Overview

StudentUniverse generally enjoys a positive reputation for providing affordable travel options, particularly for students and young travelers.

However, the company faces notable criticism regarding its customer service, particularly during high-demand promotions, where long wait times and difficulties in reaching support representatives are common concerns. Issues with confirmation and communication further detract from the overall experience. While customers appreciate the value offered, enhancing customer service responsiveness could significantly improve satisfaction levels.

Pleasantly Surprised
June 5, 2024

The website was user friendly. I don't like paying for seat fees when I book business class but your fare was quite a bit lower than others. I didn't like the fact that "premium economy" and "business class" fares were not clearly shown.

I ended up booking a ticket which said world traveller and never said basic economy. Turns out it was not regular economy but basic. Wrong advertising.

Good service
May 28, 2024

I recently purchased a flight ticket through Student Universe, and my experience was fantastic. The platform is incredibly user-friendly, making it easy to search for and compare flights. As a student, I appreciated the special discounts and deals available, which significantly reduced the cost of my travel.

The booking process was straightforward and efficient. After selecting my preferred flight, I quickly received confirmation and all the necessary details. Additionally, their customer service was responsive and helpful when I had a question about my itinerary.

Overall, Student Universe offers great value for students looking for affordable travel options. I highly recommend it for its convenience, affordability, and excellent service. I'll definitely be using it again for future travel plans.

I booked a ticket once. I got charged twice
It required too much effort to get double charged money back.even customer care service is not impressive.I will not prefer this website for booking in future.

Hi Ronak, it might be just a pending transaction and would be canceled shortly. We also sent you a follow-up email asking if you could forward a copy of the statement reflecting two charges or a proof. Thanks!

Very thorough and very informative
June 14, 2024

After booking multiple flights to arrive and depart from my upcoming study abroad trip, one of my flights was changed shortly after. Because of this, I had to call Student Universe to confirm the flight reschedule they had done for me. When calling to confirm the changes, the service was incredibly friendly and diligent about double-checking with me about my specific flights that I'd be boarding, to make sure I was aware of exactly what I'd be getting into.
