Clear and simple

Very user friendly site
Once you book and lock in your fare, it stays the same. No games played with fares like Farecompare does

Good service
January 11, 2023

Well I was in a jam trying to book with my usual app (Expedia). They ended up charging me twice for the flight insurance and saying the ticket price changed so payment failed. Hours later, So annoyed I searched google and went through smartfares. Was done booking in minutes

Samantha - excellent help
January 11, 2023

I have reached support several times. Even though the website of support itself is a total mess - I had the best customer service imaginable with Samantha. She gave me proper answers on my questions without making me wait and panic. Excellent job.

I called the help desk to select seats, since I'm embarking on long flights and don't want to be stuck in a middle seat. The agents were extremely helpful and understood my needs!

Good
February 10, 2023

It was good. Had a little scare at the beginning when I did not get a confirmation booking within 15hrs upon doing the reservation. Needed to call the cx service and my bank a few times to resolve the tiny issue with the payment. But, all in all it was good since the agents I've talked with did helped me well.

The booking process is sketchy
February 10, 2023

The process of booking, selection of items borders deceitful and sketchy. The reservations are not immediate. And the time the take to send confirmation goes past the free cancellation period and so, you are stuck with the tkt. Bought a checked bag but it was not included in the tkt.

My reservation worked out fine, but it was not clear that there would be an extra charge for a seat reservation until I had already provided my information in the booking. I would prefer to know up front, as the price is less competitive when factoring in the up-charge.
