Best Available Price
January 23, 2024

It was fairly simple and cheaper than the other providers. The amount was showing and the amount I got charged was slightly different and that is most likely because of the exchange rate. Could have been better if it had outlined that there might be a discrepancy.

Disgusting
January 28, 2024

I made a mistake of the date of booking I called in 3 minutes time after making the booking and I was charged for cancellation to make the right date what a ridiculous decision I made to trust you will never use your services again

This was my first booking with SmartFare and the process was great from beginning to end. Options were presented but not pushed. I was quickly advanced to the payment screen and done within minutes. No distractions or confusion with moving from one screen to the next... As far as online experiences go, this was a 10 out of 10.

You didn't complete my order
February 15, 2024

I started the booking and it was ok, you asked for extra payment for seats and I paid, I believe you have as a normal agent to get my seat, next day I receive the email that I need to call the airline 2 days before the flight to get the seats and the tickets,
If I will not get my seats as we paid I will dispute the extra payment for the seats

When I booked it showed what I owed in Canadian and then when I looked at my visa bill it was a completely different number. I'm booked but can someone explain to me the other charges that were made to change the total?!
