FlyFar CAReviews 327

I booked my flight through Flyfar, I am due to leave in the morning. I then received an email saying my flight was pending. I called them to ensure everything was ok, they replied stating I needed to pay a further 120 dollars because the flight price had increased while I was typing in my details i. E. passport number etc.

I asked for an immediate refund allowing me to book an urgent flight through another company however this takes 8-9 business days!? I now dont have enough money to go in the early morning.

DO NOT USE.

You wont flyfar at all with this agent operating from India, all the nonsense you will get, I booked and paid in full for a ticket Perth to Doha and guess what the airline change their schedule FLYFAR wouldn't inform me of the changes, they blame it on the Airline, then the airline blame it on them so I'm the customers getting passed around. They operate in FREAKIN India the land of scammers therefore our ombudsman cant touch them, the only way to bring these guy down is to put all your efforts on social media and shut them down by economic means.

I booked roundtrip tickets from NYC to SF and FlyFar offers the lowest prices. During checkout, FlyFar DOES NOT specify that it is a Canadian company and there will be foreign transaction fees for any international flight outside of Canada. It was only after my flight was booked and confirmed that I was informed that the price on the confirmation page is only based on the CAD to US exchange rate of that specific day. Also to make things worse, my tickets are non-refundable.

At the end, the money that I thought I have saved went to foreign transaction fees for EACH FLIGHT on my credit card. I am very disappointed with FlyFar and I DO NOT recommend using their website to book flights.

Cheapest flight by far, booked through them. Didn't receive a ticket or boarding pass (my flight was for that night). After hours of trying to contact them they finally answered and sent me my pass. Everything was fine, I was so scared it wouldn't work and I had gotten scammed but I didn't! But then, a few days later I had seen I was charged an extra 200 from Alaska this time (not their site). Was extremely mad and called and they said they would look into it, fly far did end up taking care of it after a few days. So it was pretty stressful, but successful in the end. Saved myself $200! But their customer service sucks...

They may give the cheapest price but make sure nothing happens where you have to change the flight during your trip. They will charge you more than half of what you paid for the round trip. Called Fiji Air to change reservations on return trip and they changed it with out charge but informed us we would have to contact flyfar.ca for final confirmation. On doing so Flyfar.ca said they are charging more than half of what we paid for the complete trip. Too bad since it cost them nothing. Spoke with a few people with the same reply. Guaranteed there will be no more bookings with them. It would have been better booking with the airlines instead of this company.

They charged my CAD187 for a $410 purchase! And they managed to hide their service charge all along, until I receive the credit card alert.

Don't book through FlyFar. They let you book a low price, just to send you an email 1h later saying the price is higher with excuse that their system was not updated at the moment of booking. Not true. The prices are still the same after several hours. Exactly as described by other people here: they are useless plus problematic. They take your money immediately, but to get it back to book a decent flight you need to wait 24-48h. If you want to avoid problems avoid FlyFar. They really should get closed down.
