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.

Always been happy with SU..
July 26, 2023

The price at the top and on the airline filter never matches the list, but the end price is usually still good and once I got a very good "student only under 25" deal. Very quick to reply if you email them. On balance I always check SU first..

Good Booking
July 26, 2023

The experience was very good. I always retrieve the booking from the Airlines' website and cross verify, and it was okay, the baggage allowance was the same as showed in Student Universe. I could not book the seats in the return flight, as the seat selection was with some added fee, but otherwise, the booking was smooth.

Good deal
July 25, 2023

I have always had trouble finding student deals as I am a non traditional student in her late twenties/early 30s. With prime student account I was able to get a good price.

Great

Relatively easy and user friendly. Wish you could have options to different types of "seat packages" so you don't have to pay for baggage out of pocket.

Bait and switch
August 22, 2023

Tickets were $58 for each of the tickets I purchased yet the charges were $68 a piece and nowhere does it say there would be an extra $10 upcharge for booking through your website.
