1. 5/5Absolutely love it

   I’ve been flirting with Skiplagged for almost 3 years now and I can honestly say for affordable flights, ease of app use and features, and flexibility when booking this is the best app I know about and been put onto hands down and what even more to me is the fact that I’ve never seen an advertisement for Skiplagged on tv or the radio or anything (because of course the app users, I,e, us, would experience higher surcharges and fees due to them paying for advertisement and radio adds etcetera)so to me that makes Skiplagged even more valuable because they value the customer not the dollar $$$ and I’m a firm believer in “a wonderful product sells itself and gets around by word of mouth “👄and to me Skiplagged is a great testament of this motto because it is indeed filled with wonder since I’ve been able to on numerous times been able to use my travel credits (which are gained from simply using the app ) towards free flights and hotel stays when ever I had gained enough credits to do these things and I even gained more travel credits for booking a flight through the app using travel credits like how awesome and wonderful is that lol haha I can go on and on about Skiplagged as one can see but all in all this is a great product and service and I will keep using this and spreading the word about it even long after I’ve become a successful and famous recording artists lol 😂😂😂

2. 5/5Rewards Credits 👎🏻

   I've been using this app for four years and found the cheapest of the cheap flights on this app. It's great for traveling on a budget. I finally racked up enough credits to be able to redeem Rewards Credits for use for a cheap flight from LA to Chicago. It would be REALLY nice if the app wouldn't have waited until the moment I went to redeem the credits that my account needs to be "reviewed" before I can use them. It was a little Google form where I entered the same information I've already entered millions of times through booking (e-mail address TWICE, full name, and how I've heard of Skiplagged). Then, after completing the form, I'm told it can take 10 days, and "my flight is NOT booked and the price is NOT locked in" and that I'll have to rebook the flight later once my account is approved, with no guarantee that it will still be as cheap. I would have LOVED to have known and have had the opportunity to submit my account for review BEFORE going to book the flight so that I could have booked with my rewards credits before the flight price goes up! I ended up paying with debit card and taking a $3 higher price so as not to risk it going up hundreds of dollars before my credits are good to use (which I then STILL wouldn't be able to use because it has to be able to cover the whole amount). It would be awesome if in the future the app could make this clear once a user gets to the point where they have enough credits to redeem, or even better, if there was an option to use credits to pay part of the amount and then the rest debit/credit card. Other than that, the app is great and I hope to be able to continue to use it to book affordable flights!

3. 2/5Buyer Beware

   1st time using this app all I can say is you get what you pay for. Not all the websites they offer tickets are legit. The first ticket I bought went without a hitch. The second ticket back is where issues came up. I’m just going to go ahead and name it if you see EDream as an option STAY AWAY it’s not worth it. After I got my ticket I noticed I got charged twice. First from the airlines-understandable, and the second by the website I got the ticket from. Unfortunately they only had a chat bot to help and even when you “talk to an agent” it’s still through the chat room. They said it was a duplicate charge and they would refund me for it. However, that meant that my flight would be refunded entirely. So I’m pretty sure I haven’t been refunded for the first charge let alone I had to buy a NEW ticket for the same flight I was initially getting on. Was there a lot I could have done differently, absolutely this was an expensive learning experience for me. But I hope my story helps someone make better decisions than me when using this app. Can this app potentially save you money, yes. But if they are using sketchy sites for flights then do you really end up saving money? Very questionable. Skiplagged please vet for more dependable sites or else you are going to lose the trust of the ppl you are initially trying to help.

4. 1/5Do Not Book Through This App

   I recently purchased 3 tickets to Alaska. We looked for hours to find the perfect flight, only to check out & have only 1 of the 3 flights go through at the price listed, the other 2 tickets went from $270 to $1,200 and I was forced to return the ticket I had purchased and start the whole process over. After finally finding a flight that worked, I paid an additional $70 per ticket to ensure that my friends and I would spend the 9 hour plans ride sitting next to each other. When I received my tickets 24 hours prior to my flight, June 11, 2020, we were all placed in different seats 4-5 rows apart and due to the flight being full, the airline could not do anything to accommodate us. Skiplagged also does not have a help call center and only communicate through email, so I was not able to handle this issue until after arriving in Alaska. They also do not keep itemized receipts of any additional costs paid including service fees, seat fees, etc. so when I called to get a refund for the fee I paid for the seat selection, they claimed there was nothing further they could do. Would not recommend booking through Skiplagged, if you do keep your own receipts and documentation of all purchases and communication to hold them accountable.

5. 1/5AIRLINES WILL CANCEL YOUR FLIGHTS!

   Do not use Skiplagged! We tried to save $ and were intrigued with the cheap fares. It worked fine going to NYC, but the airline canceled our return flight and we weren’t notified by Skiplagged or the airline. When we showed up to check in we were informed our tickets were canceled due to “non payment.” We had to purchase 2 additional tickets on the same flight we booked AND PAID FOR on Skiplagged for an additional $700!!! DON’T BOOK HOTELS THROUGH SKIPLAGGED EITHER -We paid Skiplagged a deposit and the hotel NEVER RECEIVED OUR PAYMENT so we had to pay them in full as well!!! Plus booking directly through the hotel is cheaper - Skiplagged’s rates may LOOK better but they will charge you a “service fee” so the hotel’s rates are actually cheaper. Lastly Skiplagged has NO LIVE PERSON CUSTOMER SERVICE OPTION. When our flights were canceled we tried to reach out to Skiplagged and could only send a feedback email to which we’ve no response. I read another review who claimed Skiplagged is run by 1 person - the founder - who just processes payments and offers no guarantees - I believe it. I wish we had read their terms and conditions - will never use them again!!!
