January 15, 2023

Después de leer comentarios negativos, dude en realizar la compra pero al ver que aceptaba PayPal fue más seguro y el vuelo a buen precio a comparación de otros sitios. Volvería a comprar sin duda.

Simple
February 14, 2023

First time use this website to book a flight. I was able to pick my departure and return flight easy. However, there are too many extra optional charges to choose from. Not really use to that considering that I book through Delta, AA, United or JetBlue.

Stressful experience
February 13, 2023

The ticket cost end up not being what was advertised.
SmartFare took too long to get in touch and explain reasons for not processing payment.
1) credit card payment was pending for hours. The airline had changed the fare form what was originally posted, which was misleading. And I did not canceled because there would be a fee.
2) when I was finally able to speak on the phone, the fare had changed, there was a long waiting time to resolve issue
3) too many steps to confirm information through external sites "traveler Helpdesk" it looked like phishing emails.
4) it took three calls to get to the cause for fare change and payment delay. The interface and App could be improved in that sense.

UNLCLAIR INFRMATION ON THE WEB PAGE
February 13, 2023

When you are going to book, the Smarthfares page does not give you a transparent information about the baggage. Also there was a confusing option like "adding a bag + bag protection" which eventually turned out to be just a protection and NO bag. Also when I called SmartFares, one of the assistants just did not want to give me any information, the other one did, but the information later turned out not to be correct. Well, there are many things I could say are very poor. I would not return to book with SmarthFare. I have done booking with many other web agents for flights and this has been the worst experience so far. There are many more web agents who give much more exact informaton about what you are gonna get with your purchase.
