Easy to get in touch with
November 4, 2022

We did get a callback about change in rates and over-booked flights, but they redeemed themselves by following up finding us a similar flight. It's not easy finding affordable flights during peak season so grateful for good communication and follow-up:-)

Low fare, quick booking
November 4, 2022

I went with smartfares because the price for the ticket was the lowest I could find (even the airline website was a bit more expensive). Only downside, I got a call next morning trying to sell me the insurance coverage for additional $40, the person on the phone gave me false information and I ended up buying it, but after reviewing the documents sent to me it turned out that the coverage is not what the person claimed to be and I canceled (they give you 10 days to review and cancel the insurance). Turns out my credit card already provides the same coverage.

Excellent Service
November 3, 2022

It was my first time using SmartFares, but I found the rates to be very competitive. I also chose an option to preselect seat by error, and the Chat Staff was so helpful. I got confirmation of refund within good time, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone, as well as use it again.

Paid for my flight, got the confirmation from the airline, and then an email to confirm that everything went alright from the company.

My sons name was combined, but that happens pretty often even when I'm booking directly with airlines.

Hopefully the rest of the trip is as smooth, RJA has changed out flight plans before.

Scammers
December 3, 2022

I booked two tickets for flights on smartfares the price of each ticket shown on the website was in Canadian dollars was 506 each. I should have been charged 1012 total for the tickets. I also paid extra 48.99 Canadian dollars for payment protection for cancellation within twenty four hours. My credit card was charged 1155 dollars. I immediately wrote them about overcharge. They deliberately replied after 24 hours so that I was not able to cancel the flights. I wrote them repeatedly but no response. They are scammers and price shown on the website is misleading and the customer service is also poor. I would never book with them. I felt cheated by smartfares and won't recommend anyone.
