The worst
April 26, 2025

This is the first time a travel agency hasn't honored my reservation. The excuse is too unbelievable, and then they offer me a flight plan I don't like. I would never recommend you.

Dear Customer,

Greetings from Smartfares!

Thank you for your feedback regarding your recent experience with us. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you encountered and would like to address your concerns.

Please note that our fares are dynamic and subject to change based on availability and demand. Upon reviewing your case, we found that your booking could not be processed due to a credit card decline. Additionally, one of our representatives attempted to contact you multiple times without success. Unfortunately, because we did not receive a response, and due to the dynamic nature of airfare pricing, the fare changed, and the booking was subsequently canceled.

If there is anything further we can do to assist you with a new reservation or if you have any additional concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact us directly at customerservice@smartfares.com.

We appreciate your understanding.

Best regards,

Oman

Not satisfied
April 24, 2025

I'm not satisfied because I bought the plane tickets and also paid for the checked baggage, but at check-in the payment didn't appear, so I had to pay again.

Pésimo servicio
April 23, 2025

Tuve problema con mi tarjeta para pagar la reservación, llamé para intentar hacerlo por teléfono y me dijeron que la tarifa había cambiado, que había subido de precio 1,200 usd, sin embargo en la página la tarifa había bajado, así que no compré los boletos con ustedes

Thank you for sharing your recent experience with us. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you may have encountered and appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns.

Please note that our fares are dynamic and fluctuate based on availability and demand. Upon reviewing your case, we identified that your booking could not be completed due to a declined credit card. Additionally, due to the inherently variable nature of airfare pricing—where fares frequently change and the original fare displayed on our website may no longer be available—this resulted in a fare adjustment. Following your request to cancel the reservation, we processed the cancellation accordingly.

If you have any further questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us directly at customerservice@smartfares.com.

Thank you for your understanding and patience.

Regards,
Team SmartFares

UNSATISFIED
April 23, 2025

Very unhelpful and can't resolve any issue. DO NOT USE! I've been trying to get a refund, but they don't care or call me back. Lack of English language on the phone causes more issues.

Publicidad engañosa
April 23, 2025

Fue fácil buscar el vuelo y hacer la reserva, pero no me gustó que me hayan cobrado más dinero de lo que decía en la página, porque fue sorpresa que me cobraran más dinero sin tener conocimiento, simplemente me descontaron de mi tarjeta un mayor valor y no sé por qué razón, eso es arbitrario y publicidad engañosa
