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.

Great Experience
March 1, 2023

I had never known about this website till I was redirected to it while shopping around for international tickets. The prices are very competitive and it was a great experience booking tickets for the first time with them. Everything went smooth without any issues.

Good prices
March 1, 2023

Good price and flights compared to other websites. Student universe just needs to have a better overview of the rules and cancelation fees. And should allow students to change dates

Good routing, bad baggage pricing
March 30, 2023

SU had the lowest price for a route not available on other sites. Turned out to be a 'hacker' route that required paying for baggage and seats on both legs of the 'connecting' flight. SU collected a fee for the baggage at purchase which turned out to be 30% of the true baggage costs. SU refunded me the baggage costs that it collected and I was on my own to pay $500+ for bags. Not very good.

Review
February 26, 2023

Website was easy enough. Had to call about a potential issue with charging a card that said it didn't work but when I called I received immediate and helpful service. Right now we're experiencing, after a week, of the transaction only being partially made on our bank account. They have not charged us the full amount yet. Which is confusing. Anyways, other than that quick and easy I would say.
