Hidden costs galore! Very disappointing experience. If you do find a baragin and bid several days later you get an email that it was already gone...I believe just a tease to get you excited and then you give in to all the additional hidden costs. Run away from this site- go to veterans vacations or another where the costs are much clearer before you pull out the credit card.

I've purchased several vacation condo… I've purchased several vacation condo weeks from SkyAuction over the years. For us, this is the best way to go. We're able to make breakfast in before heading out for the day, spend some time stretched out reading, enjoying the resort pools, and feeling like we're in a nice home. Just be sure you read all the details about surcharges, fees and availability before you buy. Every time we're chatting with people at the resort pool or bar, they can't believe how little we paid.

Excellent first time to Alaska Excellent first time to Alaska, great experience, new NCL JOY, services and fun crowd, I like NCL, started 30 years ago, but also use Princess, RCL, Holland and other lines. Your opportunities also lured us to Eastern Canada last fall. We have cruised dozens of times-Caribbean,all routes and Europe, again most routes. Mexico, Canal and Central America ditto. Opportunity cost to cruise Hawaiian Islands is interesting, even thought many visits for business/vacations,cruising great way to see islands.Price increases some cruise lines impact retirees. SkyAuction is great!

Once upon a time Once upon a time, they regularly had excellent bargains. Now, per-night and other fees are added to the bid price such that you can usually do as well or better with traditional travel sites, with less hassle. Their main web page has also become a bit of a mystery. Click on "Air," and you get a screen that lists -- nothing. Click on "Cruise" and you get a list of 9 cruises all from the same company on similar itineraries. Click on "Closing Soon" and get a list full of puffery but which often doesn't mention the destination until the end, so you have to wade through lots of verbiage -- and many ads for sunglasses, necklaces, and assorted stuff. Bought a number of items from them earlier. Now, I wouldn't bother.

slice of heaven in Costa Rica I recently used Sky Auction for a trip to Costa Rica-on a budget, I was able to live large in an eco report located in a private cloud forest. Breakfast was included, the rooms had fireplaces and jacuzzis, plus a porch to listen to the wildlife and look at the lightning bugs in the dark. It was a wonderful part of our trip and memories. I have been spreading the word of this awesome resource! Thank you Sky Auction!
