It was my first time so I was unsure of how it worked (e.g., three separate emails for reservation, flights, and ticket #/airline code) - usually it is in one email response.

Prices increased after confirming
October 25, 2024

Terrible waste of time
I booked the tickets on listed fare and then you called me to tell me that fare is increased by 1500$
When I refused, it was reduced to 500$

Total bull$#*! and cheating

Clear site to use, with a good competitive price and good communication regarding the booking. The process was very smooth and I was able to manage the booking on the airlines site 24 hours later.

A while after booking flight tickets through this website, they sent an email saying they need to raise the price times 3 from what we paid.

Seat Selection is not free
October 22, 2024

I am very regretful to buy this ticket. Seat selection is not free and if I pay for seat selection it is going to be more expensive than qatar official website price.
