Excellent service and lowest price
December 21, 2022

Great service and very reasonable price. But when I called to agent he was not able to give me cheaper price than online prices. I thought if I call I May get more discount. But I booked online and I got the best price. Thank you!

The reservation was confirmed and the tickets were issued quickly, and that's great. I had, however, paid about $80 for 4 checked bags and insurance on those bags, and those checked bags were ultimately not included in the reservation. From your website, it looked like they would be. I reached out to costumer service and I was told that that's up to the airline. The reservation summary suggests that adding those bags would cost 105 per bag, making the cost of the trip significantly higher. I did not expect this charge. Your website should be clearer on the fact that the $19.95 do not actually give you a right to any checked bags.

Paid for sear assignments. Turns out, it was not an option. The customer service did advise me that I am due a refund for seat assignments payments that I rendered. Other than than that every thing is tracking well.
