Overall, while some customers report satisfactory experiences, a notable number express dissatisfaction with pricing transparency and support, indicating room for improvement in communication and service consistency.

All good, no hassle. Clear information and quick delivery of my ticket
Quick and effective way of booking. I would definitely recommend it
Booking flights was hassle free and prices were very cheap.
Deception, they sell you one thing and in the end they want to charge double and if you call they tell you that you have to be flexible
I booked my flight through you guys and you canceled it after you told me you'd said me a confirmation
Good experience. Fairly intuitive. Affordable rates. Good service.
I will never order via your website
Your service is very bad abd not fare
Smart fares offers an intuitive interface, quick search results, and useful filters for dates, prices, airlines, and stopovers. Its price-tracking feature and calendar view make finding the best deals simple. Perfect for both novice and frequent travelers.
The fee requested was put on hold and the agent tried to increase the price by 20%, this site is a sham and this type of behaviour should result in the banning of smart fares
Booked my flight, something went wrong on your side. I then phoned the agent and to be able to get the tickets that I booked I had to pay in an additional $300. I needed those said tickets so I was took the booking
Needless to say, that was the first and last time that I used Smartfares
The process was easy and fast, the person who attend me was very professional
NO comment and would like to have a full refund asa possible please!
Very bad. Me vendieron un pasaje que no me pudieron confirmar y la reasiganacion me consta más caro, maravillosa jugada.
I needed to call to confirm my flights, but they were quick and very polite on the phone.
I booked a flight ticket to Tashkent and already paid therefor, when I received a message from SmartFares that the price was increased by nearly US$200.
After I complained, they "agreed" to reduce it, but still higher than the official price of the airline itself (where I finally bought the ticket).
I am still waiting for the refund of the payment made to SmartFares.
I had to back out from my return flight purchases that somehow still went through. I don't understand how my trip for the original flight got lost. Then for me to write to customer service email to be told the email is lost or can't be sent. Now I have to spend extra money a new ticket due to this 'service' just so my already purchased event tickets and fly back tickets don't go to waste!

Very reasonable pricing and best offers compared to other this is the best
I am happy with my purchase thank you. And a few more words to fill 50 characters.
Prices increased in a few seconds after checkout & this had nothing to do with Rand Dollar fluctuations.
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.
Dear Customer,
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced during your booking process.
When we attempted to confirm your reservation, the fare you originally saw was no longer available due to changes in the airline's pricing. While we did our best to adjust the fare for you, we understand this situation was frustrating. Regarding the refund, we’d like to clarify that when a transaction is cancelled, the original authorization typically disappears from your statement within 24-48 hours. However, please note that some banks may not immediately process these updates, which can cause a delay.
If you have any further questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to our customer service team at customerservice@smartfares.com.

Team Smartfares
