Good price and good service
October 10, 2024

I received my booking confirmation. But still worry because this is my first time. I can't say anything further at this moment. Gotta wait until the day I see my trip info on the airline official website. I hope I can board. Anyway, thanks for offering us some discount.

Cheap flight crappy airline
October 10, 2024

I was happy to fly as cheaply as possible, but I was stuck with sun country which means I don't get a carry on. It's okay.

Horrible customer service, they do not care about you at all and will just read off the website information anyone can access. When I asked if there was anything they can do he just repeated what he said before. I was trying to be nice and a considerate customer making sure to say please and in general be nice, but he talked to me like he did not want me to be calling, and he definitely did not want to help me, I waited on hold for over 30 minutes and was not provided any help during the call. They claim a few things on their website, like refunds but it is circumstantial depending on how much extra you pay originally. I am very upset and will not be using student universe ever again.
