StudentUniverse Reviews Summary

StudentUniverse generally enjoys a positive reputation for providing affordable travel options, particularly for students and young travelers. Customers frequently commend the competitive pricing and ease of booking, often highlighting significant savings on flights. However, the company faces notable criticism regarding its customer service, particularly during high-demand promotions, where long wait times and difficulties in reaching support representatives are common concerns. Issues with confirmation and communication further detract from the overall experience. While customers appreciate the value offered, enhancing customer service responsiveness could significantly improve satisfaction levels.

I was refunded by the Airline one day after booking although the status of reservation was still confirmed on StudentUniverse's website. So I made a call and had everything figured out, everything was set and I'd be charged again. Really great and helpful customer services, btw!

Overall decent
May 8, 2024

The booking process was streamlined, however, one thing that I wish was that all flight options available would be seen after you first initially choose the departing flight, not just the ones associated with that airline.

Weird issues
May 8, 2024

For some reason the app wouldn't let me make the same type of search for some reason. Only until I tapped "same search" about 10 times would it load.

It was good except for the checkout. The end donation pop up was quick and the button to donate was so close to the done button that I misclicked it and it charged me for the donation when I didn't want to. Oh well.

Cheap!
May 7, 2024

I had never heard of StudentUniverse until Kayak showed that it had the cheapest booking option for a flight, and I had a great experience! It was easy to use, and was somehow so inexpensive compared to any other website.

Fast and efficient booking
May 7, 2024

It was a smooth experience for me. I had used Student Universe before multiple times and they are one of the best 3rd party websites for booking flights, offering considerable discounts for students. I have had pleasant experiences on pretty much all of bookings I have made, barring maybe one. I would totally recommend Student Universe to other people.
