SmartFares Reviews Summary

SmartFares presents a mixed reputation among its customers. On the positive side, many users appreciate the affordability and efficiency of the booking process, noting that customer service representatives can be helpful and responsive when issues arise. However, significant concerns persist regarding discrepancies between quoted prices and final charges, as well as frustrating experiences with customer service, particularly related to refunds and booking confirmations. 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.

You advertised a false price, took my card and personal details, then tried to make me pay more by demanding I telephone you because (fortunately) my credit card had not worked. You're con artists. Everyone must avoid this company, they are scammers, fraudsters.

Got confirmed tickets quickly which was great, but the platform itself tried to do a lot of hard selling which did not help the experience...

Some issues with the labelling of airports with different names and airport codes. I had to do some research to make sure I had the right flight!

Luggage allowance
January 17, 2025

Be diligent on reviewing baggage allowance. Despite being advertised as standard economy class ticket vs economy light ticket, it turned out there was no luggage allowance attributed to the standard ticket.
