StudentUniverse Reviews Summary

StudentUniverse generally enjoys a positive reputation for providing affordable travel options, particularly for students and young travelers. Customers frequently commend the competitive pricing and ease of booking, often highlighting significant savings on flights. 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.

The flexible plan is great.
April 21, 2023

There is a flexible plan which allowed me to change the ticket to a day in a week. Which is really great for a flexible uncertainly plan.

Thanks for the review! Pro tip: if departure date can be flexible, click "flexible" when you search flights and you can see the lowest prices of the week. Have a nice trip!

Good experience so far. Do I need school ID card to board? Your response would help me understand the situation better.

Hi Olamide, thanks for choosing StudentUniverse. Usually you do not need to present your Student ID at the airport, but we would recommend bring a copy (or at least have a digital copy in phone) just in case. Have a great trip!

The transaction was easy and although it was a bit expensive I thought it was good that I was still able to get a ticket on short notice.

Easy and Affordable
April 19, 2023

It took only a matter of minutes to find my flight and go through the process of placing my order. The prices were cheaper than any of the other travel discounts available to me.

Very misleading payment info
May 18, 2023

The service in Canada is so bad... The website shows US Dollars but with very limioted or no tip that it is US dollar not Canadian dollar.

Hi Suzy, sorry you felt that way. When you visit www.studentuniverse.com and search flights, we do display a message "Prices are per person in US Dollar and are inclusive of all taxes" and another one at the end of the search result page. At the checkout page, we show "Total cost (USD)" by the total amount. However, if you wish to pay in CAD, you could visit our Canadian website: www.studentuniverse.ca.

Had to pay twice for my flight
May 18, 2023

I was directed to this service by an outside booking website. Becuase an airline website was down, Student Universe sent me a follow-up email saying that the booking "could not be completed", and to wait and book with the airline. As that was the communication, I waited until the following day, and booked my flight through the airline website. I then received communication that they had processed the flight anyways. I have appealed this several times and did not receive a refund, though I paid for the same flight twice. They have passed me off to try to deal with the airline instead.
