Skyscanner

I checked my flight via Skyscanner and book it via one of their advertised agents called Go To Gate. My flight was for Sydney - Vancouver - Calgary return. Next day in the morning I found out that my return flight needs to be from Whitehorse - Vancouver - Sydney, on the same date. I called Go To Gate and they requested to pay AUD $464.00 more. New flight Whitehorse - Vancouver is AUD $203.00. I requested to cancel my flight as I was within 24 hours of booking and I called Air Canada to confirm free cancellation if the flight was booked within 2...Read more

Do you want to use this webpage to compare prices? Fine. But do yourself a favour and don't buy anything through them.
They always redirect you to the weirdest agencies in my case it was Mytrip.com. I've had modifications in the ticket without them confirming if I was gonna actually travel, until I called (7 months after purchasing my ticket) and they tell me my tickets aren't confirmed!!

I have used Skyscanner for price comparison several times. Generally the price comparison works well. Last year I was directed to Bestjet to complete my booking and then Bestjet went into liquidation. Lots of people lost their flights and their money but I was lucky.

I would highly recommend to book with the airlines directly. If you have any d...Read more

I first checked my bank account and did not see a deduction so believed the call to be genuine. The customer service consultant confirmed expiry date and card number. I never ...Read more

If you KNOW what you want beforehand, and you're unlikely to make any changes, and you know which airlines you would use, and know which ones you would avoid, then all the hard work is done, and the only thing to do, is find the right flight, with short transfers / stopovers, the right departure / arrival times, adequate luggage allowances, food and drinks included, and free seat allocations, and of course, the right price. Then Skyscanner is hard to beat. Expect a small fee for using credit cards, but that's stated. Comparisons are easy, with ...Read more
