AUdisgraceful bunch of con artist thieves I agree, this company needs negative reviews. What a disgraceful bunch of con artist thieves. Truly Trumpian! Quote is in USD (but not shown on screen, only in fine print in receipt of purchase) so when paying in AUD the quote is effectively irrelevant. Then charged a third party booking fee that was not quoted or even mentioned throughout the booking process. Avoid at all costs.

GBDon't book!! Was trying to book my husband's and I 40/50 birthday trip to Vegas and they charged my card for a hotel/flight package and I didn't get an itinerary number. So no I have to wait for the charges on my account to drop to rebook. Customer service was no help and now we are prolly gonna have to pay more! Frustrating and disappointing!

GBPlease do not buy any insurance from… Please do not buy any insurance from this company. Bought insurance for a flight in May. Plans changed. They said they couldn't change my flight because the airlines deals with it. Go there and they are charging me full price for a flight because I don't have insurance with them. Go to Orbitz and they tell me they can't do anything or even give me refund. They are knowingly robbing you for that insurance knowing damn well they can't do anything for you.

GBAgents either don't know, or don't want to implement airline restrictions/policies properly. We had to three-way call in an airline representative to explain to the Orbitz agent that we were allowed to make changes and that there were flights available to book the changes. Only then were we able to actually get our flight rebooked. Seriously. Book directly with the airline. It costs less. You will see more flight options. The features and restrictions of the tickets will be more transparent. Finally, in my experience the airlines are more helpful when you need assistance. And *that's* a pretty low bar that Orbitz fails to clear. I've been an Orbitz user since late 2001. I'm out.

GBGood and bad I have used Orbitz for several trips, business and personal. They are good and bad but I will no longer book through them. They helped me change my flights when traveling in Canada recently and that was huge, but most recently I was a week out from a single-night reservation and they charged $25 to push it a month. My issue is that I have plenty of rewards to cover that cost but they wouldn't let me use them. The reward program was one of the reasons I started using them and after finding out you don't get rewards for car rentals and hotel rentals don't get rewards with hotel programs when booked through Orbitz. Using the rewards is bad as well, they typically charge double on all rooms when used. It just isn't worth it. I gave them two stars because I was able to change the reservation and didn't have to abandon it. Plus they did help out in Canada, but it took a long chat with a moron that ended up with a call to the 800 number to get straight.
