A heads up for skyscanner - I would be dumping the booking "partner" called bravofly, as it is as shady as they come. I know it is not skyscanners booking process that is at fault but they DO promote bravoflly. Bravofly present with very deceptive and tricky practises when booking, and it does NOT reflect well on skyscanner. I assume they get revenue from bravofly for clickthroughs. I have used aggregators a lot in the past, but would avoid skyscanner like the plague as they support dodgy players that damage the tourism industry.
My flight left 2 hours late, missed my connecting flight, and was expected to pay a lot extra for a new flight and pay for the hotel because they couldn't get a flight sooner the same day. My price was a lot more than what I would have paid if I had used Google flights. I got to my destination 1.5 days later than planned and paid +$800 extra. No savings at all.
I have had a terrible experience with Skyscanner. This company promotes lastminute.com which is a scammer. I bought tickets for my family. Everything seemed quite normal, I bought luggages for the whole travel and requested for special assistance. After the transaction completed I expected to receive a quick confirmation but I didn't receive any until I asked the next day. However, this confirmation was a disaster as it did not include baggage for inbound tickets. Moreover no confirmation of special assistance. I asked them to correct this. They told me that I have only paid for outbound luggages and not for inbound which is absolutely nonsense. I asked Skyscanner to help me but the only thing they did was to forward my complaint to lastminute.com and nothing else. I kept writing to both of these companies and the latter denies their responsibility. Due to possibility of fare increase by passage of time, I bought the same tickets and for the same dates from a reliable website. So at the moment I have paid twice for the same travel: once without any e-tickets and without the services I have paid for to lastminute.com and via Skyscanner and the other time with my genuine e-tickets. I am going to make a formal complaint against these two companies. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I should add that when I sent this review on trustpilot, someone called Martina replied by saying that my case is being dealt with by their colleague Neil and that I should ask him for assistance, this is nonsense as Neil has only forwarded my email to lastminute.com and has never responded to my repeated emails. So they in fact are collaborating with lastminute.com in emptying people's money!
The companies that skyscanner is cooperate are not to be trusted. Do not lose money on this companies.
The best app for finding the cheapest and fastest flights to your destination. I use it since years for all my trips
Best websites to find the cheapes flights, super fast, user friendly and most important it makes you save a lot of money.
It offers much more options than its analogs. Always use this one when I'm planning a trip. And it's also safe: you don't have any risk of buying fake tickets.
Skyscanner just directed me to another website called Kiss&Fly, which is definitely the worst website I have ever used, I will never use it again.
Use them a lot in the last few years. Some of the tickets are real deal!
Found out, the price may differ on different version of the website. The cheapest prices were on the UAE and Qatar versions :)
At first when I started using SkyScanner, I thought it would be super helpful in terms of searching flights, but then I found out it was absolutely misleading website, you put info in, pick your return flights but it then sends you to the sites where those prices are totally different!
I love the search feature to select your airport and it can tell many possible destination on your days or month. Absolutely recommend this for your vacation and cheap flight searches. Could have given 5 stars if had multiple airport search support.
I try skyscanner very easy to use, it always provide fmfind lots of quote from different airline ot enables me to compare the pricing easily
The prices are not always the same as they look like but if you want to find the best match - this website is where you probably should look for it. And it shows you all the possible flights to every destination you need.
Since I know this website I always fly anywhere with the cheapest fare! This website is super amazing, you can also download the apps version both works perfectly fine. If you find the fare is not cheap enough dont worry! All you have to do is turn on the price notifications and it will inform you once the price goes down!
I used this site to book flights to Vietnam. It's really easy to see when to fly for the cheapest flights. I love that the site has the visual of the monthly calendar with colour-coded dates so you can when are the cheapest dates. The only downside is that most of the flights that are offered don't include checked bags. This is bad especially when you want to fly long-distance and you will need a checked bag.
IF YOU HAVE AN ISSUE WITH A TICKET PROVIDER, BUT YOU HAVE FOUND IT USING SKYSCANNER TRY TO CONTACT SKYSCANNER SUPPORT.
Skyscanner support can be VERY HELPFUL in your case.
In my case I have lost all my hope that Mytrip.com will ever return my money. They did not act honestly and transparently, trying to discourage me to fight about my money any more.
But Skyscanner support have joined the case. Thanks to their very helpful actions Mytrip.com finally have returned all money what I have payed before (3 months ago), for the ticket, what I have never got.
I checked this website because I wanted to buy cheap flights to attend a congress. I set an alarm on this site and it emailed me when flights were cheap. So I'm super happy with it! I'll use it again in the near future.
Good prices however once you go on the website to complete the booking, by the time you make the payment the prices are increased! Not accurate most of the time
Wonderful app that is so easy to navigate and book your travel needs. Very reasonable prices. And the fact that there is an app is perfect.
They sometimes gives glitches in the prices. Once I booked my flight for manchestor when I proceed for final payment the fare got changed suddenly.
Answer: It's a legit company. I have flown with them a few times.
