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.

Easy and Great Price
March 9, 2023

Booking through StudentUniverse was easy and the prices were better than Kayak and other consolidators. They were even super helpful when I discovered after booking that I had auto-populated incorrect biographic data. The fixed the problem with no hassle.

It's my third or so time booking with StudentUniverse for a transatlantic trip. I've always had a great experience finding great deals on otherwise more expensive flights.

Good experience booking
March 8, 2023

Very good prices and very smooth booking process. Just one concern - it's not 100% if any special requirements apply to the rates like being a student.

Prompt and patient human service.
March 7, 2023

Almost immediately after I had problems purchasing tickets online, I was contacted by phone to help me with manual ticketing and updated prices. This was really nice, and the experience of buying tickets at StudentUniverse was utterly unexpected. The tickets are affordable, and the service is really excellent!
