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 got such a good deal and was able to talk to a real human on the phone when I had questions!
I like your website. There are a lot of deals for little amount of money and as a student with little budget I can afford the tickets.
I was able to find best deals on internet within few minutes and my booking experience was easy and quick
The customer support team is really good they helped me in resolving my issues while booking
I didnt like the additional and unnecessary request of making me send pictures of the card used, ID of card owner, etc.
I was initially skeptical because I thought it was a fraudster, my mind wasn't at rest at all. Otherwise, the service was good.
Easy to use and the best way to find affordable flights especially if a student
This is the first time that I have used StudentUniverse. It was easy and I'm not very technical. Now let's see how smooth the trip goes.
Gave me what seemed like my best option only on.the last try. Might have been too late. Dean
Hi, sorry for the inconvenience. Our customer service team has reached out. Could you tell us more about your experience? Thanks.
Love student universe- it's easy to use and I love the grid format when choosing flights for a flexible time period.
Booking a ticket was easy and smooth. Tickets were sent in a few hours.
Consistently cheapest flights with fantastic customer service! I look on trip websites and I'm started to just check this website because it's so consistent.
Terrible - I tried booking a million times with multiple diff cards. Didnt go through, finally went through and then they sent me an email that it was cancelled. Then finally tried again the next day and then they didnt get confirmed. I inquired and they wrote to me asking for all my personal details and credit card and photo ID to make sure its a legit match. Only then they finally confirmed my booking.
