1. 5/5Not Even the employees will match these low rates!

   We recently had a house fire and had no choice but to stay in hotels. With us being a family of 5 suites seem to suit us best and hopper came through every time with the lowest rate of all 3rd party hotel apps and sites. Rate do change constantly but that’s what makes it kinda fun. I find that 2AM I can get the lowest rate of the day , although that’s not always the case. Not only that but on top of fire car broke down and Hopper had great deals for a rental for the week. They are always posting cheap flights and housing or hotels for a vacation or in my case ended up finding an apartment to stay in short term till we got are ducks in a row for the next step of are journey. I have never had a problem with them personally or had to call because they made a mistake. Just be careful when booking rooms that your reading the details correctly or call hotel and double check if you’re unsure what a room type is. For example one time I booked us for a king suite. Thing separate king bedroom and sofa bed in living room….. and we walked in the room there was one king bed. What I should have clicked on was 1 bedroom king suite which had the separate bedroom and pull out couch for the kiddos in living room. All in all Thank you Hopper I couldn’t have found a better site to use in this time of need for my family.

2. 4/5Saves me time and money

   I’ll start with the reasons for the loss of the star. 1. Sometimes the prediction of when to buy is not accurate. For instance, I was advised to wait for the price to drop to purchase a flight ticket but then when I was advised to “buy now” because the price wasn’t bound to drop, it ended up being $10 more than if I had booked when I was going to initially. A $10 difference isn’t a huge deal; it just felt a bit misleading. Similarly, sometimes the lowest available price shown for a flight is lower than the lowest actual lowest price available, which can be disappointing obviously. Lastly, and perhaps the most confusing for me is how the flight prices are color coded. Naturally one is inclined to think that red mean the flight cost will be most expensive; but I’ve come to learn than red (I think) actually means the cost of the flight is more expensive on that date than I guess it usually is to or from that airport. So in reality, a date color coded red could actually be more cost effective than a date color coded green if that date is usually pretty cheap on average. I haven’t been able to crack the algorithm, so I would just advise everyone to always check all dates regardless of the color coding. In my opinion, it would be most helpful to the buyer if the color coding represented a general price range. All in all, hopper does the leg work for me and saves me a bunch of time which is why despite the aforementioned, I think they still deserve 4.5 ⭐️.

3. 4/5Helpful app to find flights

   Hopper does a great job of finding all flights available and but not so good at forecasting whether the prices will decline or increase. Let me explain. Hoppers forecasting should help you determine whether you should purchase the flight now, or wait. However, Hopper needs more filters to actually make this work for consumers. You see, when you check for flights and prices, the filter allows you to choose Direct Flight or One Layover. Let’s say I chose One Layover. I can further filter the layover time, but only in chunks of 4 hours. Unfortunately, when I was checking flights, many of the flights with One Layover of 4 hours or less were a total flight duration of 8+ hours, while other flights with One Layover were a total flight duration of only 5 hours. I really wanted a filter that allowed for total flight duration as I only wanted those shorter duration flights. Without more specific filters, Hoppers prediction of pricing is useless, as it’s prediction of lower or higher future pricing encompasses ALL those flights, rather than only the shorter duration ones I was interested in. Therefore I’d often find Hopper suggesting I wait to purchase my flight, but ultimately the shorter duration flights would increase in price while only the longer duration flights ( due to layovers close to 4 hrs) decreasing in price. Long story short, I couldn’t use Hoppers price prediction very effectively. If you filter for direct flights the the price prediction works nicely.

4. 5/5Voided Transactions

   Updated review: Customer service has reached out and helped me with the issue I had about the voided transaction. I would suggest to any users out there that even if the flight prices are low and seem perfect, take an extra night to sleep on it and make sure your plans are set in stone because the travel industry in general has stricter policies for changes and cancellations. It’s not as forgiving as purchasing a product in the wrong size and returning. To the Hopper customer service team, thank you for reviewing my case. Previous review: I liked the Hopper app. It’s fast, intuitive, and user friendly. But here’s the thing - they offer a bunch of travel insurances and additional products after the initial flight booking. I noticed a problem & canceled my flight within an hour of making the booking and qualified for a voided transaction. The voided transaction email states the ‘charge will disappear as if it never happened’ but they also state in the fine print that their optional products are non-refundable. So of course my charge cleared and didn’t actually “void”, then I see a refund for only the flight and not the Hopper Tip, Flight Delay Booking Service, & Trip Insurance. So the voided transaction isn’t exactly true. Personally I will only ever book directly with the airline from now on. Less middle men to deal with and less fine print stress. I’m new to traveling so I figured I’d make some mistakes along the way, but this was easily the fastest way to lose $36. Maybe there should be some clarity on what actually qualifies for a voided transaction. Booking SRPAVM.

5. 3/5Manipulative and filled with Micro fees, use for the Calendar and Make Purchases Somewhere Else

   Update: Took 3 months, over 40 emails and a really bad review. But I finally got my refund. after having my email feed disconnected and practically giving up as my reservation was over 4 months ago, i updated my already terrible review to what you see below and then my feed was reopened. For some reason this time I was given more information and it seemed my issue was brought up to a high enough person and my review was alarming enough that I was issued a refund within the week. It should not be this hard to issue a clear refund. But I am happy to have finally received it, and hopper did reply to my reviews both here and in email which I appreciate greatly. This is one of those businesses that will do everything they can to take as much money from you as possible while making it look like they’re giving you incredible discounts. They will overcharge you for micropayments that you don’t realize exist until you pay them, and if you do avoid them you will have an impossible time receiving ANYTHING close to a refund if one single thing goes wrong, like I did. Use their calendar because it’s awesome to see fluctuations in prices ahead of time for tickets, hotels etc. and then make your actual purchases somewhere else. Use them and then leave. because they seriously take advantage of people and will take advantage of you if you don’t.

4. 1/5

   I hate this app. It always tells me to wait for a better flight price, only for prices to go up and up and up until it tells me that now this new price, $200 higher than what it was when it told me to wait, is the best I can hope for. Deleting this for the second time. It never changes.
