on the second, I checked the email the day before, because I bought for the 3rd and thought I wouldn't have to worry, I printed out my flight schedule and noticed it was the 2nd, now I am out $1150, you call to ask the manager for a refund and they say they will put you on hold and hang up on you. I definitely would not recommend this company and since you're booking from a different agency, you can't get a refund.

    Updated on 03/27/2016: I recently got back from my trip after repurchasing another ticket from a different website, still wondering why I still can't get any sort of refund from them, they then stated that after 30 days they can't do anything. I called on the EXACT day I missed my flight and they said it was my fault or said it's not our fault but the actual airlines. I spent 6 hours that day calling back and forth. Note I am a college student. I don't come from money. I had to drop my semester and visit my ill grandpa overseas last minute. I will still keep calling and figure out the REAL reason they don't want to help me.

Then a week later I tried to reserve my seats and it took the returning flight but not the departing. So I called. It cost me $14 to reserve a seat. What was the $334 for - a seat on the floor? Then they only reserved me one seat and it cost me another $9 for a seat on the departing flight. What a joke!

Also had some problems with making our seat reservations as didn't quite understand which seats were already reserved & that there were some that did not cost anything & others were over $17/seat. Needless to say we sit in the higher priced seats going down & free ones coming home. Overall the experience was not a bad one & I might try making flight arrangements again this way.

    I have been trying to book a flight for the last 24 hours. This flight has been showing up on their site for 24 hours. Every time I try and book it, it says that the flight has been sold out, yet someone calls me back and is willing to sell me the same flight for a significantly higher price. Then it goes back to the flight screen telling me to select a different flight yet it shows me that flight as available again. Their excuse was that the airlines prices change all the time. I have checked Expedia and they don't list this flight at the price their website is listing it so evidently their site and whatever it uses in the background sucks or it's just a scam. I have spoken to numerous CheapOair reps and want to bang my head against a wall. As a matter of fact, I will go and select the flight right now and upload all the images to this review.

    I booked my flights on the website and although I received an email of the booking, the tickets were not yet confirmed. The following day I received an email from CheapOair credit card fraud department saying they were trying to contact me. This made me slightly upset because this being urgent I should've been contacted by phone not email. Had the ticket prices increased I would've had to pay the increase as the tickets were not yet confirmed. It took 6 hours to get this resolved and finally confirmed thanks to a gentleman by the name of Elliot who helped me.

    This was not enough for a 2 star rating but what did make it a 2 star rating was when I spoke to a representative who offered to help me select my seats for the $29 fee. I agreed and I told him I wanted both seats together with one being a window seat. To my surprise when the tickets were confirmed neither seat was a window seat on the first flight which is the longest flight. When I called to get this resolved I was told I would have to pay an additional $29 fee. This irritated me highly as it was not my mistake and I could've easily chosen my own correct seats on the website. For that reason I was dissatisfied with the experience.

    So my husband booked a trip for us. He thought he was going directly to the airlines site when he booked it. So all was well at that point. Then when it was time for us to do the online check in, I realized he put an extra letter on my name! Oh boy! so now were in panic stage! So he calls CheapOair, and he spoke to a rep! (I'm not sure if I can put his name on here, so I won't.) This guy made us pay an additional $500.00! He said we had to cancel that ticket, and purchase another ticket, because of the extra letter that was added to my name. So that's when my husband realized he wasn't talking to the airline, and it was cheapOair!

    My husband asked, "Well, should I call the airline directly?" This guy said, "No, there's nothing that can be done. You have to pay the $500.00! But we will give you a $300.00 credit for a future flight!" So he purchased it! Well after all that was over, I was messing around on the check in process, and wow! I could have corrected the mistake while I was doing an online check in! But we didn't know that before we called CheapOair! What he did was not cool! I will use my credit, I have with CheapOair, but after that, I'm done with them and of course I will spread the word to friends and family!

    The agent was polite and knowledgeable. She explained the options and why the ticket price had increased. After I'd committed to the ticket, she gave me the name of the airline, the flight numbers, departure time, amount of layover, arrival at destination for each flight. We discussed additional services, but she was not trying to upsell me; my impression was that she was only giving me information about the options. She sent me e-mails confirming the details we'd discussed. Her courtesy was outstanding -- she willingly repeated numbers I wanted to check.

    I recently bought round trip tickets from Israel to Budapest via this site. The price seemed great - and I was pleasantly surprised when I made the reservation because I WAS SURE that it included baggage fees. I triple checked everywhere on the CheapOair website and felt good when I made this reservation. Afterwards, someone here at my work told me there was no way that my flight would include baggage. I called the airline directly and found out that this is true.

    So, I had to pay an extra $70 per person to add the baggage. I tried to chat with someone (it took 1 hour) and in the end, she said they can't take responsibility for what they write on their site. It's so ridiculous. I saved the transcript of the chat. I didn't get any compensation. Next time - I'll just remember - if it sounds too good to be true - something is wrong! Lesson learned. I really hope someone will contact me to make up for this... I work in marketing and advertising - and I know this is very false and misleading info that CheapOair publish just to make a sale.

They then sent me an e-mail that I needed to approve a new flight that was $200 more. They took no responsibility in not booking my flight. The did not say that my flight was pending anything when they sent me an email confirmation that stated at the top that it was "Booked on Tue, Jan 26, 2016". Now I have had to change my travel plans in meeting up with a friend and accept a flight that has a 8-hour layover there (vs 4:30hrs) and two 8-hour layovers back (instead of one 2 hour layover) to get an equivalent price.

    I got in when prices were very low, part of the reason to travel, and was faced with dropping out of my vacation entirely, paying double, or accepting much longer layovers than what I originally bought. They would do nothing to take responsibility for not booking the flight on my behalf. They even tried to lie to me about issues with PayPal until I informed them that I set up websites, have worked with the PayPal api, and know that the excuses they gave me didn't make sense (not that there can't be issues).

But your website processing doesn't go through properly so you have to call the toll free number and they give you an excuse. The constant excuse for all advertised fares with your company is that the advertised rate has been taken by somebody else. This is not the case and then challenged, or you threaten to cancel, you offer a refund of the excess charges. But those have never come true and you don't give a receipt right away for the refund. Where is my promised refund $100? On a positive note your agent was very helpful

    I just had to pay $220 to shift my arrival date back by 1 day because I overlooked the fact that my flight would be arriving in Istanbul the day after I left Tokyo. How I managed to overlook this, I really don't know, but I do know that the emailed confirmation I received strangely does not list this information. Although I expected this on my return flight to Japan, I missed that I would also be arriving very early the next day in Istanbul. Unless you click on the link for the printable online itinerary customers can easily overlook this and make costly mistakes (as I did!).

    Although it may have been my oversight, I cannot ever recall having overlooked such important details while making reservations in the past and especially given that those details were not listed in the confirmation I received, I wonder how clear the next day arrivals were made to me during the reservation process. So, at the very least, I suggest you change the content of your emailed confirmations (and possibly the information displayed during the reservation process) so that it clearly indicates when arrivals are on the following day (as in the printable itinerary). I hope you find these suggestions helpful.

    I booked the flight for my son and his family to come from Montana to Illinois. All went smoothly, the price was good, and the flights were ok. When I was done and reviewed every page I hit enter, to my horror after having reviewed, my daughter-in-law was listed as a male. At that point, I found it could not correct by me. I emailed the help but it was too long of a wait for a representative to come online so I called the number for help.

    I had a very nice young man that helped me but he told me the only way he could correct the male to female is to change the flights. He told me I would have to change the flights to different airline. He gave me new dates which would not work for my son and family. I gave him the dates again and after a few minutes he returned with a flight that was acceptable. So we booked the flight for a service charge. It is a little longer than the first flight due to going to Seattle then on to Chicago, they are travelling with a 1-year-old so I was looking for the shortest flight possible. Now I need to find out if I have to print the boarding passes or they can go to the airport the morning of the flight with the confirmation and their IDs.

    I bought Round trip ticket, and suddenly, after one month of purchasing, I got mail that is informing me about 'slight' changes. Well, that SMALL change is that one of my flight disappeared from my ticket. Two airlines showed me, on their computers that that flight never existed, which means CheapOair sold me full ticket, but gave part of it. Now, they are 'investigating'. There is nothing to investigate, just to give that ticket, and I don't have intention to pay for their mistake, or irresponsibility!

    I consider myself very fortunate to have had Davio as my contact. He was endlessly patient and answered each of my questions completely. He steered me away from at least one expensive (and non-refundable) error. He also understood what no one else, including my husband, immediately grasped: that even if you're flying to and from different airports in Florida, it's imperative to fly from and to the same Cleveland area airport if you don't want to fund a 35-mile taxi ride upon your return home. He gave me some very useful tips in other areas, too. In short, I would tell people to use CheapOair and ask for Davio!

    I recently booked a return flight with CheapOair to Amsterdam to surprise my Mum on her birthday as we have recently lost my Dad. I entered my search and selected the flight with the best times. I then double checked the details and paid. Then when I got the receipt it was for a flight to "apparently a nearby airport" when actually it was to Belgium and came back from another airport in Holland. I called straight away and despite being on the phone over 30 mins they said it cannot be refunded. I am very unhappy with their lack of service and would not recommend them. I've now lost money I can ill afford and will have to pay again for flights. This company is appalling.

    I booked 2 bundles (flight & hotel) to Oahu, Hawaii on CheapOair. A few hours later I found a much better deal on Expedia with the same flight ticket & hotel bundles (saves at least $250 for 2 bundles). So I called CheapOair customer support to request a price matching with Expedia (since it was still within 24 hours time frames), otherwise I wanted a cancellation and book with Expedia instead. They transferred me to different representatives, then different departments since they said they have different department that handle flights, hotel, car rental, and bundle. Finally I got hung up from them.

    I tried to call them back 3 times with different numbers they have on their website. I ended up waiting for more than an hour to speak to the last representative, who asked whether I wanted to keep my booking or cancel it with penalty fees of $50 per flight ticket. When I asked her about the hotel cancellation (since I booked flight and hotel bundles), she told me they have different department that handle hotels so she did not know whether I would get penalty for canceling the hotel booking. It was my first time booking with CheapOair and I had very bad experience with them.

    I booked my airline ticket from Australia in Nov 9 2015 with booking no **. They charged my credit card 1362.23 Australian dollars. But due to some reason I cancelled my ticket within 4 hours. They refunded 1270.68 australian dollars to my credit card, which is a 91.55 australian dollars less amount. Company's term and conditions shows there is no charge deduction if you cancel ticket within 4 hours, which I did. When I asked they said these charges are for currency conversion charges from australian dollars to us dollars. I am using online bookings from years but never seen such a BAD COMPANY who is charging such amount for currency rates to customers. I will try to all social websites to expose this fraudulent behaviour of this company CheapOair.

    Good service to book a well priced international flight however there was a small uptick in price between the internet advertised price and the one the agent offered - not enough to break the deal. The internet site did not permit enough interaction to get information to permit the booking so a phone call was necessary - this lengthened the process significantly but the operator was very helpful. In the end I was satisfied with the booking. Only missing are seat assignments for 3/6 segments. Let's see.

    Had some issues with unknown fees being charged to my credit card - After bringing this up they called me, apologized and credited me some extra money - a little annoying but they ended up doing the right thing.

    Original Review: Jan. 13, 2016

    To start, for the past 5 years I have booked multiple flights with CheapOair per year online without any problems. Recently, I had a flight where something came up with work and I needed to push my vacation a week into the future. I called a few times to discuss changing my flights and received multiple quotes and multiple policies regarding trip cancellation. Sometimes the difference in fare came into play, sometimes it didn't. I finally spoke to an agent who cancelled my flight to Manila through Seoul and was going to re-book me a flight to Manila through Taipei. They tried to quote me a price for the new flight that was over $200 more than what I was seeing on their website. He pleaded that I book it over the phone and that he would match the price I was seeing online.

    I agreed and asked why he was charging me a higher price to which he stated that there are entrance visa required for Taipei/Manila that cost over $100/person and he was giving me a deal on them (I have been to both Taipei and Manila and there are no such requirements). He booked the flight and send me receipts via email. A week later I check my credit card to see a mysterious $87 fee from CheapOair, I call and talk to multiple agents who give me a variety of special fees that must have been charged. Eventually I speak to someone in the "concerned persons" department who states that they will give me a refund, informs me that their agents are sales people who aggressively try to squeeze fees out of people over the phone to get commission for themselves.

    They assured me my individual travel agent would be punished. A few days later I receive confirmation of a refund for my original cancelled flight for $100 less that I was quoted to begin with. I call again, talk to an agent who informs me that he has no idea why it was less and that he would submit my extra refund. Overall impression: These people are not travel agents, they are salesmen trained to squeeze fees out of you. I bet the call centers are third party companies under contract and have no affiliation with CheapOair (but unsure). I have flights every year with these guys and will never go through them again. Good luck.
