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.

Smooth experience
September 12, 2024

This is the 4th time I have bought tickets on StudentUniverse. I always get tickets at a cheaper rate and I never had any trouble with rescheduling stuff.

Overall, everything was great! I had an issue and called customer support. The person helping me (whose name I forget, unfortunately) was outstanding. He provided customer support as good or better than any I have ever experienced. If there is anything StudentUniverse can to for him to recognize his outstanding service, please do it- a promotion, a bonus,...
Thank you!

Works as advertised
September 11, 2024

I was looking for cheap flights, I found cheap flights. The filters were helpful and overall it was pretty straightforward. Any issues I had with not being able to find the exact ideal time for a flight is probably more so on the airline itself and not on this website.

Extremely easy and saves money.
September 11, 2024

I checked out sky scanner app for my flight and it directed me to this site for purchase. It was fast, free, really easy for technically challenged people like myself and it was the best price.

Quick and easy and all fees at once given. Fewer tricks, however, the cancellation or moving the tickets are very expensive

Reasonable prices, good selection of airlines. A lot of hidden fees but that's just the way airlines do business now. Saves a lot of money for students who need to travel
