READ THE REVIEWS! DON'T! USE THEM
December 11, 2024
Updated review

I booked flights to Italy. We paid for seats we chose.
My daughter upgraded us and i contacted Ovago for a refund for the seats we would not use.
They refused.
After many emails back and forth they offered two 100 vouchers...good for the DAY they sent the email. NOT EVEN ONE DAY!
This is not acceptable...i will never use them again and will warn whoever i can against them.

Please allow us to clarify that, as per the terms and conditions you agreed to, seat assignments are non-refundable and non-transferable, unless the changes or cancellations are initiated by the validating carrier.
We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and truly appreciate your understanding. As a gesture of goodwill, we have issued (2) $100 vouchers which can be used for future travel. These vouchers are valid for 12 months from the issuance date. Should you encounter any issues while using them, please don't hesitate to reach out to us directly. We’d be happy to assist you.

Massive problems
November 15, 2024

I booked a flight on business class from YYZ to USM a few weeks ago.
I specifically spent almost 2 hrs getting that done, selecting the seats with your agent.

I looked on the Philippine Airlines site, which is down more times than not, so I can't even manage my booking on there. Then I go to your Help section (obviously a bot - Violet) and it can't confirm my seats either. What a mess! How then do I know that I have the seats I paid for and selected?

What happens when it's time to check in when I can't even access the Philippine Arlines site?

In all my years of flying (since 1976!) I've never had this much trouble, not even on economy tickets, not to talk of business class.

Your bot can't even provide the business lounges I can use in Toronto or Bangkok!

8 hour layover on the way home
December 13, 2024

Flight was changed from an hour layover to 8 hour layover. Completely unacceptable and will not use Ovago again and probably not done writing reviews on this experience.

Dear Kelly,
Thank you for reaching out to us. According to our records, two reservations were made online. We noticed that both reservations have the same outbound flight; however, they have different return dates. Additionally, there have been no major schedule changes to the itineraries. That being said, we recommend that you check the confirmation sent to the registered email address.

We sincerely apologize for any confusion and hope this clarifies the situation. Should you have any questions or would like to make any changes, please do not hesitate to contact us at any time. We’d be happy to assist!

Ovago's team makes it happen
December 29, 2024

I had both my flights rescheduled. And it was a scary situation. My travel with two elderly family members were spreadout b/w multiple days, with almost no way out. Then came 2 angels from Ovago and their leadership team - Vyastha & Candy. Who told me "Dont worry sir, we will try our best to sort this situation for you." I made several calls and there was a way to reach these superstars. Who did deliver for me and got me re-scheduled on a ticket that met our needs. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. We need people like you and a company like Ovago.

Name mismatch disaster
December 18, 2024

I purchased an international flight ticket on Ovago, without realizing that a "NONE" was added as my middle name in the e-ticket issued by Ovago when I have no middle name on my passport. This almost costed my boarding.

Please fix you website - when a passenger has no middle name, don't put "NONE" as a middle name

Dear Weidong,
Thank you for reaching out to us. Our records indicate that a reservation was made online for one passenger. We noted that you contacted us regarding a name correction on the day of travel, and you were advised to request the carrier to process the modification on their end.

Upon further review of the case, we found that during the online booking process, the word “none” was entered in the middle name field. Please note that the middle name field is optional, and if the passenger does not have a middle name, the field should be left empty.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and appreciate you sharing your feedback with us. We’re pleased to hear that the tickets were exchanged and reissued by the airline. Should you have any further questions, please feel free to contact us at any time.

Terrible experience
July 28, 2024

Ovago completely failed to provide confirmed flights for a family of four, despite receiving full payment. This resulted in significant financial loss, emotional distress, and disruption of important family events. The company's customer service was unhelpful, and the offered resolution was unacceptable. Seeking immediate investigation and full compensation.

Dear Joseph,
Thank you for reaching out to us. According to the booking history, after the tickets were confirmed and issued, an involuntary change occurred in the reservation, resulting in the cancellation of the segments. A thorough investigation confirmed that this action was not initiated by the travel agency. We reached out to the carrier and requested a possible exception, but unfortunately, the segments were not reinstated by the airline, and they refused to waive any associated penalties and fare differences in reissuing the tickets.

Recognizing the urgency of the situation, we reissued the tickets at no additional cost, and a confirmation was shared with your registered email address. We understand that you are seeking compensation; however, we have explored all possibilities for you, and the tickets have been reissued and utilized. We sincerely apologize for the overall inconvenience and thank you for sharing your thoughts with us.

Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at any time.

Awful customer service
December 14, 2024

I booked a flight with Ovago foreseeing a layover at JFK. After some days I was notified that the time for the layover was reduced by 1 hour and I deemed it was too risky to catch the connecting flight. I asked to rebook the in bound flight to an earlier one which was available. They kept promising that it would be confirmed within 24-48 hours. But nothing happened, nobody recontacted me, I had to call everyday to check status, having to re-explain everything to someone who would repeat the same story over and over.
Finally after 2 weeks and endless calls they wrote me that the flight could not be changed.

In summary: Ovago, never again

Dear Paolo R,
Thank you for reaching out to us. Based on the booking history, an involuntary schedule change initiated by the carrier occurred after the ticket was issued and confirmed. To address this, we submitted a request to the airline to change the first segment to an earlier flight. Unfortunately, this request was declined. According to the carrier, there is no need to process an exchange, as all flight segments are validated.

We certainly understand your frustration and sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this has caused. Rest assured, we are more than willing to assist you while adhering to the airline's guidelines. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at any time. We’d be happy to assist!

Multiple Itinerary Changes Caused Travel Delay
November 14, 2024

When my husband and I booked our trip to Egypt, we booked it in February for this month (November). My husband traveled ahead of myself and our three kids because he was scuba diving before we joined him for a family trip. They wouldn't let me book the four of us (myself and the three kids) on one reservation, so I had to book a reservation for my son and I and then for my other two children on another reservation. Over time, as the reservations kept getting changed due to flight schedule changes, I had to confirm those changes. Each time, I tried to assure that all four of us still had the same itinerary. I called Ovago's customer service several times, and each time they assured me that all four of us would be on the same flights. We arrived at the airport this morning, and our reservations were different. Because I was the only guardian traveling, and my reservation was earlier than my two kids on the separate reservation, they wouldn't let us fly. I had to call Lufthansa Airlines myself to reschedule and was on the phone with them for 2 hours. We had purchased a tour, and the kids and I will miss the first day (including the Giza pyramids and the Sphinx) due to this mixup. I've read some other bad reviews of similar things happening (they continue to change the itineraries until people cancel). I wouldn't recommend this company for booking flights.

Dear Mary Lee,
Thank you for reaching out to us. Our records indicate that involuntary schedule changes initiated by the carrier affected your reservation. As a result, the airline reissued your tickets. It was noted that all flight segments were utilized, except for the last segment. We have since contacted the carrier on your behalf and requested a refund for the unused portion. We’re pleased to confirm that the refund has been processed to the original form of payment used during the booking.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and appreciate you sharing your thoughts with us. Should you require any further assistance, please feel free to contact us at any time.

Tickets purchased from Ovago with a transfer in Milan. The confirmation email makes it seem like a regular transfer, only when I am at the departure airport the airline informs me that I have to go through customs in Milan collect my bags and check-in with the second airline - all in 2 hours while hoping for no delays. Be warned, Ovago will put you in this situation and will claim no responsibility for it. Once you purchase your ticket you will be on your own - oh except the incessant phone calls you will receive to sell you extras until the day of your flight.

Dear Can Ersoy,
Thank you for reaching out to us. Our records confirm that this reservation was made online. Please note that we do not handle visa-related concerns, and it is the passenger’s responsibility to ensure all travel requirements are met. All necessary details, including airline record locators, flight schedules, layover timings, and reminders about plane changes, were sent to your registered email address after completing the booking process.
It is important to mention that if your booking includes more than one airline reservation code, even with the same airline, a self-transfer may be required. According to the booking history, all segments were fully utilized. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. If you require further assistance, please feel free to contact us anytime.

Its a Scam, Run Away
February 12, 2023

This company is horrible to deal with when booking flights, almost impossible to rebook if you have to reschedule your flight and DO NOT pay Airline credit retention fee of $75. You will lose that as well. Whole service is like a call center scam where they are fooling their customers on everyday basis.

Double Charging
February 21, 2022

Essentially, this company has a criminal refund policy even when specific airlines cancel the flights (which means they compensate you for the money you spent on the tickets) and will attempt to double charge you with fees and seat prices. We booked and selected flights from this website only for the main airlines to not accept it and try to charge us again. When trying to rectify the situation with their online help center, they just kept repeating information from my previous messages and offered no real solution. It is now painfully clear that there is some sort of scam going on and this company needs investigation from the better business bureau. The customer service is abysmal and will give you a splitting headache, especially as large sums of money are on the line. Save yourself some time and worry and avoid this company like the plague.

Scammers
September 8, 2023

It is scam company, they do not provide any about your ticket type is it flexible or none refundable. They gonna lie it is via company policy but after contacting AA they confirmed that it is not true. I wish I read reviews about them before got involved with them. Now they are trying to CONvince that they were showing that ticket not refundable which is a lie. Read all others reviews and stay away from this company.

Horrible company
June 10, 2023

I purchased a ticket to Peru. They charged me twice for the same name, same itinerary, and same day. I could not get them on the phone and,"chatted" with literally 10 different people who all gave me different answers and said someone would contact me within 24 hours. No one ever did. I wrote a strongly worded email and I received a response that said, Congratulations! Your issue has been resolved. I'm still waiting on my $1200.

Worst Service Ever
September 21, 2023

Worst service ever! These guys are actual scammers. I bought a ticket at a price but they send me an email we are processing it. After being on hold for hours, they tell me that the prices has changed no, so you need to pay more for us to confirm it. If your system is made of wood and you are slow, then don't run an agency. Then, they asked me to confirm the cancellation which was the end of patience. I hate these ****.
