Quick
March 22, 2023

Quick process. You will get a lot off options that they hope you will approve ( like extra insurance, seating etc). Also after you booked you first only get a confirmation/ reservation, not yet the real booking. The money was also not drawn from my credit card til a day later. But overall good experience for the booking.

Beware
April 20, 2023

Someone called me shortly after booking to sell travel insurance and I declined. They charged my credit card anyway. It was very difficult to get it removed. They said they would cancel it so let's see. What a waist of time. Be careful.

Experience was good. A little unconventional but I guess that is to be expected from a small airline.

I started the session online booking it was $1288.70 then 5 minutes later i finished and the price increased to $1,318. Frustrating! If you could still give it to me this price you'll make me TOTALLY happy!

Hi, this is my first time using SmartFaires. The air fair is competitive, and the booking is relatively easy, but the links in the confirmation email for luggage and seat info don't work. The help desk, however, was helpful.
