I booked through SmartFares for the first time after finding it via Google. The fare was shown in euros (€580), and there was no mention that the charge would be processed in US dollars. After payment, I received an email showing a $688 charge, higher than expected due to currency conversion. I accepted it reluctantly but was already concerned by the lack of pricing transparency. Later I noted €623 was already reserved on my credit card for this booking. The next issue was even more frustrating: I was told the booking wasn't confirmed yet, only reserved, and I'd get confirmation later. If nothing came within 48 hours, I was advised to call a number—which turned out to be unresponsive. Other numbers didn't work either. The email address on their site bounced back. Only the US-based number connected, where I was told to wait until the office opened. I also sent out a message via chatbot. Finally I reached a representative who told me the booking had failed due to one flight segment being unconfirmed. He offered a confirmation if I would pay another $20 and informed that he has already discounted the higher price by applying a coupon. At that point, I requested a cancellation which was done in the system while I received a message to urgently call back due to an issue with my booking. Finally spoke to someone very responsible, who confirmed the cancellation, assured me a refund would be issued, and emailed the confirmation. While one or two agents were helpful, the overall experience was poor—misleading pricing, broken contact details, and delayed or missing communication. It took a lot of effort to get basic support. I was left feeling misled and frustrated, and I won't be using SmartFares again.
Dear Customer,
Thank you for your feedback. We sincerely apologize for any confusion or inconvenience caused.
Upon reviewing our records, we found that you made a reservation on 8 May, 2025. Unfortunately, your booking could not be processed due to a credit card decline. One of our representatives contacted you on the same day to inform you of this issue. As per your request, the booking was subsequently canceled.
Regarding the fare, please note that selecting a currency other than USD is intended to display the equivalent fare in your preferred currency. However, on the final booking page, just above the 'BOOK' button, the total trip cost is clearly displayed in USD. We recommend verifying the currency conversion details with your bank, as the conversion process is managed by your credit card issuer. This will help ensure clarity regarding the final amount charged.
We truly value your business and hope to have the opportunity to serve you in the future. If you have any further questions or require assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us at customerservice@smartfares.com.
Thank you for choosing our services.

Smartfares deducted more money that what was necessary, and I have not been reimbursed with the difference. I have sent numerous emails regarding the issue, and the last email just stated that it will be reviewed, but nothing happened after that. Smartfares still owes me the difference. Please refer to previous emails. If need be, I will forward it all again.

Answer: Smartfares! They will offer a deeply discounted airfare and send you a confirmation number to your email. The next day you will receive an email to call them immediately because they were unable to confirm your flight. When you call them back, they will try to sell you another flight at a much higher price. SCAM SCAM AVOID!
Answer: I could no agree more. They are also very rude. Did not received my confirmation until a day before departure and I had to call them to get it. When I asked how to check in as they booked me with 2 different airlines they responded can you read?

Answer: Yes. They stated because of flight increase they canceled my flights. Then they wanted me to pay a balance of what the new increase was. So disappointing. I paid for four fares. They took the funds from the bank n then canceled my flights.
