Points should be refunded
The booking itself was easier for my trip Cairns - Brisbane return 16/4 to 23/4 for my ailing mums 80th. Using flybuy points.
Unfortunately had to cancelled due to covid.
It was messy trying to address this with contacting.
I was given a credit to be used at later date.
I am feeling highly disappointed that the points were not reimbursed which would have been of more benefit during this time I am sure this would be for many.
I would much prefer the points be reimbursed to my account so could use on other things.

Ticket on hold
I gave 3 stars because they try to call me on the phone as they don't know I am Deaf. They should text or email. Good news is my plane ticket is on hold for a year.

Covid19 camcellations and travel credit
Flights were cancelled due to covid 19. However have been unable to get in touch with anyone & ask about travel points & credit. Other travel providers provided an online acc and have have been more transparent with points and credits.

Need to be proactive.
Had to wait to be told about cancellations.
And then had to pursue follow up after more than 7 days.
Being told that we would be charged a fee did not come across well.
unfortunately we had to accept credit due to COVID-19 but service regarding the credit thus far has been good
no extra facts available as we are still yet to travel but once we have been able tp use our credit we will definately review again. Cannot wait to be able to travel again

A good place to stay for a short period.
The Cabin was of a reasonable standard being well cleaned and looked after. The grounds were of a good standard. The staff were friendly and willing to help with any problems.

Booking easy and convenient. However avoid if you have dietary requirements.
Booking process was easy and convenient. Price was comparable with other companies. And great we earn flybuys points with travel. However, extremely disappointed that my dietary requirements were not passed onto the airline and I therefore couldn’t have meal on the flight. I even called flybuys travel a few days prior to confirm. Airline advised this was common problem with flybuys travel.

Richmond - close to the city and Bridge Road shopping
We used this central location to get to hospital appointments, city shopping, and access to tram & train transport for further away destinations on our anniversary weekend.
No restaurant or bar may disappoint others, and we didn't try the breakfast as there were good options only a walk away.
Close to the MCG, & Jollimont Railyards but it was quiet!

Only OK for us
Clean, bathroom beautifully renovated, but the room very old. It was neat, but the bed too hard for us. No trouble booking through flybuys though, I would use flybuys again.

Ok - glad I used but not amazing

An okay experience
Flybuys travel was quick and easy to book. Had no hidden fees, however when we missed our flight due to our newborn, Virgin Australia (airline that we booked with) was not very helpful and wasn’t able to compensate us.
Long story short, we arrived to the gate as it JUST closed and the woman at the desk informed us that we were no longer able to get on... she was very rude and condescending, definitely the worst part of the experience. The woman at the information desk advised us that she wasn’t able to help us also, as we bought tickets from f...

Helpful service people
I booked a cruise with flybuys travel and they were very helpful. Even when travel agent made a mistake with flight times, they were quick to apologise and own their mistake.

Typical flight
I flew with Jetstar and it was the type of flight you would expect it to be: on time, no delays and no turbulence. The only improvement would be friendly staff.

Overall satisfied
I was overall happy with our flights and accommodation.just wasn’t aware that our room wasn’t serviced. Which was annoying.
If it was made clear from the beginning it wouldn’t have been a problem. But after big days out at the theme parks and calling to get the after hours service nobody really knew weather we were serviced or not.
Day of leaving we found out we had to do our own washing etc.

Change of plans
Had to cancel booking straight after booking due to personal reasons and change of travel arrangements. I was disappointed that there was no refund or even transfer of credit to another booking.
Easy to use, however scope could be broader
Was really easy to use and navigate, however feel like there were limited options. prices were good, but thought there could be other options available with other airlines that weren’t shown

Good variety of airlines
It was nice to have such a wide variety of airlines and prices that were just the same as with the airlines themselves. We had an issue with the payment of two tickets, as they were identical prices....but that was sorted with a phonecall. Very easy to make the bookings....

Points redeemed for accomodation in Tokyo
The booking process itself was great but no confirmation from Hotel and it was difficult to get in touch directly being in Oz while the stay was in Tokyo. The one and only email I got said to wait for another email. It all worked out so I am happy.
The room was nice. Its great I can use my flybuys point for accomodation.

Why are flybuys sending requests for reviews of trips which have obviously been cancelled due to CoVid19?
Somebody there needs to correct this. My review:- Disappointing. Flybuys will not even refund our points back on to our statement when it is highly unlikely we will be able to re-book our triip

We got to go on our trip. It was not cancelled. We returned the night before the mandatory quarantine started. This is a genuine review
Andrew F.asked
HI The flight to Melbourne was cancelled more than a month ago and I was advised the points used could be re used for a Virgin flight.
