Fast answers to question
March 2, 2024

Dealing with online travel agencies comes with challenges once the booking is completed. For my first experience with StudentUniverse, I was very positively impressed with the answering time after sending questions. A clear difference with other OTAs.

Please give more options and details in My Account set up. It is a little bit hard for me to find my flight confirmation with details.

Customer service
September 30, 2023

Call attendance were very polite and helpful in navigating my situation. I got a flight not able to confirmed the date before and the call persons did help check to make sure my card was not charge for that flight. And my booking with StudentUniverse online went through for my second trip.

I booked a frontier ticket from kayak through StudentUniverse. It was for an evening flight. When the confirmation came it was for a morning flight. I reached out to StudentUniverse who asked me to cancel the ticket on Frontier Website.

Nightmare
June 1, 2019

Wanted to change the date of a flight, they wanted twice the price of a new ticket, plus 150 fee. Cancellation meant no money back, at all, despite the fact that the flight was still 3 weeks away. Stay away from this as far as you can!

Hi there! We're sorry to hear you felt that you didn't have a good experience. Unfortunately, change and cancellation fees are standard across the travel industry. In addition, we are bound to the rules and regulations of each ticket—so if you have a non-refundable ticket, we can't offer a refund for cancellations. Let us know if there's anything else we can do for you!

In December 2019 I had a last minute flight cancellation from a flight I booked from another website. I had looked up student universe and registered with them a few months earlier. In my desperate situation, I decided to check if they had competitive quotes for my travel outbound to the US from Ghana.

The whole process was quick, smooth and easy. Interestingly, I got a much cheaper flight for the same day my flight was scheduled to travel through StudentUniverse.

I will use them again given the opportunity.

Do not ever book with student flights swantson street there flights are crazy expensive and then it costs more to change a flight than to book a new one event though you paid 100 dollars extra to have a flexible ticket and then they informed me if I don't show up for a flight they will cancel all my other flights

Hi there,
We're sorry you had a negative experience. However, change/cancellation fees are standard across the industry, as is the cancellation of an itinerary if the passenger doesn't fly the first leg of the flights. Please let us know if there's anything else we can do to help.
Thanks,
StudentUniverse

Worse Customer Service
December 4, 2018

I am very unhappy with the Support provided by the Student Universe.

I had booked a flight back and fro to India and there was a schedule change by the airlines which is causing a delay in my return. This happened 3 times and the airlines added additional stops to in my return journey.

Even after explaining to Student Universe that I have to reach early to US as I have further plans for the day, they are not at all helpful in resolving the issue with the airlines and are unfortunately forcing me to accept the new schedule change, rather than talking to the airlines and checking for another alternative.

Whenever I call them, not even once have they got my destination in India right as to where I am going even after repeating it multiple times. This has been very frustrating.

I have booked 3 separate flights in the last month and all got cancelled 24h emailing me, asking for more info on credit card and traveler. They then cancelled and said that my bank had the money, I'm down a couple thousand!

Last straw was the last flight I booked, I even got a ticket and no problem at first, but this time I just got my booking cancelled, even after I had the airline ticket. They couldnt "get an exact match on the credit card" even after charging it and buying the flight from the airline!

They have terrible customer service and have not returned my money yet, even though it's been over 10 days and even though they are the ones that cancelled the flights!

It was a good experience looking for flights
March 31, 2024

Student Universe was super helpful in finding flights! :)
The only thing that I would suggest adding in the page, is the option to add more destinations for the multi-city option, I was only able to look flights for 2 destinations, and I was expecting to look for 3 at the same time. Overall a good experience.

Trip Confirmation

I wish there was a bit more of an official confirmation from the airline itself after booking the flight.
