SmartFares

Booking with SmartFares was honestly smooth as hell. Found a dope price that beat all the other sites I checked. The process was mad simple, no weird hidden fees or anything sketchy. Got my confirmation fast, and everything was good to go for my trip. Customer service hit back quick too when I had a question. Would def use it again when I travel next time.

So far it has been easy to navigate your website. They followed up with us by phone, mostly to see if we would like the insurance. But were courteous about our choice. We are just waiting for the tickets to arrive in our email box. It did say it could take up to 72 hours since we booked on the weekend. If things continue to progress as expected, we will highly recommend SmartFares.

I have bought the ticket. The next day I received a message saying that the booking didn't go through.
After writing and writing to your operators I received today confirmation for my flight.
Creating a lot of issues with hotels and car rentals in both sides of the this trip.
First time in 35 years of travelling that this happened. I hope the next time will be better!

The operator on the online chat (Otis) was very helpful and friendly.

I booked a flight from Arusha to Zanzibar, using Smartfares because their cheapest fares. A couple a minutes passed before I received a call from Smartfares, telling me that there was a mistake and I had to pay 62% in addition to the original price. There was not any other alternative, but paying that extracost, which was immediately charged by them to my credit card without my confirmation. It was a terrible experience, the first and the last one with Smartfares.

Simple to use so far. My only concern was that I was quoted a price in NZ dollars and charged one that was higher. I suspect that because it really charges US dollars that the exchange rate used in the quote was different from the actual exchange rate. I don't have a seat assignment yet nor was there anyway to specify a vegetarian meal on the long haul section of the trip. These are going to cause me to search out how to do these things (and will probably cost me money for the seat.) hence the 3 stars.

Hi very happy and thank you very much. Could I please be advised as to when I will receive my ticket and also, why is it showing no bags? When I booked it was one cabin bag and one check in bag. Please come back to me.

I was looking for a flight below 800 euro with one stop. All flight where above and the only available one was two stops at 778 euros. I decided to take it even though I didn't want two stops but I made do because of my budget. To my disappointment I was debited 828 euros for the flight instead of the 778 euro. I am really upset because I could have paid that amount for a one stop flight with Qatar air instead of two stops on different flight. I definitely won't be using smart fares again.

Booked international flights through SmartFare and received confirmation that my flights were booked. I was then able to find my record on the airline's website and select seats. So, all seems to be in order for now.

Wouldn't use Smartfares! We recently booked two business class tickets for specific dates and carrier through a comparison site from Australia to Spain and was redirected to Smartfares which we purchased after checking if they were legitimate. We booked, paid, received confirmation and within an hour received a call from San Diego saying there weren't any more seats on the day/flight but if we could switch dates, they could book seats BUT more expensive. Long story short both through the comparison site, direct to the carrier and on Smartfares the dates we originally booked continue to have cheaper fares listed, with "only four seats left" on Smartfares and this is over a week later. We've complained on the same day and asked for the difference in fare cost between what we paid and what's "still available" but nothing except "I've never seen this happen before" from the call center guy.

So reliable and a very good deal. At first I did not trust the website. But I took the risk and everything went well.
The second time I gained confidence because I traveled without any stress and all my bookings were straight.

I didn't have a good experience with the agency because I purchased the ticket, and shortly after, they sent an email saying they had an issue completing the purchase. After spending 30 minutes on the phone, the purchase was finally completed using the same card, but I was charged $50 more because, according to the company, the price had changed. A few hours later, there was a $1,000 purchase attempt on my card under the company's name.

Our first reservation was on hold for many hours and in case we had not called there would have never existed an issuance of the tickets. We had to make an international call as Smartfares only informs a toll number (later we knew they have a 1800 toll free number). After the verification charge that was positive, issuance took time and thanks to Aish it was successfull.
