From the business

ScholarTrip is a student travel company offering flight deals and discounts for college students and travelers under the age of 26. From our HQ in Dallas, we negotiate special airfares on the world’s biggest and best airlines.

Our core philosophy is that a college education extends way beyond the walls of a classroom, and that student travel helps erase prejudices, sparks passion, and teaches us subjects that can’t be found in a text book. You can’t change the world if you haven’t explored it!

Whether you are planning a weekend getaway, a trip home, a summer backpacking adventure, or a semester or a year studying abroad, we can’t wait to help you book the best flights at the best prices.

I really like that the chat is powered by a live agent. I am also awaiting my scholarship funds to be disbursed for my study abroad experience so being able to book my flight today at no fee was very helpful. Thank you.

I was trying to book flights to and from Thailand through them and sent the exact flight numbers and information to one of their agents only for them to respond by saying they couldn't find the flights. Ultimately, I had to call and email them multiple times and talk to numerous different people over the course of two weeks before my flights were finally booked. I ended up having to pay $400 more than I would have originally had to because of their incompetence. I really do not recommend using them if you don't have to.

My wife and I were very excited because we bought tickets to Brazil last night. But when I woke up this morning, I found out that you're verifying my credit card and that we haven't actually bought the tickets yet and the price isn't guaranteed until the tickets are purchased. This is both unexpected and unpleasant. I verified my credit card earlier this morning, but my purchase is still pending. You should definitely tell people ahead of time that you're going to run this verification and that they should look for these charges and that the purchase isn't confirmed until you complete your verification. I assume it will all work out in the end, but I'm not enjoying the uncertainty right now and can't look for other options in the meantime because if my purchase with you does go through, I'll have booked a nonrefundable ticket. Not a positive experience.
UPDATE: we got our tickets, but in the time it took ScholarTrip to verify my credit card and actually book the tickets, the price had gone up! I've never had the experience before where I purchased the tickets at one price and then had to pay a higher price.

Excellent website for students and professors It is easy to find good prices and deals. I would like the prices could be cheaper than the ones you have now. As students, we have a lot of expenses. Even though I am a professor I am a student too. I am taking my master's in Salamanca, Spain. In order to graduate I require to travel there for my last module and for my graduation.

Great site yet the prices listed were less than the actual prices. Please keep the actual prices updated so that I do not have to go back and forth.
