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 love how cheap the fare is, however, not getting my tickets right away does not sit well with me. It actually brings up a lot of anxiety. They don't tell you until after you book that it can take up to a week for you to get your tickets. I'm really hoping this doesn't backfire...

Really happy with the price, but seemed like pricey options for upgrades for service and insurance. Also didn't like that only could use Amex.

Just a little laggy, overall great

Updated review

Took me three attempts to buy tickets, but after that the process was good. I just don't know what it means when the website said "The airline couldn't confirm the flight."

My 6 year experience on this site
April 10, 2023

I use student universe very often but recently I see the prices are similar to other travel sites and not much difference. Earlier it used to be cheaper here. Overall still a good site but Prices can be better at-least to regular users like me

Everything went much better than expected! It was fast and easy. At some point, I had to call Customer Service and had a very positive experience. I'll definitely use StudentUniverse for future trips.
