    Chose "bargain fare" from their website while doing two things at once. Followed through with reservation, San Francisco to Maui round-trip. The bargain fare gives no information prior to booking on the flight times, number of stops, airline or seating choice. Big mistake for me. Called Travelocity immediately and they, after two calls and 40 minutes on hold, could do nothing on a flight over three months away. No cancellation, no credits, no substitutions, no refunds---period. I would have gladly re-booked at the time but no option. This is by far the worst on-line experience I have ever had. Re-booking has cost me over $1,000. That option should never have been on their website to begin with. I have utilized Travelocity 50 times in the past but never again.

    What is more disgusting with them is upon cancellation it was said that I can be refunded 5-7 business days but it's been 2 weeks that I'm still waiting for refund! It even costed me more money because flight tickets since then became even more expensive! Besides, when I call the customer service the agent just told me "Don't worry you will be refunded." What does that mean? Of course I will be refunded but I don't want to be refunded only make it faster! Though I'm still waiting for to be refunded... They are not "trustable". I will never buy any tickets from Travelocity and share my complaints to everyone who attempts to buy tickets from them. So, if you consider to buy any tickets from them, just abandon the idea and find some other agency.

    Horrific experience! Our wedding was October 27th of 2012. We asked our guests for Travelocity gift certificates to hopefully enjoy a honeymoon. We received a total of six gift certificates for a total of $575.00. Obviously not having enough money to travel with, I placed these gift certificates in my safe for future use. When I tried to redeem them on October 7th 2015, Travelocity says that they are expired! Yet none of them show an expiration date. In fact they say these are equivalent to cash and to safeguard them accordingly.

    For the past three days I have spoken to everybody in India and have been sent numerous pre formed e-mails explaining how they are not responsible for my expired gift certificates. Not to mention the fact that they no longer offer this type of program. Travelocity's legal defense office is based in Las Vegas, Nevada. Along with a telephone number which tells you it is out of service. This tells me that they must be listed as a LLC company and therefore I am screwed out of my $575.00 in wedding gifts. THANKS TRAVELOCITY! Travelocity is a SCAM! Review your options before you decide to book with an online travel company! For some reason they all seem to have a one star rating on ConsumerAffairs. Which by the way is the worst and most dissatisfied rating.

    I travel a lot but this company is the worst of the worst. I bought a flight ticket and an insurance. I had an emergency and I could not travel. I called them and they said our emergency insurance does not cover your case. It does not really cover much anyway. So I had to cancel the ticket and get credit. Then I had to travel to somewhere. I called to get a ticket. Then I found they have given me different dates than what I wanted. I called again - they said "we are sorry but we cannot do anything about it." The best part is that I had to pay extra $300 just to change my flight. Somewhere else I found a ticket for the same price. So, I ended up paying $700 for a ticket that does not cost more than $300 if I went with other companies. I am very unhappy with their service and I do not wish anyone go through what I went...

    I booked hotel space on 9/29 via Travelocity Website, and received a "Hot Hotel Deals" email today, 10/8. The price of the same room booked on 9/29 was discounted by $18 per room night. I called twice to see how to request an amended price. The last call told me that the guarantee price was based on a 24 hour window, from the time I booked. The customer service rep kept telling me that I wasn't eligible for a price match due to company policy, but couldn't tell me where the policy was stated on the website. All I know is that I'm not going to get the price match and there is no room for discussion, end of story. I have since unsubscribed, as this is not the only issue I've had with Travelocity.

    I booked a trip for my daughter & I to go visit my mother in CT. When I printed the boarding passes, they were completely different flights! When I called (the first time) they just told me that American Airlines has been making a lot of changes! And why I was never connected... well according to Travelocity it was the airline's fault! But, it gets worse... I wanted to cancel the hotel since I would not need to stay in one with the new tickets. The rep put me on hold and never came back to the phone. So I called back and talk to somebody that sounded like the same person that I had talk to the first time and once again said "I have to have you on the line when I call the hotel to cancel your reservation," and once again I was on hold! This is the last time I will ever use this company.

    WARNING: TRAVELOCITY IS A SCAM!!! If anyone is considering travel in the near future, I got stung badly by an online agent - Travelocity. I was directed to the site using an Australian Google when searching for Australian domestic flights. They guaranteed to be the cheapest. After accepting a quote, I received an itinerary by email AFTER payment occurred... Suddenly then being informed the quote was in US currency. The problem occurs when you book through their mobile website, which, unlike their full website, doesn't display any information about the currency you are being priced at. Out of pocket several hundred dollars, and not happy.

    Even after spending 2 hours on the phone with them on an international call at cost to me, I was prepared to provided photo evidence of how a booking occurs using their mobile website where it doesn't show the currency anywhere, but the company isn't interested in seeing my evidence and claims it's not their responsibility, and that I should have known they are American... Mind you, they deal internationally worldwide and offer Domestic flights within Australia. Why would anyone in any country presume they are American??? They are refusing to issue a refund.

    I tried to reserve a flight. They sent me an email stating that the ticket had not been process yet. That they would send me a confirmation in 24 hrs once they would talk to the airlines. The next email never came. I tried calling and getting them to change the ticket but they said that the 24 hrs had expired (even if the ticket was not confirmed via email). I needed to change it since my husband had an emergency procedure and I had to move my flight 2 days. They made them wait for over an hour, only to say no and to give ridiculous excuses as to why they did not send another email confirming the ticket. They claimed it was the customer's responsibility to look at the online itinerary after 24 hrs. Though it does NOT state that on the email. How sad that this company that once was great is now AWFUL. DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY. BEWARE!

    Worst travel experience ever and it wasn't even MY travel experience. My mother was visiting me in CA from the midwest when she became ill. We spent 12 hours in the ER and they found her to have a fairly serious illness but didn't need to admit her. However, the doctor did say she should not travel until her infection clears up. So, we tried to change her itinerary online at Travelocity, but there was no way to do it, at least no clear way. I called 4 times, gave all the information at least 2 times for each call and finally on the 4th call asked for a manager. I was on hold waiting for a manager for nearly an hour.

    Meanwhile I looked online to check out Travelocity's review... BAD,BAD, BAD!!! Mostly 1 star, mostly customer service related due to changes or mistakes Travelocity had made, most either unresolved or people waiting months for a refund. Many were on the phone for hours at a time with customer service and various managers.

    I got cut off 3 times and when I finally did reach Anna **, a manager, she informed me that the insurance my mother purchased so that she would be able to change her flight if she needed to stay longer was only for health reasons (which of course this was) and that we needed a letter from the attending physician to submit to the insurance company and then maybe we would get a refund, otherwise it would cost us $200 for the change.

    Finally, after explaining to this manager that the whole reason for buying flight insurance was to avoid this hassle she said that the policies come from the airlines. I said if they knew this was the policy they ought to make it clear when a person is purchasing the insurance, she said, "I don't know." I gave up and told her to cancel the current flight home for my mom and book a new one for several days out. She was about to put me on hold to get me an agent and I said "no way", I am not going to be on hold again and that she needed to book the flight herself right then. She argued a bit then the line went silent. I waited and asked a couple times if she were still there and finally she said she was and then rather irritatedly told me she was arranging the new flight. DO NOT USE TRAVELOCITY, THEY ARE UNHELPFUL AT BEST AND DOWNRIGHT DISHONEST AT WORST.

    I booked a round trip flight from Boston to Orlando, Florida in June to be sure I could be in the airport with my children and grandchildren. A month later, Delta changed my flight to an ungodly hour. I had to scramble to find a flight leaving Boston at the same time as my original flight. Delta did not have a plane leaving Boston for Orlando at that time. I switched to Jet Blue (I was not ever given this option when I originally booked.). The cost was a hundred dollars more without baggage fees! They would not refund the cost of the difference!

    I booked a flight with cancellation insurance. The travel plans had to be changed, due to business circumstances out of our control. When I called to switch the flights, I was told the cancellation insurance only covers instances of medical emergencies, nothing else. After 90 minutes of wrangling, they gave me a credit of $135 AFTER CHARGING A $200 CHANGE FEE!

    Three weeks later, I called back to use the credit. Another hour on the phone dealing with incompetent customer service that did not communicate well in English, and they denied the credit claiming the destination, airline, and passenger all had to be the exactly the same as the initial flight. How often is that going to happen?

    Travelocity is a scam. Just book direct with the airline/hotel and save yourself money, along with infinite headaches and frustration.

    I've been a long time user of Travelocity and I'm so disappointed about how dishonest they are. I booked a car rental where the ad said there were 70 miles/day included. Never received my email confirmation, and at the end of the trip was charged over $200 in overage because apparently the promotion was for 70 miles for the entire trip. When I contacted Sixt, they said others were having the same issue, but I needed to resolve through Travelocity. A supervisor at Travelocity authorized the credit, but then corporate overrode it stating that they had screenshots of my entire booking experience showing that I signed up for 70 miles total. OK great, send those to me to ease my mind. Nope, the only way to get the screenshots is to subpoena them?! This seems to me that they have something to hide. I'm done using this company.

    They present themselves as the lowest price. I booked a room and wanted later to upgrade but after 11 transfers they were absolutely ignorant as to my request.

Due to my time restraints, I had to keep the room switch the king size bed for 138.00 dollars. Bottom line is book direct with the hotels.

    This is possibly the worst travel agency I've ever seen. They cancelled our return flight with no explanation, blamed the airlines and when it finally came back to them, not only they made me wait on hold for hours with an offshore call center and attempted to give me poor excuses as to why it was cancelled, they also had the audacity to want to charge me another $300 for the flight you owe me, for the next day making me miss a day of work. Then "Jasmin" an offshore supervisor hanged up on me without calling back even though she had my number all along and had called me back before when I asked for a supervisor in the first place. All for no good reason and ruining what was left of our vacation.

    Kudos to US Airways for owning the problem and arrange the flight back home at no cost to us, and resolving the issue very fast. Without a supervisor, or long hold times, or excuses. That's how you do business in my book. To those wanting to use this type of companies (they are part of Expedia), don't. You are better off booking your flight directly with the airlines even if that means you have to spend a little more.

    I booked a stay for my family at Great Wolf Lodge in Sandusky because they had a great room deal for Sept. 20 to the 21st. The price includes waterpark passes and hotel. My itinerary confirmed the reservation with the hotel. I called the facility the Friday before our trip to see if there were any room upgrades, which is something you can frequently do at a good price. The lady at GW informed me that they weren't even going to be open, they were closing the 20th for renovations! How is it possible to book a room for a night that the hotel is not operating?? GW told me they do not get any info from Travelocity other than the name of the reservation. This is ridiculous! What if I hadn't called and packed my family up and wasted my gas driving all the way there to find out we were not able to stay? Unacceptable. GW should have communicated to Travelocity and someone should have notified us.

    Then came the problem getting a refund. It should've been easy. The facility was not going to be open on the day I booked, not my fault. I should get a refund, no questions asked. This was not the case. I was put on hold while they called the hotel to confirm what I was saying was true, then told me since I was not within GW's 48 hour cancellation time, I could not be refunded 100%. Are you kidding me? I literally had to spell it out for the agent. I was not canceling because of something on my part, THE FACILITY WAS NOT GOING TO BE OPEN!! He then transferred me to a reservation agent who tried to reschedule it. I didn't want to reschedule, I just wanted my money back. Plain and simple.

    She then put me on hold to contact the facility to see if my story was true, but instead of being put on hold, she transferred my call to GW. I called back again and had to recount the entire story a third time as well as saying I did not want to reschedule, I just wanted every penny I paid back. This agent finally agreed to a full refund, then asked if I had downloaded their mobile app to book my future trips. Please. I'm never using Travelocity again.

He also said when I am ready to rebook to call Travelocity and give my Itinerary number and they will be able to re-book for me and that I had one year to use the credit. I asked him, "Will there be any fees associated for re-booking?" He said NO and that I am not to call the airline because they will charge you additional fee of $50.00. He said "I should call Travelocity directly and that I just have to pay the difference on the ticket."

    The example he gave me was since I have a credit of $200 and if I saw a ticket for $220 that I just pay the difference of the $20.00. I then asked is that all what is entailed. He said "Yes." Call ended. A couple of days later I tried rebooking, the whole story changed. I was told that I had to pay additional $200 per ticket plus the difference. I told him what I was advised by the previous Agent. He came back and said, "He should not have advised you of that. This is our policy." I spoke to several people plus a supervisor who could not even speak English properly said the same. I then asked if anyway possible I could get a refund. She said "NO." Now I have a $884 credit sitting in my account which I cannot even use. I don't travel much. If I don't use that credit I will lose those funds. Is there anything you can do?

    I booked a ticket from one city to another. When I received my flight itinerary it was out of a different city and they would not fix it. They said they could for a change fee of $200 a person. They do not take responsibility and will not make the changes without me paying for another ticket. When I finally spoke to a supervisor she claims that when I changed the search date it may have changed the departure city. Whatever, I don't know. I just know what search I was using. If their website changed that search I can't say. If I had ever received a confirmation email with the flight details I would have noticed the error. I don't know why it is not worth fixing this in order to keep a customer. I will NEVER use Travelocity or Expedia again and I travel and book all travel for my company all throughout the year.

    Please, please DO NOT use this company!! BUYER BEWARE! If there is any issue with your travel plans whatsoever, you will keep getting put on hold for up to an hour or more and then disconnected repeatedly. You will be told a refund is in the process yet there will be no documentation of it in their system. They will cancel your travel plans just because you ask a question about possibly canceling, then they cancel your reservation without your authorization. You will have to keep calling them back (they are located in Manila) only to get another agent who has no clue as to what you are talking about and has to contact yet another supervisor to whom you will have to repeat your story to. You will have to repeat your story 10 times due to 10 disconnects. You will become so completely exasperated you'll want to scream.

    I'm supposed to be in Hawaii right now, but thanks to Travelocity they canceled my reservation without my authorization only for INQUIRING about a cancellation policy and I am now spending my vacation at home being disconnected by them over and over while they claim they are trying to resolve the situation with their corporate office located in Washington state, USA. UNBELIEVABLE and DEEPLY CONCERNING such a company remains in existence.

    I have never IN ALL MY YEARS OF TRAVEL encountered such poor customer service, lies and "agents" who have no clue what they are doing or how to fix a problem; then instead lie to you and try and blame, in my case, one of the top 10 hotels in the world known for its impeccable customer service for their mistake. Imagine being told by one of the Travelocity agents a refund was being processed and would be received in 5 business days, only to call back and find out no such thing is even in their system.

    BE SAFE. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. It's not worth the headache and loss of your hard earned money. Anyone want to join me in a class action lawsuit? You will need a month long vacation after trying to deal with this company. It truly gives the travel industry a bad name. It was the first time I used them and vow it will be the last.

    On 8/10, made a hotel reservation. The best rate for the property was $161.46 plus taxes for a single queen. This rate was clearly noted as non-refundable. The website stated there was a best rate guarantee for the first 48 hours or 2 days prior to arrival, which is 9/1. On 8/20 I found on their website rooms starting at $110.00 and the SGL Queens sold out. This property listed as available rooms with 2 queens, kings, sofa beds, suites, etc. - all well below what I paid. I assumed the best rate guarantee was compared to what I actually paid versus the cost of a room that is equal or better. Travelocity denied my request for refund, citing that single queens were sold out. You be the judge on their policy.

    I had to cancel a flight to Atlanta a few days ago, and Travelocity took $200 and only gave me $100 credit for a $326 ticket I purchased last week. I called to make a complaint since on my account it shows that I still was charged the total amount. I called and the representative told me that they couldn't refund my ticket and it would be a $200 fee to rebook at a later date and I had to use the same airline when I rebook! I was shocked because if you go on the site to book a flight they randomly give you different airlines based on availability. I also spoke with a supervisor who repeated what the representative said. The high fees for a cancellation are outrageous and it's cheaper to go directly to the airlines to book a flight. Customer satisfaction is the last concern for Travelocity.

    DO NOT BOOK TRAVELOCITY!! I have booked my travel with Travelocity, and they don't even treat me like a customer at all. I booked a stay at The Westin Hotel Crystal City, Washington, D.C. on 8/4/2015. When I arrived, the hotel did not check me in because I had lost my credit card (I already prepaid everything when I booked). I have tried everything I could by showing them my debit card, ATM card, all kind of IDs I had (all in my name), offered to pay $1000 in cash for deposit; and they just refused to let me in. When I asked them for a refund since they had not let me in, They said my reservation was not refundable. Even though I felt terrible at that time, I just nicely walked out of the hotel, went to the one next by, paid $400 with my debit card without any trouble (which is a lot cheaper if I booked in advance).

    So I called Travelocity and explained how I could not get in the hotel and they said: "Too bad, but your reservation is NON-REFUNDABLE." I asked them: "So even though I booked a travel, and the hotel just kicked me out of the door, I still have to pay them?" They said, "That is CORRECT" and CALL ENDED. I take vacation every month and have never experienced anything like this in my life. This is such a scam and I will never give up to let everybody know how Travelocity treated their customer. DON'T EVER BOOK YOUR TRAVEL WITH TRAVELOCITY IF YOU DON'T WANT TO BE CHARGED AND KICKED OUT OF A HOTEL SAYING: "Your trip is not refundable, you still pay even if we don't let you in!"

    Original Review: Aug. 15, 2015

    I booked a flight, car, and hotel reservation through Travelocity. I called the 800 number, as I wanted to be sure that there would be no mistakes. We wanted to leave July 31st, so we could spend 2 days in Vancouver, BC. There was an evening flight from Savannah, Ga. leaving at 7:01 pm, which would have put us in at 12:01 am on August 1st. A few days before leaving I wanted to verify our information and saw that our flight was booked at 7:01 pm on August 1st, not the 31st of July. I asked her about arriving so early on the 1st of August and she said we could check in early for our hotel. I called the hotel about 2 weeks before our trip and found out I needed a room for the 31st of July, I booked and paid for it directly with the hotel. She had put notes in to that effect that we would have an early arrival and would be picking up our rental car by 12:30 am on August 1st. Why would she book our flight out at 7 pm on August 1st???

    When I realized the mistake on the airline booking I called Travelocity and they would do nothing about it, even with the notes in the system by the person that originally booked our trip. I did not mind paying the additional $139.00 for the room for the Friday the 31st of July arrival, as I know hotels usually have a 3 pm check in. I ended up calling US Airways and paying an additional $1200.00 to change our flight to the 31st of July, as we had already booked excursions in Vancouver and relatives were coming from Seattle, Washington to meet us in Vancouver.

    Our cruise was leaving Monday for Alaska, and we had never been to Vancouver so we wanted to come in early and tour the city. I clicked and viewed my itinerary online, it showed we were leaving on the 31st of July. It showed August 1st on part of it, but we arrived on August 1st. I want to be reimbursed for the flight change I paid for, $1200.00.

    Travelocity was my go-to travel booking site for many years. About 5 years ago, I booked a flight traveling in the opposite direction by accident. They were able to help me cancel the flight using their 24 hour cancellation policy. I was so grateful. This quality of service, unfortunately has changed. This time I tried to cancel a flight within 1 hour. The first customer service representative had no idea how to help me or explain why it could not be cancelled. I asked to speak with a manager, who gave me the explanation that they had no control over this particular airlines' policies. I asked if I could speak with his manager. After an hour more, I spoke with a woman at corporate headquarters, who told me the same thing. It brings up two important questions that we as consumers should ponder when booking travel:

    Why book on a travel site that has no ability to give customer service? Wouldn't they want to uphold their standards and control over the customer experience? Why does it take 1+ hours before you are able to speak to someone who may not be able to help you? Two too many questions for me to continue using the service of Travelocity. I think it would be wise advice for everyone to book directly with the airline carrier. This is hard enough to navigate, without a middleman as well.

Now, three weeks later, I want to review my hotel booking before flying to Crete, and when I click on the 'Go To My Itinerary' link near the top of the e-mail (in a green box) and put in my e-mail address and itinerary number that I was sent, the system tells me, "You may have entered an unknown email address or an incorrect itinerary number." I double and triple check to make sure the information is correct, and try a few more times to access my itinerary, but I keep getting the same message.

    I call customer service and, when asked for my information to confirm my identity (name, e-mail address, and phone number), they indicated that the information I provided did not pass the security screening step. What? I provided them with all the same information that I used to book my trip and they tell me it doesn't match what they have in the system. The lady representative then advises that I call back another time with the "correct" information so that they can assist me. I informed her that I had already given her the correct information and that my credit card information was also taken when I booked the hotel. She did not care about that. I then asked to speak with a manager, and after waiting for 15 minutes for a manager to get on the phone, the phone line went dead. I don't plan on calling them back, just blocking any Travelocity charges from going through on my credit card.

    If you plan to use Travelocity to book a hotel, please make sure to confirm that your itinerary is valid and call up the hotel to ensure that the reservation has been made with them. Otherwise, I would not go through the trouble of booking with Travelocity, as you'll probably end up losing more money than you thought you saved by not booking elsewhere! If I hadn't checked my itinerary to see that my reservation did not exist, I would have showed up at the hotel in Sitia, Crete, expecting a room that was unavailable (and I probably would have been charged by Travelocity on top of that)! I now have to look for another hotel to book, and it surely will not be through Travelocity! Really unfortunate!

    Booked a vacation package on Travelocity and on the night of arrival, the hotel is sold out! We had a red eye flight and so it was after midnight when I had to go to another hotel with 2 young children in tow. Travelocity had a "guaranteed room available due to late arrival" on their website but when I mentioned it to the hotel manager he did not know anything about it. When I called Travelocity the following day the agent told me that there is nothing they can do and it's out of their control. Then Travelocity should NOT guarantee anything if there is nothing they can do for their customers when they get turned away in the middle of the night because the hotel had sold out!!! Remember, this is a hotel room that I already PAID for in full weeks before my trip. The hotel had made amends, upgraded us and all that but it was still a major inconvenience for us.

    THEN on our flight back we were given different seat assignments, my 2 young children were seated far from me on their own. They are 9 and 11 years old! I complained to the airline and was told that the seat assignment that I have on my Travelocity confirmation email was denied a long time ago and I should have been advised by Travelocity that I did not have those seat assignment. Called Travelocity again and was told that this is out of their control and there is nothing they can do about it. THEN WHY LET YOUR CUSTOMER BOOK ON YOUR WEBSITE AND SEND THEM CONFIRMATION FOR SOMETHING THAT YOU CANNOT GUARANTEE OR HAVE ANY CONTROL OF.

    By this time I was already very infuriated and demanded to speak to a manager. I was told that it will take 45 minutes for me to do that and NO the manager will not call me, I have to hold for 45 minutes and wait. I was on our way to the airport by this time because my husband wanted to check in really early so we can get the boys seated with us. My call was dropped or I lost the signal along the way and I figured I am just wasting my time since I did not get any empathy at all from the agents that I spoke to.

It took us an additional 4 hours from finding out we actually didn't have a room at our original confirmed hotel to check into the "apparently paid room" at the next hotel. Received confirmation from hotel that reservations were made but not confirmation of payment from Travelocity or $100 credit for next use of Travelocity.

    Upon checking in, we found out that NOTHING had been taken care of and the room was a $606.00 room. Needless to say we didn't pay for it and spent the next 3 hours on the phone with Travelocity being transferred to supervisor to manager and vice versa before being hung up on. We had to sleep in the back of our car in the parking ramp because there were no rooms available that were within our price range for the area (between $200-250.00 per night). We have spent the last 3 days attempting to get our refund of $228.88 from Travelocity who tells us that it's the hotel's responsibility to pay us back and the hotel tell us that Travelocity needs to refund of and vice versa. Almost 10 hours of nonsense on the phone to avail.

    I WILL NEVER USE TRAVELOCITY AGAIN. Scam artists and no one speaks good English. I'm out money, time and WHAT AN EMBARASSMENT AT SHOWING UP AT A HOTEL THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE PAID AND HAVING TO LEAVE AND SLEEP IN MY CAR IN THE MIDDLE OF A PARKING RAMP ON MICHIGAN AVE.

    Booked a hotel with Travelocity, 1 hour before arrival they called and canceled my hotel. Then they promised to find a comparable hotel or better. They failed miserably, ended up refunding my money which I don't have yet. Had to pay for a hotel again, which turned out to be a horrible night of sleep. Never experienced customer service this bad.

    I'm currently in the process of moving from Nevada to Florida for my grad school program. On July 11th, I booked through Travelocity my hotel stay for when I arrived in Florida since I don't have an apartment set up yet. I also had my cat with me, so a pet friendly hotel was important. During my travels, I had a car incident and was stuck in another state. I contacted Travelocity and explained that I would need to edit my reservation for check in to be the following day due to my current issue. Agent changed my reservation and I sent a confirmation email about the changes. I arrive at the hotel in Florida (after driving all day) and the hotel couldn't find my reservation in the system. I explained the situation to the hotel agent and they said they never received the reservation change from Travelocity. Since I didn't arrive the day before, my hotel reservation was then cancelled (oh and now the hotel is sold out).

    I contacted Travelocity about the issue and the Travelocity agent said that he would reimburse my hotel stay, but minus the hotel's fee for "no show". I asked "Why would I be charged for an error on your side?" The agent explained that it's hotel policy and that there's nothing he could do about it. I was transferred to a supervisor where I explained the issue again. The supervisor gave me attitude about the whole situation. I explained that I did everything you're supposed to do and now I'm out of a hotel room for the next week with my cat and now not getting a full refund. After some time, the supervisor agreed to give me my full refund back. She nor did the original agent apologize for this error on their part. The whole time they pretty much blamed me and I even explained that I have a confirmation email with my changes. She said that didn't matter in this situation.

    At the end, the supervisor asked if she could schedule me a current stay through Travelocity. I declined and told her "You're out of your mind" and "I'll be out of a hotel again." I've had great experiences with them in the past, but this was it. No courtesy or understanding. I'm sure I probably wasn't the greatest person to be on the phone with, but after driving 14 hours to show up to no hotel room is pretty upsetting. I've now had to pay out twice for the hotel and will have to wait at least a week for my refund to be back in my account. Never again Travelocity.

    Booked a hotel and flight reservation by phone, agreeing to $2,706.20. When I received a receipt online confirming charges, they tagged on an additional $440.62, which I never agreed to. I contacted my American Express Wells Fargo Card dispute resolution. They closed the case, concluding that the additional charge was for booking fees. I never agreed to such fees, and would not have agreed to the total amount charged of $4,137.40. My issue is with Travelocity by adding additional charges never agreed to and telling W. Fargo these are their usual booking fees. Such fees should be agreed to by the customer rather than tacked on after the fact.

    15 Feb 2015, booked round-trip flight from Kansas City to Italy for travel 18 Jul 2015 via Travelocity website. Provided Passport info (#, expiration date) at time of booking. The route to and from included Chicago US, Toronto CN, Frankfurt GR, and Turin IT. The flight booked successfully, at a cost of just over $1700. Arrived at MCI on time, 18 Jul. My boarding pass was denied due to insufficient days prior to expiration to accommodate travel through Germany, which requires 90 days beyond the departure from the country. (Also, France requires 6 mos validity past departure date from country.) Rebooking the flight would require an immediate passport renewal - not an option. If I couldn't travel on the itinerary/ticket, how did the flight get booked in the first place?

    I'm attempting to negotiate a refund with both Travelocity and United (and will likely have to contact the other two airlines involved in the full itinerary). After three calls to Travelocity, two of which were greater than 45 minutes in length during which I intermittently sat on hold for much more of the time than I spent talking with an agent, I am awaiting a call-back from a corporate manager... in 7-10 business days. Meanwhile, the next time I travel internationally, I will use a (human) travel agent. Domestically, I will go directly to the airline.

    I've been trying to call customer service for THREE days! Their system is ALWAYS "down". They say "please call back in an hour" EVERY hour of EVERY day. There is a charge to cancel or change reservations if it is less than 3 days from the date of travel. I needed to change the car rental six days before arrival. How convenient that their system is constantly down so that customers cannot cancel or change reservations. Quite ridiculous considering I was looking to UPGRADE, not cancel. Instead, I had to call my credit card company to stop payment altogether. I will never work with Travelocity again and will continuously tell people of my experience.

    Booked our trip 12/18/14 for a trip beginning 7/12/15. The itinerary stated, no need to follow up, booking has been confirmed. We arrived for our flight to find out, the flight was canceled 4 months prior & we were never contacted. The airline stated they notified Travelocity & it was their responsibility to notify us, because we were dealing w/ a third party. We had to re-schedule our flight for the following day. We were out an entire day of our vacation, travel time, expenses & vacation time we utilized from work. When attempting to rectify the error hours on wait, intentional dropped calls, passed from supervisor to supervisor explaining the problem numerous times. 4 days prior to the end of our trip, we received an email by Travelocity re: Your flight details have changed w/ a confirmation # for the following day and cancelled 2 of our flights.

    We made a trip to the airport to find out that was not correct and our original schedule was never changed. That cost an additional day to rectify this problem. Travelocity denied the changes, we had to email the proof because of their denial. Then were informed the cooperate manager would notify us within 72 hrs, 4 days later we contacted Travelocity to experience the initial treatment when trying to rectify the error & never received the promised return call to rectify the problem. They refused to take accountability for their errors and intentionally treated us w/ infinite redirection to frustrate & deter us, hoping we will stop trying to contact Travelocity. Bottom line, we lost out on our first day of vacation and had we followed the itinerary they sent us regarding the change to our return flight, we would have missed our plane. Travelers beware.

    We booked our trip to Canada through Travelocity for flight, hotel, and car rental. When I booked the trip, I called Travelocity's customer service to confirm that I would be able to use my VISA debit card to book everything because we don't use credit cards. I was assured by the Travelocity rep that I could use my debit card for everything so I completed the booking. When we arrived in Canada, we were denied our car rental by Avis because they said they do not accept debit cards. They explained that this is their policy and there wasn't anything they could do to help us even though the rental was paid for 4 months prior).

    The Avis rep advised me that Alamo takes debit cards, and Alamo told me they don't but National would. I confirmed this with National. I called Travelocity and waited almost an hour to speak to someone to see if they could transfer our booking since it was already paid for. I spoke with Jenny and she transferred me to a "supervisor" named Al (ID Al ** is what he told me) who said he couldn't even find National at that location (Vancouver Airport), although they advertise National on their website for that location.

    He also said they couldn't do anything to help us, only refund our money in 2-5 days. We had to spend over $400 of our vacation money to rent the car ourselves from National. We did receive the refund while still on our vacation but had to spend money we did not budget for because National was more expensive. We were on a strict budget and saved up for this trip for a long time. It was disappointing to have to spend some of our family's "fun" money on Travelocity's misinformation.

    On Friday, 6/19/15, talked to live person at Travelocity to book 3 rooms for dates of 12/19/15 to 12/24/15. Had viewed lower price on Priceline, but assumed it would be easier to talk to someone at Travelocity to book the 3 separate rooms. Travelocity representative stated that it would be easy to get lower Priceline price by going to their Travelocity Price Guarantee section online and plugging in information after rooms were booked. Luckily, I checked site immediately after booking rooms - the site says (which representative failed to tell me) you must complete within 24 hours. Unfortunately, site also says you must take screenshot of cheaper price and attach to your application for lower price guarantee. I'm not too savvy with computer, but got help to enter screenshot for each application for each of the 3 rooms. However, they required that I use email address that they said they had on file for me.

    I don't remember ever signing up for an account with them, and password request was not responding, so had to use new email to sign up for new account. Completed 3 applications at 11:48 pm on 6/19/15. On Monday, 6/22/15, at 7:57 am, received email stating that my 2 email addresses were different so I would need to re-apply for price guarantee. Unfortunately, 24 hour time frame had passed, and I was not eligible for price guarantee. Called Customer Service at 10:17 am on 6/22/15 to explain email situation. On the phone for 14 minutes waiting for reply. Spokesperson could not answer question and was difficult to understand. Called again at 10:42 am and asked to speak with Supervisor. After being on the phone, and given the runaround by a variety of people, for 54 minutes, I was told (by a person I could barely understand) that I was not eligible for the guarantee.

    On 6/22/15 at 11:20 am, received email saying they apologize for delay in getting back to me and they have high volume of email requests. They went on to say that, since my price comparison wasn't "apples to apples", my 3 applications weren't eligible. Seems the cancellation or change policy on Priceline does not match the cancellation or change policy on Travelocity. Needless to say, I believe this to be extremely unprofessional. Granted, I did not read every detail of their fine print guarantee. However, their unwritten rules of requiring an email account which did not exist and they would not send me a password for, a screenshot of another website which could not possibly contain every detail they require, a 24 hour time frame to apply when they don't get back to you for over 48 hours is wrong, wrong, wrong, and extremely unprofessional. I canceled all rooms on 6/22/15 at 4:11 pm.

The supervisor who clearly works at a call center in another country, misunderstood (I can only guess) and cancelled our hotel for a week and our flight home. She used my travel protection to do so. I ended up with no flights or hotel and when emailing this to customer service, I get a scripted email back saying, "We are so sorry you were not satisfied, we want to make customers happy." Such a disaster, so stressful, and now SO expensive. Please book through the airlines and the hotel. Travelocity is not interested in your welfare.

    Total scam. 2 credit cards declined on booking. Next day all money removed from accounts. Took me 3 days to get a hold of a person. Email said response in 48 hours. Took 4 days. On hold third day for 10 hours. Finally got through. Was told I booked through Hotels.com and transferred. Finally transferred back to Travelocity to lady I could not understand. She would not allow me to speak with her supervisor. Would not give me updates. Just put me on hold for an hour at a time. No apology. No explanation. She finally said it was taken care of. I said my peace and hung up. Lady then called me back 4 times in a row!!! I finally put someone on the phone claiming to be my lawyer and to stop harassing me. I did get cards refunded.

    I booked my travel to Riviera Maya online. I was not aware that transportation from and to the airport was not included in the package. My nightmare began when I called back to purchase transportation to and from the airport. They sold me transportation to a different place than my destination. When I tried calling back multiple times I was hung up on, put on hold forever, and transferred to other incompetent individuals that offered no help, no assistance and giving me wrong information, i.e., "we do not offer transportation to your hotel." I later found out that was a lie. I now returned from my trip and had purchased travel protection. Unfortunately during my trip American Airlines left my luggage behind and returned it damaged. I have been trying to contact Travelocity for the past four days without success. My advice to you is to never use Travelocity unless you want a never ending frustrating vacation.

    I made a reservation on line Wednesday evening. When I checked Travelocity site Friday evening, the same exact trip, hotel and airfares went down $357.00. When I called them about this they said I should cancel the flights, rebook, and they would waive the change fee price, instead of just issuing me a refund. When I booked, they said "ONLY 2 TICKETS LEFT AT THIS PRICE." Now at the cheaper fee they say "ONLY 5 TICKETS LEFT AT THIS PRICE." SCAM, SCAM, SCAM, and not at all accommodating. If they are going to have a price guarantee, then honor it regardless of time.

    I pray that my trip is better than booking it. To begin with this will be our third and last time booking any travel with Travelocity or Expedia. Upon receiving our email confirmation for our upcoming trip we realized that the return departure time was incorrect. I called back in less than 3 hours to inform them of the error. I was put on hold for more than an hour only to hear that the representative that I was speaking to was unable to rectify the error. I was then placed on hold for the 2nd time a spoke to a supervisor, who cancelled the original reservation. She then rebooked the same package with a price increase. I was informed that a credit for the difference would be applied to our credit card.

    Well you can imagine our surprise when we checked with the credit card company and was told that our card had been billed twice the original amount. Upon calling and being placed on hold for more then an hour I called our credit card company who placed the call to Travelocity and he experienced being placed on hold once again for more than an hour. We were told that part of the credit had been applied, but the airline portion would have to be credited to the account from the airline and that could take up to 8 weeks to be credited back to my credit card. Even though our credit card company informed us that they had paid Travelocity the full amount we were not aware or informed that the airline would be crediting our account.

    Beware of booking packages (air/hotel) since you are not informed that any changes to the air portion are credited by the airlines. I don't know how long this company can continue to do business in this manner. You can never speak to someone in the US corporate office to handle customer service in a more professional manner. After all the customer should come first and it should not take 3-5 days to resolve any issues. Forget about getting and credits for any inconvenience you are put through. Back to my earlier comment, I traveled to Ecuador and Costa Rico and the hotel accommodations were not as described.

    On both trips I paid for the hotel twice and was told I would have a credit to be applied on my next trip. Well you guessed it I never received any credit, each time I tried to use it I was told the credit was only good for a hotel stay, then when I tried to you it on this trip, I was told their records didn't show any credit. Outsourcing is a bigger problem than anyone can imagine. The representatives don't have the authority to make major money adjustments, and it's impossible getting to speak to someone who has the US representative with the authority to make money changes. My advice make travel arrangements with your credit card company or your airlines of choice. It's safer and less complicated when things go wrong! Cheaper is not always better. Pay now or later. The choice is yours!!!

    I attempted to book 4 nights at Four Seasons Vancouver and was quoted $1685. When I proceeded to finalize the transaction the price went up $20 saying "prices change". I did not conclude the deal by pressing the confirm button. I then went back in and started the whole transaction again. Completed the deal for $1705. When I checked my credit card I saw I was charged both times. I immediately sent TRAVELOCITY an email and received a few hours later a stock reply saying they would respond in 48 hours. The reply was later than that and they said they had had large amounts of inquiries to deal with and the $1685 fee was to "test the account for validity".

    I replied saying the $1705 had been approved at the same time and to reverse the charge as I had to transfer funds from another account to cover and had paid two Forex fees. Another stock reply which I followed up, another apology and the comment they need to conduct "further research". I replied to this and am still waiting for a reply and a refund. This over an 8 day period from the initial charge. Imagine the $$$$$$ they are collecting in deposits/overcharges/errors which should be in other people's accounts.

    They are owned by EXPEDIA, so I thought I could expect better, but obviously not. I also thought being in Canada and booking a Canadian hotel I was being quoted in CAD, but no it was USD, making the deal dearer than direct with Four Seasons. My advice - Book direct and void these blood sucking vultures who are pushing up the cost of rooms and taking a huge slice of profits from hotels. What started as a great service has turned into a RIPOFF. Avoid TRAVELOCITY, EXPEDIA, WOTIF, etc: BOOK DIRECT.

    On January 28,2015, I booked a trip to Puerto Vallarta through Travelocity. This included flight and hotel. We were scheduled to leave on June 8, 2015 at 0530. Months after booking I received an e-mail from American Airlines, that our flight had been rescheduled to depart at 0755. On June 8, 2015 at 0300 in the morning I received a voicemail that our flight had been canceled and rescheduled for the next day. I called Travelocity and was told that I needed to contact the airlines. Called the airline and was given the option to drive to an airport 79 miles away from my home, which I did. We got to the airport on time and this flight was delayed (mechanical problems).

    Subsequently we missed our connecting flight and spent the night in Dallas and missed out on a day vacation. Called American Airline and was told to contact Travelocity. I called Travelocity and spoke with numerous employees, then I spoke with the best English speaking employee ** and was told to contact the Hotel. During our stay at the hotel they made it clear they were not responsible for the canceled flight. So the Airline (American Airlines) the hotel (Hard Rock) and the travel agency (Travelocity) are not responsible for the hotel cost ($310 per night), I am? Buyer beware......

I called them and they said that I should have known to go online to the highway toll website and pay my tolls online with my credit card. Well, I didn't know that so I asked if I could still do that but of course now it's too late. I think a small administrative fee would be acceptable but a $75 administrative fee?? That is ridiculous, outrageous and in my opinion, a SCAM. I will never use Dollar Rentals or Travelocity again if I don't get some know of fair resolution to this.

The hotel had no room that held 5 people. So you call to fix and get an illiterate Philippine call center that lies and gives wrong numbers to US offices that don't exist.

    In large letters, the site says "There is no charge for changing a flight", in teeny tiny print it says "The airlines charge $200 to change" - very misleading. When you want to book a flight, wait time for an agent is 2 minutes. I have been waiting for 45 minutes on hold for an agent to apply the credit and am not encouraged by all these reports which say they find reasons not to apply the credit.

    On May 31, 2015, I bid for a 3-star Top Secret hotel in Palmdale, CA for $64 a night. When I completed the purchase, the hotel I was assigned to was the Ramada Palmdale, which the Travelocity website rates as a 2-star hotel. The 2-star hotels were listed as being $38 a night. I immediately called your customer service and was told to call back the next morning. When I did so, I explained the situation and asked for a supervisor and was put on hold for 40 minutes. I hung up and tried again with a 20 minute wait for a supervisor.

    The person I spoke to said he could not do anything, and transferred me to a manager. I waited 50 minutes for the manager to pick up, and when she did, I explained the situation to her and requested a 3-star hotel. She told me something to the effect of, "When you do that kind of bidding, it's opaque and there are no guarantees for the number of stars". I asked her where it says this on the website and she did not give me that information, only insisting that the process is opaque. This went on for about 20 minutes, when I gave up and disconnected the call.

    Unfortunately, I have found this experience to be unsatisfactory because I believed I would receive a 3-star hotel for $64 a night, but instead received a 2-star hotel, which I could have booked for much less. I am disappointed because I feel that I have been misled and that after exhausting your customer service, my problem has not been resolved. I have been using Travelocity for almost 10 years, and have booked many trips with your company. I have also recommended your services to all of my friends and family looking to travel. I am simply asking for the 3-star hotel I was bidding on. If my problem is not resolved, I am sad to say that I will have to take my business elsewhere and recommend another service to my friends and family.

    I discovered via my itinerary that the representative incorrectly booked my 13 yr. old son's plane ticket as an adult, and my 16 year old as a child. One bedroom was also booked under the 13 year old's name. Of course, the representative's verbal confirmation was free of any errors. The next representative, and the manager, claimed that the error must be from Spirit Airlines, and told me to contact Spirit. Yet, all of my information was generated through Travelocity. Next, the manager actually tried to convince me that the email just had a typo. Yet, the itinerary listed under my account, on their website, matched the information in the email. When I asked the manager to please contact Spirit Airlines, and the Flamingo hotel, and provide them with the correct information, he put me on hold for 15 minutes, and then hung up. If that wasn't bad enough, he did not follow up.

    I called back, and waited an additional 30 minutes, before getting a customer service representative. After 25 more minutes, they stated that they can't notify Spirit to let them know that they made an error. Mind you, I am not allowed to make changes once a flight is booked, for these particular nonrefundable tickets. Believe it or not I caught the error, and contacted Travelocity, about 30 minutes after making the reservation. What I find most disturbing is that I received such appalling treatment, despite the fact that I was always patient, and respectful.

    The first one was several years ago when Travelocity refused to honor or refund tickets from Mexico to the US, for a day when there were no flights out of Mexico City to Denver. We had to buy new tickets and pay for them again. No compensation, lots of fear, lots of confusion. They said that it wasn't their fault that the airline wasn't flying, even though, we had tickets in hand. The second was a month or so ago, when we had bought tickets to Shanghai China, through Travelocity. We spent hours and hours on the phone trying to make the tickets work when it was found that a flight had been cancelled to get us back home from Shanghai. Travelocity took no responsibility for that. We had to do it ourselves with United customer service, and AirAsia. They each said that it was the responsibility of Travelocity to work it out. Then when we arrived at the airport, it turned out that we needed a visa. We have had visas before, no problem.

    No one even suggested that getting a Visa from China was a big giant problem which could not be solved with either money or time. We had to have applied two months previous to even possibly get a visa. RCI didn't tell us that when they booked us a hotel. Travelocity didn't tell us when we booked our tickets. The agent at United cancelled those tickets on the spot. Our big vacation was ruined. Money, time and energy wasted. Lessons learned: Don't trust Travelocity with your arrangements - they will not take responsibility for their carelessness, and second - always do your own research regarding what exactly is required. There is a generic disclosure on the face of all tickets, but this time, there were specific directions that might have been included, they might have helped with the problems around the cancellation, they might have refunded all of our money. But - no.

    This is my response to an agent who has tried to contact me in regards to my complaints 2 days after the matter is resolved. So unorganized! This case has been resolved. I was speaking with the agent over the phone and sending her screen shots via email so that she had a visual description. Your agent could not help me over the phone. The 17th time I had called prior over a span of a week on a mistake that was made on either Travelocity's end or American Airlines.

    You accepted my first purchase, canceled my second which makes no sense how a first order can process but the second cannot, and made place a third purchase. No I did not and nor my bank place a cancellation. Someone on your end or American airlines canceled my order and tried to blame my bank. I called and let my bank know that there was going to be a big purchase via Travelocity/American airlines and I authorize it. They let you hold it in processing (they were just waiting for you to take the money) for 5 business days and if no activity they cancel the hold. So you guys canceled and never took my money.

    The bank was just following their policy and I understood their policy since I had to open the account. Customer service always seemed great and very kind over the phone but they never solved or answered any of my questions. Spoke with **, **, ** and 3 other agents and 2 supervisors but I stopped asking for names since I know they are not your real names and every time I would mention an agent's name that assisted in a prior phone call that agent would say okay as if they had no idea who I was talking about. And even after the multiple phone calls and complaints they do not even offer any sort of compensation or upgrade after all of the stress and anxiety of trying to get these tickets.

    I know you don't care but prices I give a 10 (great) but customer service and everything else a 0 (horrible). If it wasn't for the fact that I needed these tickets asap and the fact that I had open/processing transaction and an existing case with you (Travelocity) I would have used a different booking agency. You pigeonholed me into continuing to use your service. Again I know you don't care but this email is going on yelp. Have a great day.

    Not to mention every time I called customer service with the automated system it would say the order's been canceled and after waiting on hold for 15 minutes to speak with a supervisor, she says hello then we get disconnected. I'm not saying she purposely hung up, it had just put the cherry on top to top it all off. And when I had called back all of a sudden the automated system could not find any itinerary numbers associated with my phone number when I had 2. So I type my number in and the system says it's the same number I'm calling from and cannot locate any itinerary numbers.

    So then I type the itinerary numbers and it's says found it.. brief pause then it states I'm having trouble locating that itinerary numbers then it connects me to an agent. So you also had me freaking out that you guys canceled my first purchase as well. This isn't my first time flying however it is my first time purchasing tickets and coordinating this trip on my own. Not to mention the trip is to pick up my daughter who lives in Texas who I haven't seen in a year and bring her back to California for a bit so I can take her to Disneyland and seaworld.

I went to change my flight so that I could leave a day earlier and they had to completely recharge me for it. On top of that they charged me a fee for changing it which they said I would have reimbursed. They didn't charge my card until two weeks later. Not only that but it was for an extra $200 that they charged me. I have no idea where they got this number in their head. But my account was then overdrawn and I had to pay a fee for that. The bills that I had tried to pay didn't go through and I had to pay a fee for that AND what was even more frustrating was the overnight tour that I wanted to go on for my trip that I tried to pay for ended up being sold out by the time they had finally fixed the problem. The tour was the big reason for my going on this trip anyway.

    The supervisor I spoke to was so rude--blamed it on me-- did not want to take responsibility at all and never apologized. I will never use Travelocity again. I thought customer service was to help customers and come to some conclusion where you are satisfied at the end of the call.

    I had travel credits for American Airlines in the amount of $158.77 from a previous trip to Cabo San Lucas that had to be cancelled due to a hurricane in October 2014. We had trip insurance and was refunded for the hotel and airport transfers - Travelocity said that we could not be reimbursed for the flight, but that we had a flight credit of $1,283.96 ($641.98 for both my husband and myself). Travelocity told me that we had to book a flight prior to March 9, 2015, and if there was a remaining credit, we had until September 22, 2015, to use the remaining credits.

    To date, I have $158.77 in American Airline credits and it has been IMPOSSIBLE to book a flight to use them. To say I am frustrated and angry with Travelocity (Expedia's company) is an understatement. I contacted Travelocity on April 20, 2015, to book a flight using my credit ($158.88) and after NUMEROUS times being on hold, disconnected (with me calling THEM back), etc. - I was on the phone from 11:50 am UNTIL 4:30 PM!!! Over 4 1/2 hours!

    I had checked flights online repeatedly to get the lowest airfare, had the flight numbers and everything that I needed to book a trip to Phoenix, AZ. When I called Travelocity, I was told that I had to talk to the 'Travel Credit Supervisor' and continuously got disconnected. I would call back and sit on hold AGAIN and had to through the process from the beginning again - only to be disconnected AGAIN and AGAIN! I even gave them my telephone number, had them repeat it back to me, in case we were disconnected again - they NEVER called back!

    Once, I finally got to **, the "Travel Credit Supervisor", then they tried to connect me with yet another person to book the travel credit and I was disconnected AGAIN! I asked for a number directly to that department and I was given 800-397-33342, extension 3 - only to find out it was the SAME 'customer service' number!!! Some of the people I talked to were ** - just absolutely ridiculous. All the while, the chances of me getting the low fare I had found were reduced due to having to sit on the phone with Travelocity for 4 1/2 hours!

    When the recording on the line says, "this call may be monitored", what a joke! If it were monitored, you would understand the frustration that your company puts people through! I would think that you would have an option in your phone recording that could take a client directly to the "Credit Travel Department" if there is such a thing. I have noticed through research that many others have encountered this same issue.

    It is pretty obvious that Travelocity is profiting by not honoring these travel credits. That is illegal. It's as though Travelocity knows that if you stay on the phone long enough and are frustrated enough, the customer will not book a trip. I really don't see how they could book a trip if this is their method of business!!! I sent a letter certified mail to Travelocity on April 23, 2015 and, to date, have not heard one word back. When I track the letter, it was received on April 28, 2015 at 8:02 am. I want the $158 that is due to me! I will NEVER sit on the phone with Travelocity again. A company with good customer service would understand that this is not an unreasonable request. I will do anything I can to get this money back because it is just WRONG for Travelocity to treat any customer in this manner.

I also told her that there was a possibility that two other teenager children (15 and 16) might be in the room. She consistently said no charge for children under 18, and she noted it on my special instructions. When I got to the check in the attendant, **, told me that it was a Temple city ordinance that there can only be four people to a room... regardless of age. I found out that is not true, after talking to several city officials, including **, who is the liaison to the hospitality industry in Temple.

    It took forever to get the hotel to refund me for the Travelocity bill, and they forced me to get two rooms at a "discount" rate. It was a terrible experience and they could not have been more rude. I spoke with the "owner" whom I later found out is not the decision maker. He could not have been more rude or belligerent. Because the notes about the kids were in the special instructions, ** accused me of not even booking for the kids! Also, the breakfast was barely that. Not one piece of fruit... no cereal or milk.

    WARNING. PLEASE SHARE. I want to make sure that everyone is fully aware of what they are getting when they book travel arrangements through Travelocity. Back in February my daughter booked a flight to LA for a cruise. She purchased the tickets through Travelocity. She was taking a cruise with family celebrating for two marriages in our family. She planned the trip carefully recognizing that she would need to be back home on the 8th to attend her son's preschool graduation (a memory you never get twice). Her departure flight was fine everything was good.... They arrived, went on their cruise and returned to the airport as instructed on their itinerary for their flight home.

    When they went to check in for their flight they were told by Frontier Airlines, that the flight from that airport was discontinued a year ago. They had no flights available until the next day. The flights that were available would not get them home until "after" her sons graduation. When calling Travelocity, to find out what she could do, Travelocity's supervisor said (and I am quoting) "Do you see the name Travelocity on the plane? No you don't because we are just a company that is a convenience for you, it isn't our problem. It's the airlines problem".**

    Frontier at least offered to put them on another flight although it would be the next day and departing from LAX not Orange County and she would not arrive in time for her son's graduation. When she asked them what she was supposed to do for the night and how she was to get from Orange County airport to LAX. They told her it wasn't their issue. It was Travelocity's problem. So my daughter & hubby were stranded in LA had to get transportation from/to airports that were an hour and a half apart, pay for a hotel and miss her son's graduation.

    Mom (me) got on the phone with Travelocity, I spoke to their corporate office customer service, and was told "we only show what the airlines show is available, so it isn't on us." I asked her where on their site that it "warned" consumers that changes made by airlines are not their responsibility... and she agreed there wasn't. SO BE WARNED!!! DO NOT USE TRAVELOCITY to book your flights. They are NOT able to guarantee you flight is actually a "real" flight at all.

    I also got on the phone with Frontier Airlines and spoke to their customer service supervisor. He apologized that they received poor service and will be sending them two $25 vouchers. Other than that there is nothing they can do.... SO BE WARNED!!! FRONTIER AIRLINES allows for tickets to be sold for flights that have been discontinued.... and if you get put on one they will give you a $25 voucher but you will still be out the money not only to travel from one airport to another but for all the other expenses as well such as a hotel! Do not rely on Travelocity or Frontier Airlines if you are planning travel around a special event. Chances are you will miss it and they will do nothing about it! #travelocity #frontier TRAVELOCITY & FRONTIER AIRLINES... THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER!!!!!!!!! PLEASE SHARE SO THAT OTHERS ARE WARNED!!!

    Travelocity is keeping the refund that the hotel received from them. So, they just got paid twice for a place that I did not stay at. This has to be Fraud somehow. How can they keep the payment from me and also keep the payment from the refund of the hotel? The hotel stated that they had to refund it to Travelocity and they will not give me my money back.

    Needing to make adjustments to flights and eventually canceling due to schedule changes by the airlines, I was forced to deal with Travelocity rather than the airlines. Hold times usually lasted for longer than an hour and would eventually be hung up on after an hour. Periodically, agents would click on line and place me back on hold without saying anything. I have been hung up on no less than 15 times over a two week period. Their website has zero functionality to handle anything service related. Requested speaking with supervisor and was constantly hung up on and would try to call back and would ALWAYS go through the same issues again. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE AIRLINES DISCONTINUE THEIR RELATIONSHIPS WITH TRAVELOCITY AND EXPEDIA! By law, I have the right to cancel my flights because they changed flight times by over two hours.

    I noticed that United Airlines flight had changed the time for flight in May, booked through Travelocity. The change was to a time 40 minutes later, which drastically altered my ability to meet the requirements of my trip. I called Travelocity customer support, and they immediately informed me that I could change the reservation for a penalty. When I explained, again, that United had changed the time, they put me on hold for 15 minutes, and got back to me with the good news that they would not refund the ticket but would allow me to rebook without penalty. I asked him point blank if I could use the ticket to fly to destination other than my original destination, and he said definitely. However, he told me, I would have to call Travelocity again at the time of rebooking, and then the Travelocity agent would have to call United again in order to waive the penalty at the time of booking.

    When I objected to such a confusing, and perhaps unreliable process, he put me on the phone with his floor supervisor. She mechanically repeated everything that he had mechanically repeated, several times, (ignoring my actual questions) and then, when all that was done, she had to put me on hold in order to actually cancel the ticket. While we were waiting on hold, I looked online to see if I could find a flight on United to another destination in June. When the supervisor got back to me, I mentioned a flight I had noticed. She said it would cost more than the United website showed because those prices were only for new bookings not rebooking. She suggested a different flight with a layover. She then went through an explanation that I absolutely could not follow to the effect that she would need to call United to see the cost of that hypothetical itinerary.

    After another very long hold, she told me that based on the Waiver Code that United had given her I could change my reservation without penalty, but only if I took a flight within the window of the day after or before the original flight. When I pointed out that I had now been on the phone with them for well over an hour (and ruined my entire morning), only to have them add new restrictions to the policy and change what they had already told me.

    After listening to her repeat the same mechanical lines a dozen times, I asked to escalate the issue to her supervisor and after another long hold, I spoke to her. I found her even more mechanical and even less willing to hear my concerns. In the end, I was on the phone for over an hour and a half for a complete waste of time. The upper supervisor did not even wish to acknowledge that I had been given misinformation by their own agents to begin with. This was not what I expected from Travelocity. I will never book through them again.

    Words cannot express how bad their customer service is. It is utterly amazing that a company can behave this way and be successful. Travelocity customer service insists to do only one thing and that is to make it impossible to receive any kind of help. The wait time will be over an hour every time you call. When you call, they say they will help you out by either transferring you to a non working number, or tell you they will need to direct you to a manager in which they will put you on hold for another hour.

    Their goal is NOT to help you in any way and make it so hard and frustrating that you just give up. They will not get back to you in anyway even if they say that they will contact you. IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM don't even bother to contact them, go directly to the credit card company and dispute the charges.

    I booked a hotel deal in Yakima, WA about 2 weeks before my trip. When I arrived at the hotel, I realized I had accidentally booked for May 5th, not May 4th, which is what I meant to do. The hotel was gracious and agreed to not charge me any additional fees and, thankfully, they had a room available. When I called Travelocity customer service to assure that I would not be charged twice (for both nights), the rep informed me she had to call the hotel, which she did, and communicated to me the same sentiments, no additional fees. I don't remember now why, but she put me on hold a second time to call the hotel back and she never came back on the line. I was on hold for 30 minutes.

    So I hung up and tried again. I explained the situation. Apparently the first rep did not make any notes in my file so the first 30 minutes I waited did not exist according to them. And that is exactly how they made me feel. The second rep could not reach the hotel upon the first attempt and when I proceeded to raise his voice at me, I requested to speak to a supervisor.

    The supervisor came on and the first thing she asked me was "why did you ask to speak to me?" No, hello, how can I help you, nothing. Immediately a confrontational question. I told her I was frustrated with the first rep for not taking notes and the second rep for raising his voice. She essentially blamed me and insinuated I had lied about my first call because there were no notes (therefore it did not happen, according to her). I asked her to call the hotel again. She said she would call one last time but then not again. That she cannot just be calling the hotel over and over again. She was incredibly rude. Probably top 3 of the rudest customer service reps I have ever spoken to.

    All the while I did not raise my voice and tried to remain calm. She put me on hold for 20 minutes. All in all, I spent an hour on the phone with Travelocity, just for them to tell me that there was nothing they, or I, needed to do. That the hotel would take care of that. Couldn't they have just told me that in the first place? Do the reps and supervisors know their policies so little that they couldn't have communicated that to me sooner than 60 minutes in?

    I phoned Customer service to cancel a hotel booking. I was on the line over 1.5 hrs and put on hold for at least 1 hr+ of that time... THIS IS ABSURD! Surely it's a tactic to have you hang up so they can charge you the non cancellation fee due to not completing the call. Once I spoke with the customer service rep and informed her of the cancellation there was no reason to put me on hold. All she had to do was simply send me a confirmation email and take care of the rest internally. I have never had to cancel a reservation through Travelocity before but I'll surely book direct or through another vendor next time. Awful service.

A few hours later I try to check in & the hotel tells me that Travelocity has called them to tell them that my reservation was fraudulent (which is impossible because I wrote my billing information the same way my credit card company has it) & was humiliated and asked to leave.

    I booked a room for a funeral out of town. I gave them the address of the venue and they were very helpful with finding a location close by. Booking was very easy despite the heavy accent of the woman booking the room and me having to repeat the spelling of my email multiple times but hey maybe it was me. If that was the worst no biggie. I was told I would receive a confirmation email shortly (perfect).

    By the next day still no email so I called back and they were unable to find my reservation. OK. Maybe there was a mistake, still no biggie. The lady was very agitated and told me it was my fault I'm probably not giving her the correct email address (mind you sounding very agitated). So I gave her my husband's email which I'm sure wasn't it because I remembered having to spell it so many times. But hey maybe I made a mistake. Ends up no reservation either. So she placed me on hold for 1 hour and 43 minutes.

    During this time I called the bank to confirm because maybe there was a mistake. Bank said yes it has been charged already and at this time I find out the price is higher than I was told by almost 50.00 bucks! So I use the house phone to call them back again still on hold on my cell. I get another girl who makes me go through the same process and I oblige. She leaves me on hold for what ended up being 55 minutes.

    During this time I had been on hold on my cell for 1 hour 45 minutes. After the girl returns and answers as if it's a new call I ask if it was necessary that I be left on hold for almost 2 hours. And she replies "It wasn't me, It was **." OK. And she asked me if I would like to book a room (now I'm getting annoyed). I said I already booked a room, and she said I had not, and if I had I needed to book another so they could find the old reservation, I said that sounds crazy and it will probably complicate the situation even more, so now what? I asked to speak to a manager or someone anyone else. And she hung up.

    I called the hotel and yes they have my reservation. So I'm still attending the funeral and the hotel has my reservation. So I guess I'm going to get burned for the extra charge. Will never ever use Travelocity who is connected to Expedia as well now? Scary. And did I mention this was my first time using them? The only confirmation number I have is the one the hotel gave me.

Difference of $1407.23, which sounds like I made out better, however they did not reserve the car for me... So I had to pay an addition $188.00 for the car rental.

    I logged onto Travelocity to book a flight for my son and I for SEPT 2015. I am a first time user, so I went through the entire process. Clicked book now, and it stated that it was processing my order. I went to print it out and saw that it had not gone through. I called them directly and was on hold for almost an hour. I finally got someone on the line and she recommended that I try it again while I was on the phone with her. The same thing happened again. She told me that she could book it for me if I gave her all of the details. Each time I had tried it, it gave me itinerary numbers however she could not see them on her end. When she attempted to book it for me, she quoted me $100 higher. I lost it! She said there was nothing she could do, so I asked to speak to a supervisor.

    I waited another 20 minutes on hold to speak with a very rude woman Who also claimed there was nothing that could be done. She was so rude to me, I could not even believe what I was hearing. I asked if she had a supervisor and she said she was going to connect me with the corporate office. In speaking with the "supervisor" at the corporate office, I found that she was twice as rude as the others. She told me it was not their fault, that my bank must have put some kind of a hold on my credit card. I told her there is no hold on my card, I am at a zero balance. I asked her what I should do if they tell me there is no hold on my card, that would show it was a problem with the website. She said "I can't tell you where to do your business, you can use whoever you would like."

    I was astounded by the treatment I received through Travelocity. I am a very nervous flyer as it is, and this put my anxiety level through the roof. I contacted my bank who assured me that no transaction was attempted, and there were no hold on my card. I decided to book direct through Alaska Airlines, which was a breeze and I had no issues.

    I booked 11 flights for my family US to Canada through Travelocity which was a BIG mistake! I realized right after booking that I needed to change the return flight and make a minor name change. The website states that you can do it for 24 hours from the itinerary page under "manage booking" which is false. I called and the return flight was canceled but the name change from ** was not made so I called back the next day. Now, I seriously think the "call 'service' team" in India finds pleasure in harassing the company's customers.

    The reason I feel this way is after being told by them I had to call United, who then told me to call Canadian Air, who told me to "call my travel agent." I called Travelocity back and it was clear the girl took pleasure in adding to my frustration. She kept putting me on and off hold and amused herself by blatantly changing her answers. First, after being put on hold for 20 mins she came back and said the airline would only let her change 3 letters. I told her okay I can make that work - she said oh wait, let me talk to my manager.

    Last night I checked my air reservation for Los Angeles in May to attend my son's grad school graduation. Realized to my chagrin that I had booked the flights (months ago) for the wrong weekend. I realized I screwed up and I would forfeit most of what I'd paid in the airline's change fees. But I still needed to rebook for the correct dates. I called Travelocity and was connected with a call center in India. The rep's English was difficult to understand and she had me repeat everything I told her over and over. She put me on hold for 10 minutes at one point. Eventually I asked her if I could just make the change myself on line. She said yes so after 20+ minutes on the phone, I hung up. Went to the website only to find that you cannot change air reservations made through Travelocity online.

    I waited until the next morning hoping I could get a US call center. Called Travelocity and message said there would be a 26 minute wait, which was wrong. It took 33 minutes before I was connected with a call center from Philippines. Her English was better, but it was slow and laborious to communicate the flight changes I desired to her. Finally after I'd been on phone for 47 minutes total, she asked for my credit card. With the change fees I was only going to receive about $40 per ticket credit on the new tickets. Gave her the credit card and there was a long pause while she said the charge was processing. She then told me there had been a price change which would have reduced my credit on the old tickets to a total of $22 for our 2 reservations. I already had the airline site up on my screen. There was no price change on the airline's site. I told the agent to screw it and just booked completely new tickets through the airline's website.

    Had I booked on the airline's site originally, I could have made the change online or with one of its agents with less than a 5 minute wait time at the same time of day. We have had other problems with Travelocity air tickets in the past. Airlines often cannot make any changes on air tickets booked through Travelocity so if you get to the airport and there's a problem and you need to rebook, you're screwed, especially if your Travelocity itinerary was with multiple airlines and the flight you need to change is not on the ticket stock for that airline. I personally will never, ever book another air reservation on Travelocity.

She tells me instead that she has to call the hotel and see if they will let me cancel my reservation and be refunded for the full amount, and that it will take up to 2 weeks for the refund.

After begrudgingly answering a few of my questions, I inquired about a coupon code that I had received an email about. The "customer service" representative (who was exceedingly difficult to understand) told me that I should have told her about the coupon code earlier and that she could see if there was anything she could even do about it.

I consider myself a patient person and had been nothing but pleasant with her up to that point. After calling back and sitting on hold for ten minutes, a young man answered the phone (also difficult to understand). I explained my horrific experience with the previous rep to him to which he nonchalantly replied that he would see if he could book the trip. He did not even acknowledge how inappropriate the previous situation had been and he also tried to book the wrong trip for me. If I had not stopped him he could have easily used my information to pay for a trip that was the completely incorrect itinerary.

    After clearing up the itinerary issue, he proceeded to finally explain to me that I could not use the coupon code and did I still want to book the trip. At this point I had no desire to book with this company. Please understand that this has nothing to do with wanting to use a coupon code for this trip, and everything to do with the completely belligerent "customer service" reps. I have purchased trips from this company in the past and will NEVER do so again.

When I got to the hotel, Travelocity had booked me the cheapest room for the price of the upgraded suite I requested on their website. I didn't notice at the bottom of the confirmation they listed the cheap room, but charge the suite price. They refused to refund or compensate for the error. In February, the room I got was going for half the price I paid at the hotel itself. So why would I have paid Travelocity twice as much for the cheap room if the hotel had it for half the price.

    We booked a hotel through the website of this horrible company called Travelocity. This cruel insensitive company's website did not state anywhere that parking fees applied on top of the booking. We arrived at the hotel to find out that we had to pay 30 pounds to park our car on top of what we had already paid for. We called this nasty company and we were kept on the phone for an hour and half. The call centre based in INDIA finally spoke to us and confirmed they had not stated we had to pay for parking on their website but cannot do anything about it.

    By now our 2 very young children who had traveled for over 200 miles were very tired and restless. We had to pay for this expensive parking before we were allowed to park and stay at the hotel. We are very angry about this and feel cheated. We will take this company to a claims court if they don't resolve this issue and pay us the parking charges. PLEASE DO NOT EVER USE THESE SCAMMERS. THEY WILL FRUSTRATE YOU AND WRECK YOUR HOLIDAY. We call them Hellocity! Hellocity! Hellocity! Book them only if you want a hellish holiday.

    In July 2014 I purchased a round trip ticket Honolulu to Sydney, Australia through Travelocity. The airline carrier was Hawaiian Air. After staying in Australia several weeks I decided to extend my trip by another 2 weeks. I called Travelocity roughly 12 days prior to my original ticket's departure date. Using the toll-free number specifically listed on their web page for people calling from outside the U.S. And I asked the clerk to confirm that my call was indeed a toll-free call (I was using my U.S. ATT cell phone). The clerk assured me that my call wouldn't result in charges. Once home I saw the huge bill. I believe the 5 calls to do a change to my ticket's return leg were excessively long due to incompetence by the phone representatives. Even the last call to reach an upper level manager took over an hour to finalize my ticket.

    These 5 calls were approximately 20, 4, 45, 12, and 65 minutes in length (from my memory), for a total of 146 minutes at $2.00 per minute totaling $296. U.S. Dollars. Once home in the U.S. I called Travelocity but I was told it wasn't their problem. They offered me no explanations for why I was billed $2.00 per minute. A new ticket was issued on the 3rd call however it had itinerary problem which I was not aware of since the clerk had not orally reviewed it with me before the close of the conversation. It had not been made as I had instructed. After the third call I had a new but unusable ticket. Calling a 4th time for help on the unusable ticket I was told Travelocity can only change the ticket once, and I would need to call an upper level manager in San Francisco the following day.

    The next day I made a 5th call which lasted over an hour - and finally I was issued a ticket with the correct dates and times. Although it was not my fault that the departure time on the first ticket wouldn't work for me I had to explain in detail all my previous conversations. This whole experience left me exhausted, disillusioned and angry that Travelocity would require 2 hours and 46 minutes (me mostly waiting in silence for something to happen at their end) to get half of a round trip ticket moved forward by 2 weeks keeping the same airline carrier and same time of departure. (Note: At the time of changing the ticket, the new flight was listed on the internet as costing the same as the original ticket. So no cost differences. For anyone wondering - Travelocity charged a change fee for making the change.)

    I booked two hotel rooms using Travelocity. Throughout the whole booking process, the website said "Free Cancellation through April 30." When I got the confirmation email, the email said non-refundable. I called a couple weeks later because I had to cancel one of the rooms and they told me that my room was non-refundable and I couldn't receive a refund. I directed them to their website, which was still showing "Free Cancellation through April 30" for all room booking options including the rate that I booked. Their response was that I needed to show them a screenshot from the time I booked to prove that the website said "Free Cancellation" at the time of booking. If only I had the foresight to know that the confirmation email would say something different than what the website said at the time of booking...

    I tried to keep my business with Travelocity and tell them another company was cheaper. They said to book the flight and they will match it. They didn't and gave me a 3 hour run around. Don't trust their price guarantee.

    My niece purchased 2 tickets for both her and her boyfriend to travel to the DR in May. Unfortunately the relationship came to a very serious end with involved serious legal issues resulting in the cancellation of the trip. Up to the time of writing, we have been trying to work with Travelocity to get some kind of credit. They keep saying that they cannot issue these credits the airline needed to do so. The carrier Jet Blue issued all the necessary waivers and gave me the waiver code. On calling back Travelocity with the information they then said it could not be done based on their regulations. Throughout the 4 weeks of trying to get this situation rectified I have come across the rudest, most dishonest people ever. I will never ever use TRAVELOCITY again and I advise anyone thinking about using them for travel etc. to forget it. Go elsewhere.

    I was getting airline change complete for ticketing and new airline ticket information was incomplete. It was booked as United Airlines flight but nowhere in the email did it say operated by Air Canada. After waiting to check in at United Counter they sent me to Air Canada counter and by this time I could not make the flight as Air Canada counter actually closes one hour before the flight departs. I never heard of an airline closing their counter before but that's Air Canada.

    I called Travelocity and they review the situation and Agent agrees to issue a credit and then Supervisor comes on the line and said the other agent was misinformed and there would be no refund. In fact he was going to book this ticket as a no show, so I only had an hour before midnight to rebook or forfeit the ticket. I asked why I was lied to by the other agent only to have Supervisor come on and tell me otherwise. He said no one lied, they just pass out false information and that it happens all the time. If you want to get stuck and have a miserable experience traveling then Travelocity is your company.

    I beg any and everyone to boycott this website. The customer service reps are foreign and have no comprehension on communication. ** (manager) was unhelpful, rude, and sarcastic to my issue. ** (with corporate) was even worse! They changed my flight to midnight and didn't notify us until we got our boarding pass. Then when we called to correct the issue - they wanted us to pay $200 p/p to change it to a booked flight. I wouldn't recommend this to Satan himself. No one deserves what they put me through. Boycott please. Read the reviews. They speak for themselves!
