Today I had ticket from Amsterdam to CCU (India). I booked Pegasus and Indigo combination. Flight route was Amsterdam to Istanbul, Dubai and New Delhi and CCU - kolkata. My ticket price was ******* INR, but all total I spent around ******* INR. As in Dubai for transfer between Pegasus to IndiGo I had to get on arrival visa. Which costs more than 3000 INR even for checked in bag in Pegasus I had to pay 38 EUR additional.

I booked this ticket through Skyscanner but unfortunately they had not mentioned clearly that I will need visa in Dubai airport. This is just harrasment. In future I will try to avoid connecting and try to avoid Skyscanner to book tickets.

Thanks

I have been using intensive sky scanner website for my last year trips. Bought dozens of flight tickets in Europe and south east asia using their search enginee. I never had problems when i have bought the flight tickets from airlines. All issues appear when using shady travel agency such Go to Gate and god knows how many are there. The problem i have is regarding quality of travel agencies whick your website list them, especially with GoToGate travel agency, which declined the refund. It have been already 6 months since im trying to get my refund back, the charcgback is still in pending and today i have received an email from GotoGate which informs me theres another 60 days delay in order to get my refund back.
In my opinion Sky Scanner is legit, but being associated with those scam companies and refusing to delist them, make them a scam as they are. I rate them with 1 star and i will never use Sky Scanner again until they clean their yard and remove those scam travel agencies.

I have been using SkyScanner since January 2014. SkyScanner works with booking all different types of airlines. I've notice that SkyScanner can be used in a good way or a bad way. Depending on where you are located, and the time of year, you can find cheap flights on SkyScanner going to different places all over Europe. Some flights may have long layovers, and other flights may be direct. When I flew from Naples to Luxembourg it took me about 5 hours. Even though, I had a layover it wasn't that long. As long as you plan well and do not fly with a lot of layovers, this is a good site to use.

Here are two ways to buy tickets:

1 - you buy on the Skyscanner website, it redirects you to the agency where you pay, there is a risk that the agency will be fake.

I also bought it, but less. I like the second option more.

2 - you will find out in which agency or airline prices are lower and buy on their website or application.
I buy tickets for vueling, transavia and other lowcaster.

I had booked a flight Mackay - Brisbane - Sydney return but due to covid could not travel and had a credit with them. Need to fly Mackay - Brisbane and got confirmation from the airline and Skyscanner / Trip.com that I could use my credit but at the time Skyscanner / Trip.com said try later as the airline doesnt have the seat class available for my dates, couldnt tell me what dates they were available for and said use another date basically guess what dates or try again in two months. I tried again and they said no problem I might have to pay the difference in airfares which I said fine. My original flights cost $250. They came back to me and said that I must pay in $300 as that is the difference in airfares when I know that I could book with the airline directly and pay less than $250. Dont treat me like a fool

Skyscanner is showing flights from very shady unknown companies that offer up flights that don't exist or maybe were canceled some time ago. These shady companies will gladly take your money and fight to not give you a refund. For example an Air China flight from IAH to TSN is showing for $5077 on May 19th on Skyscanner using Hop2, Justfly and several other unknown outfits. Air China currently offers NO flights on this route. Maybe they some months ago before Covid-19 but these places will still take your money offering tickets on a non-existing flight. The reviews on these companies are terrible. Maybe some of these companies are the same with just different names. Very disappointed.

I booked a Ticket from Heathrow to the Philippines for my partner through Skyscanner, Big Mistake, arriving 4 hours before dept, so time to do the extra health check required that day, At the check in the iphone app would not work, even the staff tried. So she was denied boarding and said no problem contact your booking company Skyscanner, its free so no charge for a new seat,
Skyscanner demanded £275 for admin and Airport taxes, Emirates said that is not true, they just trying to get more money, with no choice we took the new ticket for the next day but were kept waiting for feedback and progress, everytime i asked for confirmation and E Tickets were promised but nothing, with time passing i had spoken with so many different agents was getting no where,
I called them 2 hours before the plane departs and complained bitterly the stress this was putting us under and finally the advisor sent me the tickets with no concern or apology. Next timewill book direct or high street

This is a garbage website and I would highly recommend that no one should waste their time with. I spent an entire morning just trying to buy two tickets. Each time it would send me to their partner website, Travel Up, that would tell me (over and over) that the flights were not updated and that my purchase could not go through. Each time I would get them on the phone, there was NO ATTEMPT to fix the problem by trying to put my purchase through, only Travel Up trying to sell me a more expensive ticket, which seemed to be quite routine for them.
I will NEVER use Skyscanner or Travel Up again. I recommend that you do not either. They are a WASTE OF TIME.

I've been ripped off to the tune of £800 by a company called FLYSHARP who sell flights through the SKYSCANNER website. Don't even think about using FLYSHARP as they are cowboys if the highest order but I was expecting more from SKYSCANNER but they've more or less washed their hands of it. Something is seriously adrift here folks. Do not book flights through either FLYSHARP or SKYSCANNER or you will live to regret it, like me. Book directly through airline websites only.

This company is a total scam, do not go down this path. You will never get the prices advertised on this site.

It doesn't show flights from russian airports thus made me confused with this misleading information. How can you trust this site if it shows you only what they want to show?

Please avoid using skyscanner, i have booked GOL airlines through them to go from sao paulo to rio de janero SKYLV-*******, i arrived one hour before the flight and GOL did not allow me to board and also requested me to pay the same original price once more to try to catch the next flight, which is complete chaos and robbery, so i just left the airport. By contacting skyscanner, they are denying any help or refund or even issuing a compensation ticket even though i did not miss the flight and that was an attempt of theft from GOL airlines.
I am not going to leave skyscanner alone and will start to sue them, its not going to end well for sure.
As an advice, please use expedia its alot better and safer as skyscanner is too shady.
