    I booked flights via Travel-Atrocity. My last name got truncated and needed to be updated. It took almost 4 hours to get the tickets updated. The customer reps were professional and polite. The wait times were absolutely ridiculous. 2 hours on hold, followed by another 2 hours on and off hold. How are these interminable hold times tolerated by the company? I will never use them again, even though the issue was resolved.

    I search for hotels using my cell phone and found that I will get a 15% discount if I download the Travelocity app. So I did, believing that the code will get me that discount. WRONG! Travelocity did not accept the code! Chat with someone from Travelocity Customer Service and he said I need a screenshot of that transaction. Tried looking for it but nowhere to be found.

    I booked a flight through Travelocity in 2020 that was cancelled due to the pandemic, of course. Today I tried to book a new flight for the same trip using the credit issued in 2020. I talked to 4 different customer service people (all of them had thick foreign accents, making it difficult to understand each other) over 3 hours of my Sunday afternoon. I could only use American Airlines. I could not book it myself because my credit was not available to be used online. I had to sign up for American Airlines Advantage Membership so they could extend my credit to cover this flight.

    The first customer service person hung up on me. The phone connection was not good on his end. When I called back I got another person and had to repeat all of the steps I went through w the first person. By the time I went through the steps a second time the flight that was almost booked was now not available. So I had to pick completely new travel plans. Postponing the trip another month. At one point I asked to just be reimbursed for the cancelled trip, but that was not an option. The new flight cost $300.00 more than the original 2020 flight, because the Travelocity discount offered right now does not apply to rescheduled flights using a credit. So you have to pay full price for your ticket. Needless to say I will never use Travelocity or any other online travel company or American Airlines ever again!!

    Avoid at all costs! The worst experience I’ve ever had with a travel agency! Booked my flight to ensure I wouldn’t have long layovers, a week before my flight Was to take off my flight was changed leaving me stranded in a WHOLE different state with no means to return home unless I paid $400. After staying on hold for over an hour a new flight was booked with a 13 hour layover…ridiculous! Will be taking this to all social media accounts and making plenty of videos on the matter to ensure that future potential customers avoid Travelocity.

    Trying to book a ticket online, the Travelocity website encountered a glitch and asked me start my purchase over; I did and continued my booking. When I refreshed into my account- the glitched flight was also on my itinerary. I chatted with customer service, Bhawna, and was told to contact the airline for a refund on the glitched ticket. I proceeded to call the airline, and then was informed because it was a technical error- Travelocity would have to file a an error form. Travelocity claims they are unable to engage with any airline and refuses to help. I am out quite a lot of money because of the airline ticket cancelation, through the airline, would only refund the taxes on the 'double booked' ticket without the travel agency confirmation.

    I repeat, do not book your Car rental through Travelocity! I was unable to make even the smallest change to my itinerary. I simply wanted to change my vehicle type from a car to an SUV. They told me they were unable to change it, even though I was well within the time window to do so without penalty under the policy of the actual rental company. Instead, they gave me the option to cancel my entire booking and rebook as well as telling me I would have to pay a $50 fee just to cancel. If I had booked under the rental company itself (which I will not name), I would have paid nothing to cancel or change. Just book through the actual rental company so you can make simple changes that any traveler should be able to make. Travelocity is making simple booking more time-consuming and complicated than they need to be.

    I had 'credit' for a flight I booked last year that was cancelled due to Covid. When I recently booked a new flight, I tried to use this credit towards the purchase of my new flight, but the website said it could not be done online, that I had to speak to a booking agent. After a 2-hour hold waiting for an agent, I realized that the seats were nearly all sold. I purchased the flights and tried to use the 'credit' to re-imburse me the next day when I had more time to wait on an agent to answer the phone (the wait music is awful). Another 3 hours went by before a human answered and she made me hold for another 45 minutes while 'checking the policy' on the credit and the flights I'd booked.

    Finally after yet another 15 minutes she returned to the call only to tell me my 'credits' could not be used towards my purchase (same airline) at all but she would be happy to help me book another flight using the credit towards the purchase if ONLY I would wait on hold for another 30 minutes. At this point I gave up and decided to never do business with Travelocity again. This company has no idea what customer service means - I am completely disgusted. I wasted nearly 7 hours total on hold with their agent and wanted to make sure I share this so nobody else has to go thru what I did.

    I booked 4 flights for 2 people through Travelocity.ca with Azul Airlines in Brazil. I had to cancel due to Covid. I have spoken directly with AZUL and they maintain they have given me a TRAVEL VOUCHER for the full value of my booking. Travelocity just needs to call AZUL on their Travel Agents phone line to get the Voucher number. Travelocity refuses to do this. It is against their "Policy". I have spoken with Travelocity 5 times over 2 weeks. They always promise to "look into it", but nothing has been done and the Supervisor who was to call me back within 24 hours has failed to do so. 1 phone call would save me $800 and Travelocity will not do it.

    I booked a flight on Sun Country via Travelocity. The flight I selected was $214. I kept having to refresh my browser due to a slow connection. After about four attempts I gave up and closed my computer. Three seconds later I got a flight confirmation. When I looked at my credit card statement, the charge was $1003. Both Travelocity and Sun Country are telling me they have the right to alter prices at any time. That may be true but you cannot alter a price in the middle of a transaction. Both Sun Country and Travelocity are blaming each other. Travelocity says they are not responsible for price increases. Sun Country says Travelocity should have alerted me to the price increase while I was in the transaction. Both are true.

    I've had the same experience with Travelocity that many others have had. The flights that I had booked months in advance got changed by the airline, then Travelocity said that I had to call the airline to get the booking fixed. It feels like once you pay them, it's all a shell game to play keep away with your money. I think I will try a robo-lawyer or at least some kind of legal remedy. Honestly, I feel like they shouldn't even exist as a company. You are better off in every way calling a travel agent or booking things individually yourself.

    I booked a package to Tahiti in 2020. Due to Covid, I was not able to travel. Even though the flight was non refundable, Delta airlines refunded my money. Not so for Tahiti la Ora resort aka Sofitel. I was offered a credit instead through August 2022. When I reached out to the hotel to rebook, I was informed the resort is closed and have no idea when it will reopen. Told me to reach out to Travelocity for a refund.

    I sent multiple emails and made multiple calls to no avail. Asked to speak to a manager, none available. Either too busy taking complaints or sleeping on the job. All the customer service agents in India have no clue, simply repetitive like reading a script off a notebook. I believe it’s their tactic of keeping me money longer. NEVER book from Travelocity or Expedia again as these are joint third party companies. To avoid any hassle or frustration, book directly from the airlines or hotels. Found out saving a few bucks is not worth what I had to endure. Still waiting for my refund. If I had not inquired about rebooking my hotel, I would not know my whole itinerary had been canceled and no one bothered to contact me, hoping I snooze, I lose.

    If I could give them a 0 I would. I booked flight that was cancelled during COVID. I rebooked and had a partial credit of $278 and they couldn't figure out how to "allow me to use it." It was 26 days of back and forth and they asked me to call the airline and stated it was "out of their hands." I'm pretty sure there is complete dishonesty in their practice and they simply don't want to allow me to use my credit. No one should ever book any trip through Travelocity. I called American Airlines too who said they are holding onto my credit and that it had nothing to do with them.

    To Whom It May Interest, We are having major issues with Travelocity. They sent us an email stating our flights had been cancelled. Due to that error I purchased new flights elsewhere, as we have had nothing but issues while using Travelocity for multiple trips and have lost hundreds of dollars due to their errors. Travelocity is now saying that the flights were not cancelled, despite the email from them they sent stating the opposite. They sent my complaint to higher up executives for review as I was trying to get the tickets credited/refunded due to their grievous error.

    I was told it may take up to 72 business day hours for me to get a response regarding that. Weeks later and I never got a response. So I'm trying to get this resolved again for literally the 5th time. It's safe to say Travelocity has a major inability to manage their system properly and to be perfectly honest I'm starting to wonder if they are operating some sort of serious scam operation as this is the second time I have been put in a situation of financial loss (financial gain for them) due to their seemingly fraudulent business ethics. I will never use them again, there won't be a third. I highly recommend you don't use Travelocity for anything unless you want to test your stress endurance or you enjoy donating your money to lost causes.

    Was planning a trip to Puerto Rico to research a wedding venue for my daughter in February 2021. Two way flights were purchased for me and my wife, but we had to cancel due to COVID. Flights booked were Delta flights, and an airline credit was credited to my Travelocity Account. Flights were rebooked for the actual wedding (January 2022) in August - 2021 utilizing the airline credits. Inbound flight was on United, Outbound was Delta (Travelocity switched the carriers after the original reservation even though I booked a two-way with Delta). Because of this I had to book one way fares in order to use the credits.

    Received confirmation from Travelocity and record locators from the airline - all looked good. Then in November, I received an updated confirmation that my inbound flight was canceled. After calling the airline, the credit was not actually applied from Travelocity, the flight was not paid, and we were dropped. After several hours on phone with travelocity, they gave me the runaround and failed to assist. United reissued my tickets directly using my credits. My outbound flight was confirmed again by Travelocity, and was confirmed on Delta’s website, along with my seat assignments.

    Wedding takes place in January 2022, and we make the trip down to the island with no issues. When it came time to check-in online for the return flight with Delta, the system would not allow me to do so, so I had to call the airline. Apparently the reservation was null and void, because it was not paid for through Travelocity. After 10 hours of being on the phone, getting the runaround by Travelocity, they refused to reissue the tickets, which Delta required them to do.

    In the end, I had to rebook my outbound flights with Delta directly at a premium, and within 16 hours of my actual departure time. Travelocity basically took my money, and left me stranded in the middle of my trip. I had to pay double to get home. Never, Never, Never Again will I ever use these thieves for travel arrangements. They are fraudulent, unprofessional, and absolutely do not care for its customers. I’ll use their slogan and just say “Travel Wisely - Do Not Use Travelocity, or risk your own peril”.

When I noticed the error they said it was not refundable and there was nothing they could do. There was no real effort on their part to remedy the problem.

    My wife and I booked first class full fare on United through Travelocity to go from Denver, CO to Newark, NJ to visit our grandchildren for Christmas. We have not seen them since COVID began. My wife has Multiple Sclerosis and LUPUS and had an event right before our travel. Then began the nightmare. We had bought travel insurance through the Travelocity website when we booked. It turned out that Travelocity has NOTHING to do with that insurance and accepts NO responsibility, even though they are the agent that bills you and collects the money when you buy the insurance.

    It turns out that, in addition to the Airline and Travelocity, behind the scenes there is a company that represents the insurance underwriter, the underwriter themselves, and the company that actually holds the policy and determines whether your insurance actually covers cancellation. It takes days to unravel all of this and then you get the paperwork.....which, in the instance of Multiple Sclerosis, guarantees that they will NEVER pay a dime. They require a doctor's detailed description of the actual event and a million other things that are simply designed to guarantee that you will simply give up and accept the loss like we did.

    With MS, after 30 years of dealing wit it, we no longer see my wife's DR with each event but rather simply use the medications that we have a home unless it becomes life threatening. The net is that my wife and I are out $3,300 even though we paid for travel insurance, which is a lot for 70+ retirees on a fixed income who scrimped for months to get that amount. My message would be do not use Travelocity, Expedia, ORBIZ, or any of the on-line travel services (they're all owned by SABRE in Dallas TX). And NEVER, EVER buy travel insurance unless you want to subject yourself to incredible frustration, anger, pain, and financial loss!!!

    I believe that Travelocity Travel Insurance is discriminatory against disabled and handicapped individuals and and, I believe, violates the Americans With Disability Act. I believe that this is fertile ground for a class action suit against them. My wife and I will simply NEVER use any web tool owned by SABRE again and certainly hope that they have a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS with our $3,300! Ours is ruined without it!!!

    Details on their website indicated I could cancel until the day before I check in, which is typical of hotel policies I have encountered. I booked two rooms, but our vacation plans changed, so I went to cancel only to find out I was unable to do so online. During my phone call to them, I found out this was a non-refundable reservation - I was cancelling more than 30 days from my reservation date, and I was shocked. Nothing on my confirmation indicated that. The agent created a case for this and assured me the cancellation penalty (full cost of the 8-night stay) would be waived.. 5 days later, I received an e-mail saying they couldn't reach the hotel and I should call them directly. The hotel cannot accept a cancellation from me, only the travel agency. I have called Travelocity two more times today and they have hung up up on me twice.

    This organization is a den of thieves. Never again will I let these liars take my money and screw me over. Book directly through the airline and hotel—the cost savings with this company, and the entire Expedia enterprise is not worth the lack of customer service support (they MAY answer your call, keep you on hold for hours, and either be unable to help or simply cut you off and disconnect after an hours-long call). The problem isn’t the call center people. The problem is that their instructions are to not allow changes, even for people who have purchased insurance. This is the second time that these jokers have told me that I can use credits from a rescheduled trip, only to change their minds later. And the customer is absolutely powerless.

    I booked a package trip with Travelocity for my family (wife and two young daughters) for October of 2021 to Annapolis Maryland. We had a reservation with the Village Inn for $450 for three nights. It was during the Annapolis boat show, so it was hard finding a room for a decent price. Now I know why. When we arrived from a long day of travel we found a roadside motel that looked nothing like the Travelocity picture. The room was disgusting (stain on the middle of the bedspread that looks like it came from a leaky ceiling) and the property was not safe for a family. I called Travelocity to cancel my reservation. They apologized and said they would take care of it. I was put on hold as my wife found us a different hotel to stay at. They came back on and said the property wouldn't allow for a refund. I was shocked. I then spent the rest of the day trying to get my money back.

    We missed the first day of our vacation because Travelocity has zero customer service and is perfectly happy to take your money. Even though you pay them directly, their customer service people cannot authorize a refund and will argue with you for hours. Don't book with Travelocity/Expedia (they're the same company). Just find a hotel and book directly with them.

    I was "automatically" charged $20 for collision insurance with my car rental from Avis. I didn't realize this until after I got back from my trip and realized my company credit card had been hit with $20. This automatic charge does not show up in the pricing when you "reserve" your car. It's also a bit obscure in the "itinerary" when you receive it. Travelocity sent a separate email about the additional charge, but I get hundreds of emails in that inbox, and since I didn't do anything other than reserve the car, I didn't pay attention to that particular Travelocity email. It's not clear from the get-go that your price is going to be higher due to this charge, which is not right in my opinion.

    On Oct. 10th 2021; I booked a package deal for three to Vegas including hotel & flights. I used Travelocity and screenshot every page I went through to the end. I uploaded the app after payment was made. When I viewed my Itinerary it showed my hotel & my return flight home. But not my flight to Vegas. So I paid for a round trip package from Kansas City to Las Vegas, but do not have the flight info to get there, only the departing flight to get home. So I call customer service & the lady tells me after holding for 16 minutes that I need to call the airline. This is unacceptable, do NOT use Travelocity. They won’t even acknowledge that what I sold is missing the flight to the destination, however she said she understands but offered no solution. She would not cancel the package after me asking multiple times.

    You are much better off booking with the airlines yourself. An emergency occurred a few days before my flight, so I called to sort everything out. I was told (by Ernesto) that I would have to call the airlines and the insurance policy companies myself. So I did, but the insurance company told me to officially cancel with Travelocity, and the airlines told me that Travelocity would have to make the call on my behalf—I couldn’t do it myself because I booked with them. I called again but I was told I would have to wait about an hour and a half, so I went to Twitter to message them in hopes of getting a faster answer.

    I did get a quicker answer, but an incomplete answer that has left me out on a flight and out of my money. One of those who attended to me (GD) stated that I had to book my flight before October 7th, I did it October 6th. However, they neglected to say 24 hours before my flight, or in what time zone they were counting that time—so I was SOL. When I tried to see if they could right this wrong, I was offered $50 for my $960 flight. While they extended an apology, that does not make up for an issue that occurred because their employees gave out wrong and incomplete information. And it wasn’t a phone call where I made a claim—I have the incomplete information as proof in messages, and they still refuse to do more about it beside $50. Unprofessional and disappointing.

In addition, my father has been in the hospital (not Covid, but he's going to be immunocompromised for a bit), so I thought, "Thank goodness I bought the trip insurance." When I went to cancel the trip and mentioned the insurance, the customer "service" rep said, "Oh, no, the insurance can't cover Covid unless you have it."

    I made a reservation for three nights at a hotel in Nome AK in February. The cost for three nights was $569. I assumed I had 24 hours as is the case with airlines to cancel if there was a problem. Not so. Consumers have no protection or grace period. I even took out the travel protection insurance. When I was unable to book a flight I cancelled within three hours of making the reservation. It was cancelled but Travelocity still billed my Amex card for the full amount. I contacted the hotel and they said they could do nothing about it. When a hotel reservation like that is cancelled Travelocity keeps the money and the hotel never sees it. The manager warned me never to use these third party bookings cause the hotel has no control and doesn’t see the money 'til after the stay.

    I tried to reach out to someone at Travelocity but never was able to speak to anyone. Disputed the charge with Amex who said there was nothing they could do. Everyone I spoke to from Amex to other hotels warned me of Travelocity’s terrible business practices, poor customer service and reputation. And by the way, the travel protection insurance they sold me was useless and only covered disruption of travel. I’m considering taking them to small claims court simply on the principle that no one should be subject to such shady business practices. Never again Travelocity or its mother company Expedia.

All you get is a totally useless "virtual agent" on their website and an even worse useless "phone robot" who is not programmed to help or provide service in any way, shape or form.

I called Travelocity and finally got the time-wasting phone robot to "connect" me with a human. Of course that meant infinitely waiting on hold until the phone battery died. Strike one for Travelocity! I called Travelocity again on July 29 and eventually got a human agent. She was very polite, called the hotel while I waited, then said she would send an e-mail to the hotel requesting the refund and the hotel would do the refund. Thirteen days later, no e-mail, no refund!!! Strike two for Travelocity!

    Today I tried to call Travelocity again and could not get through to a human. The customer hostile, poorly programmed, useless phone robot would not accept the 14 digit itinerary number and kept hanging up! I finally got the online "virtual agent" to "connect" with an agent in a chat. After waiting and waiting she said she sent an e-mail to the hotel requesting a refund (gee I've heard that one before).

    The Trip Insurance you buy on Travelocity is not worth the money and I can explain. The cost of the insurance is usually more than you will ever get back if a problem arises. If the airline gives refunds then you will get it but otherwise you will get a credit that in fact is difficult to use. Try to use your credits on Travelocity and see what happens. Good Luck.

    Now you need to cancel because of Covid, or Country has travel restrictions stopping you from coming. The Travel Guard insurance from that point on is a sham. First you need to cancel the booking before you can file a claim, but watch out. If airline issue a credit then no claim can be made and good luck finding a way to use the credit.

    Some foreign airlines, Avianca, Egypt Air, Olympic will not let you cancel. Tell you go back to Travelocity to cancel and Travelocity tell you they cannot cancel, go to airline. See folks and so no way to cancel, no way to get insurance to kick in. And meanwhile money in limbo until you miss the flights and wait until you see the penalties then.

    I spoke to Travel Guard agent and after about 30 minutes of her reading all the intricacies of the policy I realized that she had no intention of helping me make my claims and told her thank you and goodbye. On Travelocity the link to MAKE A CLAIM do not work. So up to you but I will never again purchase insurance when I book with Travelocity or Expedia (same company).

    Then they changed my reservation in such a way that the departure time of one of my connections was 2 hours before the arrival time. Called again, another 4 hour wait, asked for supervisor. They said they would call back within 24 hours, they did not. Called again, another 2-4 hours, cancelled the reservation. They indicated to BBB that the complaint was successfully resolved.

    Our booking for a Cancun trip - hotel and airfare was very simple. But like many, COVID derailed our plans. We were issued airline credits and told we could use them in the next two years. We are now going on our 4th day of being circled around numbers, waiting on hold, being transferred and getting callbacks (after a 3 hour wait) only to be told, “Oh you need a different department”. Then starting over again.

    I have never in my life dealt with such absolute negligence from a company who has customer service representative who seem to only be able to do one thing; transfer you to another rep who also tells you they cannot help you and then they also transfer you again. This company is sitting on 1000$ of our honeymoon flights that we simply want applied to new flights - yet their representatives do not seem to know to do that. I will NEVER use Travelocity again, and warn anyone else who thinks they can book through this site, have to cancel for unforeseen pandemic reasons, and still be able to use credits - that you are in for some serious tail chasing with no resolution. Do yourself a favor and book directly through the airlines. Seriously disappointed.

    I have made reservations with Travelocity before and never had a problem and always saved by using them. I had made reservations 23 days prior to staying at a Holiday Inn Express in Evansville, Indiana. The charge from Travelocity was $333.84 for 2 nights. When I received a copy of the bill from the hotel, it was $224.34. Travelocity charged me over $100.00 more than the hotel charges were. I contacted Travelocity the next day and their only compensation was a $25.00 coupon to be used with them. They advertise that using them saves me money, but in my case it cost me more. I was very disappointed with them and will not be using them again.

Upon arrival I discovered the hotel had been abandoned and boarded up. Travelocity will not connect me with a customer service rep. I keep getting a virtual assistant bot that takes my number for a call back and when I receive the call back it is not from a person but rather from the virtual assistant bot and I am then put on hold each time for over an hour then the call is dropped.

    I made reservations in March for a trip in late May. I was unable to get seat assignments because the Record Locator nor the itinerary number issued by Travelocity could be found on the United Airline website. I tried to call the company over several days and was continuously placed on hold for up to 2 hours and then disconnected. As we got closer to our departure I tired several more times to contact Travelocity without success.

    One week prior to departure I received an email that our flight had changed and a request to accept the changes which I did. Within one hour I received another email which stated that the flight had been canceled. I then called United again and was told that the flight was still scheduled to leave but that they had no record of us from Travelocity. We again tried to call Travelocity for hours without ever being able to connect to an agent. Since our trip was one week away with hotels, etc. booked we had to purchase new tickets on American Airlines for 3x the cost of our original trip with Travelocity. I am still unable to speak with a “live” agent and have no idea how to get reimbursed $890.00 which I paid for the original trip. I believe this company is unethical and should not be allowed to scam people. It is evident from the many other reviews that many others have been swindled as well.

    Travelocity has gone downhill. It is hard to get a hold of anyone from customer service and you are left dealing with a "virtual assistance bot." When cancelling a hotel the virtual assistant was quick to point out the hotel will still charge a fee for cancelation - right after it points out "good news" you can cancel your insurance and get a refund for that. After finally getting a hold of someone in chat - they were quick to point out the insurance was canceled. This dishonest business practice with the virtual assistant is what makes Travelocity a scam. The virtual assistant could point out you could file a claim on the insurance you purchased instead of asking for an insurance refund - after all it's a program.

    Speaking of the travel insurance, it is no longer through Travelocity - even though they sell it - it's a third party insurance agency which requires you to file a claim through them. This is something the actual agent I was chatting with explained, which goes back to the point that the virtual assistant (which is a program) should have pointed out - unless the insurance agency and Travelocity have an agreement not to disclose this in the virtual agent setting. - Customers choose these online booking agencies so they do not have to deal with third party sales persons - or the hotel - but if this is what Travelocity is expecting - good bye to the Travelocity enterprise.

    I first want to say that I have used Travelocity for years up until recently with no issues. In March of 2020 I booked a flight to Ireland thru them which was cancelled by the airline in March 26th due to shutdown from Covid. I was issued a credit to the airline to use by December of 2021. Great. However it is now April of 2021 and Covid is still ongoing with a time when I don’t feel it is still safe to travel this year. I have been told that I can book by December and travel by March of 2022. I called Travelocity and asked for a refund in March of this year due to not seeing a lot of changes in covid and the spread, all things which are out of my control. I was told they sent a request to the airline which is Aer Lingus and they refused a refund.

    I was told I cancelled my trip March 26th 2020 and couldn’t get a refund. I DIDN’T CANCEL, THE AIRLINE DID AND I HAVE THE EMAIL TO PROVE IT. This has been a nightmare. I would have travelled in 2020 when I could go but again due to an unforeseen pandemic I was unable to. They said the airline has a policy. How could anyone at that time have had a policy for a pandemic. Utterly ridiculous. So it appears I am out $600. I will never use this site again for any travel and in the future will never use third party websites to book my trips. Beware of the fine print my friends.

    I have used Travelocity for years, aggregating all my leisure and work hotel reservations into their system and was always happy. Something terrible has changed in the past few months. There is ZERO ability to cancel a hotel reservation (which is fully cancellable as per terms) online. When you click cancel, a virtual chat box opens which keeps asking the same questions over again. This happens on a desktop, mobile browser and in the app. It never actually cancels your reservation, just keeps asking the same questions and ignoring when you type cancel. And there is ZERO customer service when you call.

    On hold for hours and finally found an electronic telephone option that allowed me to input my itinerary numbers, one key at a time, to cancel. But this wasn't even via the "cancel" option on the phone - it was hidden in another option. In today's world, a fully cancellable booking should be cancellable electronically and it should be as fast and easy - a 10 second click - as making the initial reservation. Shame on them. If I could give them a NEGATIVE RATING, it would be -10.

    I wish to echo several other similar complaints about using credits from covid related cancellations. First I tried by phone. I used the call back option and the call back took 6-10 hours to occur. Then I had to press number 1 to continue and the system did not recognize I was doing that. So hung up in the end. Then I tried by chat. No human online but I was able to make a new flight reservation but only for myself. Not my wife. I had about $1200 credit from my cancelled flight and new flight cost about $700. They told me they would keep the difference and not allow me to use that $500 against any other flights!! I have used Travelocity for years and never had these problems communicating with them. It is obvious that this is quite purposeful as they dont make any money from dealing with rebooking with credits. Except for the leftover which they steal for themselves. I will no longer use them in the future to make any reservations.

    I had to cancel a trip last year due to Covid restrictions, and I wanted to use my travel credit for a new trip. It isn't possible to speak with a Travelocity person on the phone, so I was on a chat for 75 minutes. The upshot is that they tried to charge me $1,100 for a flight that was listed as $295 on their website, and on all other searches I tried. They said there were extra fees due to the restrictions on the original flight (though it was a standard flight, nothing unusual about it). I insisted on speaking with a manager, and now I have to wait 12 hours for someone to respond. I've gone ahead and bought the ticket independently because I was afraid they would be unavailable by the time this gets resolved. Long story short, I think I'm going to lose my entire "credit," because they design the system so it's impossible to use it. They can say you get a travel credit, but you don't actually get one.

    I'm writing this as the clock ticks to hour four of my hold time with Travelocity customer "support". Most businesses operating in the 21st century can provide an automated callback. Not Travelocity. I think the Sears Roebuck Catalog had more sophisticated phone support. The reason I'm on hold in the first place is that Travelocity is attempting to fraud me out of $900 I spent on a flight that was canceled due to COVID. I understand that every business is facing challenges due to a pandemic, but this has been next-level manipulative. Travelocity hasn't even put in the effort to give the mirage that they care about you or your travel. I would feel in better hands buying snake oil from the MyPillow guy.

    Counting the six hours I spent with their chat "support" last night, and the four hours I waited for an American Airlines callback, I've now spent approximately 0.2% of my life dealing with a flight credit that could have been handled in 5-minutes. What a shame. We don't get that time back. I will never book with these predatory frauds ever again, and I advise you to do the same. Google Flights has the exact same functionality.

    The Travelocity website on the price match guarantee link kept taking me to their virtual chatter that you need to go through to get to an agent. The agent said, and here I quote her: "I know that we cannot change or guarantee a price for a flight that had its tickets voided :D" and "How can we guarantee a cancelled flight, sir?" I assume Travelocity's policy is that I not cancel the flight, let Travelocity keep the overcharge and then hope to get the difference back later -- and they keep the overcharge on bookings where the people don't have hours to deal with Travelocity like I did today. That's the best review I can accommodate Travelocity with -- but they will take your money first. Good luck.

I then received an email from Travelocity requesting our passport numbers so that they could finish processing our refund with the airline.

I also purchased a separate travel insurance policy with Nationwide (they won't help). Travelocity refunded the air and shuttle, but not the hotel, even though the hotel emailed me that they had approved my refund. I'm very disappointed and won't use Travelocity again! They stole my money!

    Do not use this third party. The rates look like a good deal, but I'm telling you it is absolutely not worth it. I understand that there is some confusion with processes during COVID-19, but we are now 5 months in and I am still having the same communication issues with this company. It's constantly a "he said she said" excuse between the airline (AerLingus) and Travelocity, first with how I can get a refund (which it turns out I can't get even though there was an international travel ban beyond my control), then how to use the airline credits (which have to be used by August 1st or they are no longer valid... sounds illegal), and what the credits apply to exactly (flights only apparently, no excursions, no hotels, according to Travelocity even though Aer Lingus says this is not the case) and let's not forget that if your new flight costs less than the original you just lose out on that money.

    I have spent WELL OVER 15 hours on the phone with Travelocity. They constantly say one thing and then reveal another hoop I have to jump through. It has been one thing after another with these companies and I can only imagine the amount of money they are scamming off of other people. After hours online and on the phone I'm losing $150, which may sound small, but this is only after I've argued for hours. Otherwise I'd be losing $963. As a part time student and a full time employee, this is not time or money easily replaced. Never again will I book through this company. Never.

    I used Travelocity to make my fight plans in May 2020 and due to COVID19 I was given no choice and had to cancel my flights. Not my choice! If I chose to cancel my flight I would expect to have penalties, but this was NOT my choice. On July 27, 2020, I used my "credit" from May for new flights. The flight is now cheaper and I find out that because flights are cheaper-travelocity gets to keep $250.00. Travelocity did not let me keep the balance for a future flight credit or upgrade this flight. I was just informed that I forfeit the balance. Travelocity used a pandemic to make money--very bad business.

    My friends and I (four couples total) booked flights and took the insurance, so if we had to cancel we would get our money back for the flight. Sadly, we had to cancel because of family members' issues (a death, an elderly dad with health issues and a sister with a fractured bone requiring surgery). We could NOT get a refund but instead only a credit for 24 months. That's not why we took the insurance! And customer service is handled in a foreign country.

    I am frustrated and heart broken by my recent experience with Travelocity. I have a Disney vacation booked for my six year old son and I for July. Unfortunate, due to Covid 19 I have to push back the dates. My flight and hotel was covered and I am not being charged a change or cancellation fee for both, HOWEVER, after HOURS of speaking with a customer rep and her supervisor I was unable to rebook at the Wyndham Garden Lake Buena Vista hotel because they could not see the hotel on their end. This is where it all gets crazy!

    I booked an amazing package deal for round trip flight and hotel stay at the Wyndham for under $700. I obviously have to reschedule my July trip so I call to push back my dates. I’m looking on THEIR WEBSITE and I notice a package deal for exactly what I have in November for $870.00 I request that package and I’m more than happy to pay the difference. Not only does the first rep but the supervisor also claims they do not see that package deal being offered on their site. They state they don’t even see the hotel listed on their site. They quote me an extra fee of $330 at first for my flight and start offering me separate hotel prices for $700 more. Mind you, I’ve paid about $700 for my package and in order to push back my dates I’m being charged $1,000 MORE.

    Clearly, I’m livid and confused. I want a package deal! They both explain they cannot offer me package deal prices because I’ve already brought a package deal. This doesn’t make sense. I can’t travel on those dates because of a worldwide pandemic and I’m covered. Eventually after about 2-3 hours going back and forth she offers me a flight that magically has gone down to $7 extra instead of $330 and the Wyndham magically pops up on her end and is $1,114. To book on the dates I want. At this point, after asking for a package deal price comparable to what I’ve already paid for I decide to cancel my trip.

    Once I cancel I’m told it will take 30 days for my hotel refund to get to me and I can’t get a refund on my airline ticket but I can call Delta with my flight information to see if I can cancel directly with them. So I cancel my trip and proceed to contact Delta where I’m informed I DO NOT have a flight booked with them and there is no record of my flight. I contact Travelocity again and I’m told by a different rep that Travelocity can only rebook my flight because they have my flight information.

    PLEASE MAKE THIS MAKE SENSE!!!!! So I am forced to rebook my flight with them at whatever price they quote me because the flight is, according to them, refundable and they cannot refund my money due to delta policy but delta doesn’t have my information. Now I have to book a hotel stay some way, somehow, paying FULL PRICE instead of a package deal price that I ALREADY had booked. Sadly, my Disney trip has become a burden instead of a joy because it’s incredibly expensive when you don’t book as a package deal. I’m going to shout from the rooftop DO NOT USE TRAVELOCITY. They will not help you if you have an issue traveling.

    Booked a flight SLC to Key West on 1/27/2020 for 3 people to attend a reunion. Covid hit. During March, April, May and June, Travelocity sent regular emails to me professing how much they cared and informing me of the option to cancel. Since we were not traveling until mid June, we did not feel the need to cancel. Again, regular emails from Travelocity. Then on June 11 another family member traveling to the reunion received notice of flight cancellation from Expedia, given a FULL REFUND. Still the only communication from Travelocity was the same "we care" emails. I decided to check our 3 person itinerary on Travelocity on Saturday 6/13 since we were to leave on 6/17. Unfortunately I relied on Travelocity to notify me of changes. On checking the itinerary, there were flags for flight changes both to and from Key West. Still absolutely nothing from Travelocity.

    I called JetBlue (return flight) because the flight had been changed to the following day (25 hour delay). JetBlue shared with me Travelocity was notified of the flight change on MAY 10. JetBlue refunded money. I next tried calling Delta (flight to Key West) and after 2-1/2 hours on hold gave up trying to reschedule connection and was forced to CANCEL that portion on Travelocity. Still waiting for the flight voucher. Spent an additional $1470 all because of Travelocity. I will only deal directly with the airlines in the future, NEVER Travelocity or Expedia.

    If I haven't said this before, I am stating it again. I will NEVER use Travelocity again. I am still on the phone after a Chat on their site this morning and then waiting for over an hour for a 'call back', and now on a call for over 1 hour to obtain a refund due to an airline's cancellation of part of my trip. If I had not 'screen shot' the conversation on Chat, I may not even be this far. They are lying to each other and to me. I am disputing the charges on my card at this time because they will not give me a full refund due to the changes the airline made. What can I do with a one way trip to Seattle? Maybe hitch a ride home when we are done? And I was told that that part of the trip was cancelled as well along with part of the return trip. All that was left was a trip from Seattle to Chicago..

    I purchased a trip to Russia for May 2020. Due to Covid 19, the flight was canceled. My booking with Travelocity disappeared off of their website shortly thereafter and I made dozens of attempts to contact them and get this resolved. Finally, since it was within the 120 day window for credit card protection, I filed a dispute with American Express. I am pleased to state that although American Express took almost 2 months investigating this matter, in the end they did the right thing and refunded my ticket in full.

    I will never use Travelocity for anything ever again. They are unprofessional and unresponsive. A visit to the BBB website will show such a high volume of complaints that they only show a fraction of them. I strongly recommend that you avoid this company.

    On March 11, 2020, on the advice of one of my husband's physicians, I initiated action to cancel our upcoming trip planned for March 28, 2020, for which I had purchased airfare on-line in January using the third party site Travelocity. The itinerary number by which the booking is identified is: **. There is also a Case ID: **. As Travelocity was completely overwhelmed by the Covid-19 situation, their phone message simply stated that they were not accepting phone calls at that time due to the unprecedented volume. However, on March 14th, I was able to complete and submit a refund request on-line. As any follow-up with Travelocity was not possible, I followed up prior to the end of March with Air Transat, the company supplying the service. Transat customer service informed me that they had issued a credit voucher that would expire on April 4, 2022, that Travelocity would in turn process and forward to me.

    Between March 31st and April 27th, I followed up with Travelocity on numerous occasions and was always told that my credit was going to be sent to my email address within 48 hrs. This never happened. On April 27th, 2020, at my wits end, I insisted on speaking with a supervisor at Travelocity. I was transferred to Mustafa – who did finally forward a credit voucher - valid only until March 28, 2021 and subject to numerous conditions. Mustafa also informed me that if I was able to provide appropriate medical documentation explaining why my husband would not be able to travel for an undetermined period of time, this would be forwarded to Air Transat along with a request for reimbursement.

    Obviously, they offer no guarantee that the request will be accepted but they do forward it to whoever is in charge of making these decisions at Air Transat. I did obtain an attestation from my husband's oncologist that he was not authorized to travel and this was forward by email, along with my request for a full reimbursement, to Mustafa on May 1, 2020.

    On May 19th, I followed up with Ahmed at Travelocity who confirmed that my request for a full refund (including seat selection and prepaid baggage allowance fees paid directly to Transat) had been accepted. He also advised that it would take between 7 to 30 days before the refund would appear in my credit card account. Needless to say, I was delighted that I could finally close the file on this one! How misleading Ahmed proved to be.

    On June 9th, as there were still no credits appearing in my credit card account, I once again followed up with Travelocity. The person I spoke with this time in customer service said she could see only my request for reimbursement - which was still pending. At that point, I asked to speak to a supervisor and was transferred to Joe. Joe then explained that my request for reimbursement and the medical attestation by my husband's oncologist had not yet been forwarded to Transat – practically a month and a half after being forwarded. He told me that, in order to activate the process of having Travelocity forward the case to Air Transat, I would have had to phone again after having sent through the documentation.

    In any case, Mustafa had not mentioned this when we spoke on April 27th. Even their automatic response to my email in question made no reference to the need to phone again. As I insisted in having something in writing, on June 9th, Joe forwarded an email stating that my request for a refund with the supporting document had been forwarded to Air Transat and that it could take up to 72 hours to get a response from the airline, following which I should get a response from Travelocity.

    As my husband is presently under treatment for stage 4 kidney cancer, I do feel that we qualify for a full refund from Air Transat. However, after all the disappointments experienced with Travelocity, I have no hope whatsoever that I will ever receive satisfaction and no confidence that I will hear back from Travelocity once the 72 hour deadline is up. Travelocity customer service personnel make a habit of confirming nothing in writing (only after much insistence will a supervisor put anything in writing). Therefore, because everything is done verbally, they cannot be accused of lying. Result: the consumer is left helpless.

    We had to cancel our flight due to COVID and had a credit to use. When restrictions lifted, I called Travelocity to re-book the new flights. The person who answered said she could not assist with this, but I could wait on hold 'for a little while' until someone could help, & she said if we got disconnected, she'd call me back. I waited on hold for 1 hour and 20 minutes... got disconnected. She called me back about 30 mins later & said I'd have to "start all over again/wait another hour +". I politely let her know that I could not do that, and it was they who disconnected the call, so I needed someone who could help to call me back. She said she'd "try", & that I'd need to answer my phone immediately when someone called... they called about 30 mins later and I answered immediately - they hung up. They called right back, I answered IMMEDIATELY - they hung up again. They did not call back again.

    I started the process ALL over again, got a different person, he essentially just said "Sorry" for the previous experience, but clearly just wanted to get on with the call/get off the call. I re-explained what was needed, he said I'd have to wait on hold 1-2 more hours! And he said if I got disconnected, I'd have to start over AGAIN. I let him know how unbelievably frustrating their process is, he said he'd try to connect direct with the airline, etc. At one point when I asked about the "fees" he mentioned, he raised his voice at me and said "To be clear, there are no fees! I meant the price of the new ticket!" (If that's what you meant, then THAT'S the wording you should have used!) Ultimately, after another 55 minutes on the phone, I was told "We can't help you. You'll have to call the airline directly."

    Bottom line is something about their processes/the airline's processes/who has 'control' over the ticket, yada yada yada - I do not work for the airlines so I can't possibly know the inner workings of their somewhat incompatible systems. They should be able to tell me within minutes, the first time we speak, that they are unable to assist. All in all I wasted over 3 hours, & now will have to start again with the airline directly. I will give credit where is due, the 2nd person showed some sympathy for the situation by the end of the call, but I will never, ever, ever use Travelocity again.

    Back in February, we booked a flight so that we could take a trip to meet someone special for the first time. My sisters and I found Travelocity to have a great deal on a flight so we jumped on it right away. When COVID - 19 hit we canceled the flight for our March trip. Travelocity was helpful and gave us a credit for our flight. On May 23, last week, we decided to go ahead and use the credit to rebook the flight. When we looked, we found the price to be a $100 less than the original flight. With three of us traveling, this would leave us with a credit of $300 and some change. When we spoke to Travelocity, they notified us that we would not receive any credit back for the remainder. We decided it was ok because we had originally paid more but this trip was worth it. After the new flight was booked with Travelocity, we received our new itinerary but we received our old E-Tickets. This phone call took 2 hours.

    On May 24th, Feeling confused, we called them back the next day. When we told them of their mistake, they apologized and told us that they would re-issue. This phone call took 1.5 hours. On May 25th, We had to call again. The new tickets issued were again the same old flight with the new itinerary. They again apologized and we asked to speak to a supervisor. They re-issued them again and we were even able to select our seats. We asked them if they could stay on the phone while we waited to see if it was correct. They assured us that everything was fixed and the new tickets would be the correct ones but that the new tickets could take up to 24-48 hours to process. This phone call took 3.5 hours.

    May 26, nothing yet. May 27, Tickets arrived. Still wrong. Same problem. It was my sisters birthday so I didn't wasn't feeling up to getting frustrated so I didn't call that day. Even though it did weigh on me that day. May 29, After I finished my work that morning, my dad and I sat down to call Travelocity. I waited on hold for 2.5 hours until someone answered and I was able to tell my story. She put me on hold for another hour and then someone else came on and we had to tell the story again. We asked to speak to a supervisor and were put on hold again. Every 30 minutes the sales rep (who was very nice) continued to check in with us apologizing for the wait.

    When we received the supervisor another 2 hours had passed and we had to retell our story. After the supervisor checked our account she apologized and told us that it was a problem with their ticketing dept. She then put us on hold again and then came back to say that we needed to pay more in order to get the tickets. We asked her why that was our fault. We told her that we had originally reserved the flight through them on the 23rd of May. She said that there was no way to get the tickets unless each passenger paid $87 dollars more. Feeling frustrated we told her that it needed to be fixed and that it was not our problem. She then said that she would connect us to her supervisor.

    After 1.5 hours,she connected us to United Airlines. That was confusing. We spoke to a very kind man who gave us the same information. He apologized and told us that our problem needed to be worked out with Travelocity. We were done!!!! We will NEVER use Travelocity again!!!! When we got off the phone, we called United Airlines directly and were able to use our credit. We were very kindly treated and the process took 30 minutes to complete.

    My boyfriend and I are both young and able to adapt when needed so I figured it wouldn’t be too inconvenient to book with Travelocity. We did this knowing that any part of our trip would be difficult to change so we decided to try to save some money. Then the pandemic hit. Ok no big deal, we bought the insurance anyway. Not wanting to go to Hawaii during this virus, we decided to cancel our July trip in March. Turns out, they wouldn’t even take my call until a week before the trip. I tried calling after looking online and finding out I can’t use the insurance on the website and would have to call. If I just cancelled the trip online we’d be out half the cost of the hotel. So this would be hanging over our head for two months.

    Mid May I decided to try to call again and they actually took my call. Well, more so than last time. Instead of just informing me that my trip was too far away for the call to be taken, I was put on hold. Forever. The same crappy music for hours. This is after I spent so long on the website trying so hard to find a way to cancel the trip and just get the money back. I gave up calling for now and had my boyfriend call. They took his call after about a half hour and once he finally talked to a representative, she told him she was pulling up his itinerary and then she hung up on him. Overall this was a very stressful experience during a very stressful time and will never be using travelocity again.

    Another note: travelocity has the same deals as every other travel website like it. If you leave the page and go back to it, the cheap deals will be “gone” because they were “bought.” I’d go to that website again with a different device sometime later and suddenly those same cheaper deals are there. I think it’s a scummy thing to do, to trick customers into thinking they have to buy quick because the trip is so high in demand.

    On top of all this, I do not recommend Travelocity because their app is hard to use and navigate to find things you need, as well as all the asterisks and small print that reveals so many things. I did not feel good about making a reservation through a third party service when it says in small print at the bottom of the page “these room requests have been passed on to the hotel but they will not be confirmed and are subject to availability at the time of check-in”. Does that mean there’s a chance I paid for a hotel that might not have a place available and I won’t receive a confirmation that my room has actually been reserved? The whole process is stressful and not worth it. Not happy with how this company has handled the pandemic.

    I was a loyal Travelocity customer for years but now they've lost my business due to their shady business practices. I booked a round-trip Emirates flight, Chicago to Dubai, April 5th-20th.

It was cancelled due to the Covid 19 pandemic but I was relieved to see that Emirates offered full refunds (minus any service fees and taxes) for customers of any Emirates flights that were impacted by the crisis.

    Incredulously, after I applied for the refund from Travelocity, they denied my refund and went a step further and tried to deflect the blame to Emirates Airlines, insinuating that Emirates denied the refund! I personally called and chatted with Emirates several times who confirmed that Travelocity "was misinformed" but Travelocity still insists they are following Emirates terms and conditions (wrong) and will not process a refund. This is outrageous behavior and I will continue to do everything I can to get my rightful refund.

Only to start receiving several other emails to cancel again and again and again - instead of have just one CANCEL button, they try to make it more difficult so that you miss something and your refund will be forfeited.

    I also purchased the Travelocity insurance at the time of booking and should have had zero problems with all of this but it has been a nightmare and is still unresolved. They have kept me on hold - not just at the point of calling, no, upon an agent answering (a supervisor supposedly) and telling me she is going to look into it and then 1 hour and 30 some minutes later the call disconnects and I have to begin again.

    It is May 12, 2020, and due to the pandemic (covid19), I don't get to go on this trip but I also apparently don't get our trip expense savings back either. Their continued message loop states you can get on social media as well to help resolve during the pandemic.... except for that is a deceptive fallacious bunch of nonsense too!

Unfortunately due to the pandemic the graduation ceremony was canceled and made a virtual ceremony instead. I called immediately and was told that if the hotel the Altoona Grand Hotel would approve the refund Travelocity would refund me. I spoke with the hotel and they approved the refund. Travelocity the told me they changed the protocol and would only give me a voucher for the same hotel at a later date. Since it was only needed for the cancelled graduation that is valueless to me. Shame on Travelocity. How can you be so heartless during such difficult times. Beware anyone thinking of booking a trip through them. I’d use another vendor.

    I paid for flight for my student daughter from France to Hawaii (home) from study abroad May 2, 2020. Travelocity will not refund or give credit. The flight was cancelled due to COVID 19, and my daughter had to return immediately, ordered by her school and President Trump. Travelocity will only offer us credit to Condor Airlines, which we would never use again because we are not in Europe, nor going there. They will not give us a refund or even a Travelocity Credit even though it was purchased by them from me and even though I purchased their travel insurance who I have e-mailed and called repeatedly and receive no responses. Travelocity keeps insisting that we need to wait to hear from the travel insurance but we started e-mailing and calling the travel insurance over a month ago. Their travel insurance I feel is a fraud.

    Booked flights months ago through Travelocity and paid for them through Travelocity on Air Canada. Flights were apparently canceled although I was never notified they were canceled and found it only when I went to enter my passport information in my booking and found my booking had disappeared and it was marked “canceled".

    Tried to reach Air Canada who are not accepting phone calls except within 72 hours of travel. Contacted “customer service” (that’s certainly a misnomer) at Travelocity for a refund per the United States Department of Transport Order dated on April 3, 2020 that Airlines, foreign or domestic, had to refund canceled flights that were canceled due to COVID-19. Travelocity has emailed me that they refused to refund, violating federal order. They never even bothered to notify me that the flight had been canceled in the first place. If you want to use a travel agency definitely do not use Travelocity. Perhaps, may be better to book directly with the airline.

    We made reservations through Travelocity for a trip to South Florida in Mid-March. Due to the high incidence of coronavirus in South Florida our doctor insisted that we cancel our trip. The hotel charged us a cancel fee of $186 and told me that they had no choice as due to Travelocity rules. When I spoke to Travelocity customer service, they said was up to the hotel and not them. Given the worldwide crisis due to Coronavirus, I fully expected for Travelocity to refund my cancel charge. They will not. Never use Travelocity again, and nor should anyone else.

    I booked two tickets to Greece for August. Due to Covid, I will be unable to travel, especially since I am a senior (will be 65 in May). I was unable to send an email or get anyone from Travelocity on the phone. I was unable to get any info on virtual chat to cancel the flights and to get any information regarding credits. By the way, the virtual chat, at one point, asks you if you would rather speak to an agent, If you click yes, you are informed that no one is available, go and and that you should go and start all over again. When you get to the same page as before, you are asked if you want to speak to an agent again. There is no button to say no, to continue. You are stuck on a loop.

    To only respond to those that have flights in the next 72 hours, indicates the level they hold anyone who has purchased anything from them. It may seem that you are getting a bargain by booking with them. That is until something goes wrong. Then you are unable to get a hold of them. Maybe they are just waiting for airlines to go bust, so they can wash their hands of everything. Due to the way they treat customers, I also hope they aren't eligible to get a bailout.

    I have been a longtime user of Travelocity, and am extremely disappointed in how the company is dealing with cancellations due to the Covid-19 restrictions that are being placed upon U.S. citizens. I live in California and had planned a trip to London between April 22 and May 5, 2020. I reserved and paid for two reservations for The London Lodge Hotel, to coincide with the beginning and ending of my trip.

    I paid extra for the "free cancellation" option Travelocity offered but once I printed out the rules and restrictions page, it stated that the room type and rate were non-refundable. This was not disclosed anywhere on the Travelocity website; it was only disclosed after I made the purchase. How does "free cancellation" work on a non-refundable room, and why would anyone pay extra for "free cancellation" if the room is non-refundable? I have tried to speak with someone at Travelocity but have not been able to reach anyone by phone. I will never use Travelocity again.

    So, after spending hours on hold and working with different representatives from both Travelocity and Easirent, we finally have a refund coming directly from Travelocity. I can’t say that it was easy to achieve resolution, and we lost our first full vacation day to dealing with customer service, but in the end we are satisfied with Travelocity and how they handled matters. Thanks for working with us to resolve the nightmare that was Easirent.

    SCAM, Avoid at all costs!!! We booked and paid extra for an SUV rental about a month or so in advance using Travelocity and when we got there after a long flight they informed us that the SUVs were all sold out and we would have to cram our family into an old, dingy, dirt filled Nissan Versa subcompact. They also told us that we can have a refund on our rental but we need to call Travelocity. Travelocity denied our refund stating that they contacted Easirent and they said we were a no show, however we were there in person, on time and spoke to an employee there who told us that we will have a refund, no questions asked. My family and I were stranded without a rental car, in a city far away from home, with a 20 month old baby. Not what I call easy. Thank god for Ace rental up the street, they gave us a brand new Nissan Kicks with only 17 miles on it.

    I would start by saying that Travelocity needs to get their stuff together, be more responsible for their actions. On January 2020, I purchased a trip to Lofoten, Norway, departing on January 20th, only to learn that, I would be required to stay in Iceland for 24 hours, departing on the 22nd, making me miss my other 3 connection flights to Oslo, Bodo, then Leknes all booked for the 21st of January. Icelandair was kind enough to change my flight at no charge, as they could see that Travelocity wasn't very responsible, actually were out of the Loop on this one...

    Then on February 13th I again flew to Brasil, Toronto to St. Paulo GRU, then to Belo Horizonte,; on my way back, on February 17th, my ticket was from Belo Horizonte to Sao Paulo, Congonhas, but my connection to the Toronto flight was in GRU, which is the airport the ticket should be sending me to. I contacted Travelocity about it on February 16th at almost midnight to have it changed, but was told it would be not a problem as the Airport is only 35 minutes away driving. Of course it is not. You would be lucky enough to make it in two hours, as the person or Travelocity obviously never been or driven in Sao Paulo, probably one of the busiest cities in the world.

    Why would Travelocity send me to Congonhas, instead of Guarulhos, where my Toronto flight would depart from? There were flights from Latam to Guarulhos that day. Actually the airline after much insistence, was able to change my flight and agreed that I wouldn't perhaps make the Toronto flight, if they hadn't changed it... After several mistakes and mishaps, it's time to say goodbye to Travelocity, I've been a loyal client for 20 years, but can't take these type of risks any longer, they create stress, anxiety, flying is about to relax, to have fun, not to be stressed.

    Last November purchased flights to Paris, only to be told that maybe we wouldn't fly that day, as Air Canada oversells their planes and if we're lucky then we would have a seat. The same happened in August 2018 on a flight to Amsterdam also by Air Canada. The point is, we pay full prices on these tickets. Travelocity should inform the clients that, "You're paying full price, but perhaps you will not fly, as we oversell tickets as requested by Air Canada." Ultimately Travelocity isn't doing a good job as a Travel operator. I am copying these to Social Media, and to make people aware that ultimately, Travelocity doesn't care about its clients. Ultimately it's all about the bottom line, making money and obtain profits at all costs. Sincerely, Daniel **.

    On February 4, 2020 I called Travelocity to book a flight from Seattle to Boston using a credit from a previously cancelled flight through their services. After approximately 30-40 minutes on hold a gentleman answered and collected my information. After placing me on hold several times throughout the conversation, he verified dates of travel, conditions of credit including my knowledge & acceptance of $200 penalty and came up with an acceptable travel itinerary.

    He then proceeded to tell me that he was unable to process the transaction and would need to transfer me to his Manager to complete. I was transferred to "Mary". After several holds, she also verified all of my information & conditions of travel. She continued to put me on hold, although at this point I was very confused as to why. When she would return she would again verify some piece of information but she had also changed the flight times or the name of the penalty fee, never quite telling me what the final charges would be - this happened several times during our conversation.

    I became very frustrated at this point and asked why it was necessary to put me on hold so many times and requested that we book the flight as I had been on the phone with the company for over an hour and had already agreed upon an itinerary & penalty conditions with the first agent. She replied that my cancellation flight had happened over a year ago. (July 2019) I pointed out that my paperwork had an expiration date of June 9, 2020 and that I was well within that time frame. She then proceeded to ask me more questions about the flight upon where I completely lost my patience, lashed out and hung up.

    This should have been a very simple transaction, but I felt as though the agent was deliberately stalling in an attempt to frustrate and waylay me. I've flown a multitude of times over the years. Occasionally an issue where a cancelled flight and credit would come up but I have never experienced this sort of subterfuge before. It felt very deceptive. I have since booked my flight with an actual airline. It cost less and took no time at all.

    If you use Travelocity to compare hotel rates for the city you plan to visit, BEWARE. They do not include the often very substantial "property fees". When you go to book through Travelociy, you may or may not see the tiny, grayed out line item when you reserve your room, but you'll definitely see it on your bank statement. If you use Travelocity at all, I would recommend finding properties there and then going to the provider's site to book your stay.

    First, I picked a specific car I was wanting to drive. When I arrived the Rental company said "There is no guarantee you will get what you asked for. As a matter of fact, we don't even have any of those cars." Second, Travelocity's website implied their collision coverage was "walk away" insurance, meaning if I caused damage to the car or there was any damage by any means, I could just turn the car in and walk away. The rental company said that wasn't true. If there was damage, the rental company would keep my $250 deposit and file against my own auto insurance policy and I would have to pay my $1000.00 deductible and apply to Travelocity for reimbursement. So I purchased an actual "walk away" policy from the rental company and Travelocity refused to refund the funds for their misrepresentation.

    We booked a multi-city trip for the holidays, but two days after booking had to change the travel date for the final flights. Their website just gave errors when any change was attempted, so we called and they manually changed it, but they did the ticketing wrong which we found out when we couldn't check-in online. We spent over 6 hours on the phone, just hours before departure, trying to fix it, all the while unsure if we would even be able to fly. After 3 calls and escalating during each, a manager finally succeeded, but after we got home found out we were charged hundreds of dollars for the difference in the ticket price between the original ticketing date and the date when they fixed it - these unauthorized charges overdrafted our bank account.

    Another 4 hours on the phone and the best the representatives would do was refund the last obviously invalid charge, but they kept phrasing any refund as a concession and gift, implying Travelocity did nothing wrong in the ticketing, and said it was only the airline's "claim" that the ticket was wrong. They implied the problems must have been our fault, and they refused to compensate us for the overdraft fees the charges caused. It didn't help that of the 13 (yes, 13) agents we spoke to during a total of 6 calls, only two could speak English decently, and we had to ask them to repeat half of what they said.

    I booked through Travelocity at a hotel in Montgomery, Al while traveling from Florida to Michigan. We chose this hotel for the indoor pool and hot tub, so we could relax after driving all day. There was an option of pay now or when you get to your hotel. We chose to.pay when we got there. Apparently, this nullifies their guarantee to make things right for you if you encounter problems with the hotel. Nowhere on their site do they tell you this. After arriving, checking in, and going to the pool, we find that the hot tub isn't working, and the indoor pool is not heated and is freezing!

    Asked for compensation at the hotel because it was too late to move all 3 rooms to a different hotel. Nope. You booked through a 3rd party so we aren't responsible to do anything for you. Contacted Travelocity. Nope. You chose to pay at the hotel, so we don't have to do anything for you. Spent 3 hours with crying children, and very unhappy adults because we had all looked forward to swimming and relaxing in the hot tub before bed.

    NEVER NEVER NEVER use Travelocity again. I called Travelocity before booking to confirm I could change flight as I had to fly for family emergency and expected I would have to change return date. They said no problem, but there would be a $150 fee. After flying one way, I called to change the return date. I was left on hold for 4 hours occasionally with an agent saying they were working on it. Now they say my ticket didn't allow changes, and but they could cancel the return leg of my flight and issue me with a one way ticket to "help" me. The price of this "help" was much more expensive than for me to book a full one way fare with a much better airline. So I decided to call again.

    After being put on hold for at least 2 hours on two more occasions I was told they would find a way to change the flight and get back to me. Finally, I got an e-mail back two days later, which was AFTER the original and rescheduled flights had already left, thanking me for contacting them, and giving me a phone number I could call to make the change. Luckily I already paid and booked another airline to get home, but costing me over $900 to do. After getting home I called several times to see if I could get any refund and each time was given the same runaround. In fact, after waiting an hour, the call connected to the original airline (whom Travelocity themselves said would not be able to help as I booked through them) to get a recorded message to say their office was closed.

Also, I found out later that I would have saved a lot of money by calling the hotel directly but that’s on me for not verifying Travelocity’s bogus “deal” so neither of those two things is the source of my complaint. I can afford a more expensive room and I understand that mistakes happen. My complaint is that, in addition to all that, the “help line” people do not appear to be there to help but to keep putting you on hold till your vacation is over and you give up (they literally kept us on hold for most of the 2 miserable hours of what Travelocity calls “help”). My wife and her two older lady friends were stuck standing in a cold, dark parking lot outside the closed hotel while the Travelocity “help” personnel said it wasn’t their fault and to call the hotel because it wasn’t their fault that the vacancy they advertised and took our money for didn’t exist.

    Even worse than all of that (if that’s possible), they were worse than moderately incompetent at finding an alternative room). Even after asking for a supervisor, that "supervisor" said that this wasn’t their fault and that there was not a good replacement hotel near where we wanted to be. She was apparently trying to get us to accept a much lower class accommodation (she suggested a distant hotel that was on the order of a Motel Six ostensibly to save Travelocity the expense of a more expensive last minute reservation that would be a fair equivalent).

    We found her claim that the Holiday Inn Express (which is no palace but would have provided a nice warm place to sleep which sounded pretty good right then) had no available rooms like the one we'd reserved back in August. We discovered that to be a lie by 1) seeing the availability on the public Holiday Inn website via a cell phone (even while the "supervisor" continued to say it wasn't there), 2) by ultimately reserving said room despite Travelocity continuing to slow us down and resisting progress by repeatedly leaving us on hold for progressively longer periods...Ostensibly hoping we would freeze to death or accept a dump replacement room and 3) when arriving at the hotel there were plenty of other similar rooms available at that hotel even though the Travelocity rep continued to tell three women in a cold parking lot that there was "no room at the inn".

    (Yes, that's a seasonal reference, one that highlights how wrong it is to try and take advantage of a stranded woman in the cold rather than helping.) Honest mistakes happen to everybody and there are good companies that provide competent people who really try to make things right when they make a mistake. Travelocity is not one of those companies.

    I booked several flights for a family trip and later we needed to change the dates. Ended up taking around two and a half hours on the phone, including being put on hold around 8 times and disconnected once. Eventually ended up talking to someone from corporate who said something to the effect of “Consider yourself lucky, some people are on the phone with us for six hours”. LOL.

    Honestly, I am just disgusted with the way Travelocity does business!! If I could give zero stars I would! In August of 2019 we booked three hotel rooms at the Holiday Inn & Suites in Ft. Lauderdale 12-1-19/12-6-19 for a one week Motorola training event. The middle of October the event was moved to a different location so I called Travelocity to cancel the reservations. The Travelocity agent said there would be no refund issued because the hotel is negotiating cancellations. I asked what does that mean because all hotels cancel reservations. I was told that the hotel would not give a refund so I would lose the entire $2800 that I paid. They said that they have nothing to do with the no refund policy and that I would need to call the hotel.

    When I called the hotel I was told that they offer refunds and that it was Travelocity's policy not to refund reservations. This is poor business practice and robbery. I have owned my business for over 34 years and I assure you that I do not do business this way or I wouldn't still be in business. I will be sure that I take advantage of every opportunity to tell everyone I know and meet about this experience to ensure that they NEVER use Travelocity.

    Hotel Booking Plus is a scam, I tried to change a booking thinking that I paid extra to have the option of changing a hotel booking months in advance. Received no help from Travelocity who brushed me off on the Hotel and then a third party insurance company. You must read the fine print, do not pay for the Protection Plus.

    I paid for 3 first class flights from Houston to Campeche, Mexico totally approximately $4,000.00. My itinerary showed Business Class from IAH to MX and COACH from Mexico City to Campeche. I called Travelocity and told them that I could fly Coach for $400.00 each ticket totaling $1,200 and wanted a refund for paying 1st class and not getting it. They told me they would request a refund from Delta but they couldn’t request it until after my trip. They gave me a $200 coupon to use for future travel.

    When I called Travelocity after my flight they told me that I should have known what I paid for and they could not request a refund. That I accepted $200 and that’s the refund. That was ridiculous because the $200 coupon was for my trouble of having to call Travelocity and go through many agents until someone finally told me to take the trip and then they’d request a refund. THEY TOTALLY LIED. As long as you dont need their help they are fine but the minute you have a problem they tell you what you want to hear and dont care about lying because they already have your money. You’ve been warned. Take your business elsewhere!

    I booked a hotel in Santa Barbara 3 weeks before our trip. Location was the most important thing for us as we were traveling by train with no car to get around. When we got to the hotel they had no reservations for us. They managed to get us a room for the first night but were booked solid on night two. I called Travelocity and they spoke to the manager who explained their reservations were never pushed through to him so they never received it. Travelocity found us a room for night two but it was way out of town and not at all what we would have chosen. They basically ruined our weekend away. I will never use a Travelocity again.

    I recently researched a Canadian hotel through Travelocity. The Canadian Price, in Canadian Dollars was reasonable. However, at some point, I wound up on the U.S. site, -- unbeknownst to me -- and therefore was charged in US Dollars, bumping up my cost by $50.00. Did not see that until my credit card bill came in. As I have an obvious Canadian email address, and an account with Travelocity.ca, I think it is poor business practice that the company did not inform me of my mistake. Amazon.com ALWAYS informs me that I might prefer to go through Amazon.ca. When I called Travelocity.com, the supervisor refused a credit. Buyer beware!

    I purchased two tickets to Barcelona. I was informed by Travelocity in an email that my ticket was canceled. Weirdly, only my ticket, not my partner's. The email went on to offer me two options to change my outgoing flight. It made no mention of my return flight. I called and spoke to an agent who said I was able (and therefore my partner was also) to cancel our reservations since the new outgoing flight options changed our wait time in Dublin from 2 hours to 12. I said I wanted to discuss with my partner. I called back and stated we wanted to cancel both reservations. After a wait of 40 minutes I was told my reservation was canceled but my partner's was not because the problem was with my return flight! My return was different than my partner's. This was not mentioned in the email I received.

    Their resolution was my partner would keep the same reservation and I could make a new one. There was no concern that this would cost me more since I was booking later. While on hold I visited the site of the airline providing the service and found shorter and less expensive options. You are not getting the best deal you can find through Travelocity. A little extra time on the internet to visit airline sites will find better deals. Expedia – owns Travelocity, Orbitz, CheapTickets, Hotwire and eBookers. I suggest you stay away from all of them.

    This has been the worst experience I have EVER had with a travel agency/booking website! I personally will NEVER use Travelocity ever again!! I would rather pay hundreds of dollars more on a different site or with the airline directly to avoid the possibility of an issue with booking the ticket and having to rely on the Travelocity representatives to fix the issue.

    I had two letters in my middle name that were inverted, so I needed to have it changed to match my passport. I was told repeatedly by Travelocity that its policy for fees/charges for name corrections was that it would charge whatever the airline required. In this case, a typical name correction for the airline I booked with would cost $130 per name. However, the airline had an exception for minor mistakes which stated, "[i]f you've made a small spelling mistake with your name, get in touch with us and we'll correct this free of charge, up to 3 characters per name." Because my middle name had two inverted letters, I was told directly by the airline that this exception would apply in my case. Therefore, in accordance with Travelocity's policy of following the airline's policy for this issues, I should not be charged by Travelocity for the change.

    However, when I called Travelocity and eventually was transferred to the correct department, the Travelocity representative "called" the airline to check the policy, and the representative told me that it would be $130. After trying to correct this discrepancy, I called to confirm that Travelocity actually called to confirm the policy, and the airline representative told me that no Travelocity representative had actually called to confirm the policy. I interpreted this to mean that the Travelocity representative had LIED to me about checking the policy, and they just wanted to collect the fee and not actually help me. Thankfully, after calling many more times, it was later confirmed that subsequent Travelocity representatives had called in response to my many inquiries about this issue. However, the discrepancy was still not being corrected.

    I finally tried to find other solutions by asking if I could do a three-way call with the airline representative and Travelocity representative. The initial Travelocity representative said that it was not allowed, but the name change Travelocity representative said that we could do this. After an hour long three-way call with the airline representative and Travelocity representative, the Travelocity representative was finally told the correct information, and I was given the name change for free.

    Although the issue was finally resolved, all of this should not have been necessary. I should not have had to take over 6 hours of my own time to make these phone calls, and my own extreme hard work to get this issue resolved. Travelocity representatives should be there to advocate for and assist their customers in the best way possible. Unfortunately, my impression was that the Travelocity representative simply wanted to get the easy answer and get off the phone instead of working hard to resolve the problem. I am extremely disappointed in Travelocity's willingness to help its customers and diligence in finding the correct answer. For these reasons I will never use Travelocity again.

    I booked a room at Sleep Inn in SeaTac following a hike in the area. The air conditioner was non-functional the whole night, not providing any relief to the muggy, stifling heat. I called the front desk about it twice throughout the night, to which they offered to bring a fan (which would have done nothing to improve the situation). The next morning, I confronted them at the desk in person about my negative experience as I had gotten no meaningful rest the whole night. They were dismissive and outright lied about having offered to come inspect the unit, which never was mentioned. I refused their offer of the fan because I wasn't in the mood to be slowly dehydrated.

    They sent a maintenance man at that point, and we accompanied him to the room. He lied again saying the air conditioner was working, even though we were standing right there and it was weakly blowing air. Not bringing the temperature down even a little. They reported these lies to Travelocity who stood behind their judgment and refused to offer compensation for the absurd conditions of their room. I will never book through Travelocity again and I recommend no one else either.

    I booked a cruise on the Mariner of the Seas, Royal Caribbean, through Travelocity, for July 15-19th, 2019. My wife and I sat down together to do this, because she had certain concerns regarding room location and meal times. When we booked the cabin and meal plan we booked a stateroom on the front, mid-upper level of the ship and requested "My Time" dining program. We double checked our online request and everything appeared fine. However, when we arrived at the ship, we found we were located at the second lowest level of the ship and we were assigned a dinner time of 8:30 p.m. My wife freaked out about the location, because she has a fear of closed in spaces. Royal Caribbean could not help us out with this because they were at capacity. Additionally, we had prepaid the gratuities, through Travelocity, a week before we set sail.

    My wife was on the phone with Travelocity for an hour and a half (place on hold) just to get an answer regarding payment of the gratuities. However, when we went to disembark from the ship we had a $232.00 bill for gratuities from Royal Caribbean. We showed them we had prepaid through Travelocity, but it took over an hour to settle this matter, when I should have just been able to disembark with my family without incident. To cap off this mess, I just contacted my credit card company and Royal Caribbean still hasn't dumped the gratuities charges, so I had to spend another half hour with my credit card folks submitting information to fight this charge. Fortunately I have a paper copy from the boat with this information. The best I can figure is Royal Caribbean and Travelocity systems conflicted and we got bumped out of our site because we went through Travelocity.
