Skyline Travel

I’ve booked 3 trips with Wendy-​Brazil, Fiji and now Budapest. All 3 were at much better prices than I found on my own. Excellent service!!!

This travel agency is terrible — I will never use them again. They focus on how much money they can make on each transaction, and care little about the experience of the travelers. When we experienced a problem on our trip, they denied responsibility and hung up on me when I said I would post on Unilocal.They seem to book the most expensive options (first class tix — «all we could get») to get the highest commissions.
Situation: I booked a trip for my son and myself to travel to Mexico with another family. It was assumed our flights and hotel were all aligned. I was shocked to find the day of our return that we were not on the flight with our traveling companions. This was never communicated to me. To make matters worse, a friend of mine was added to the trip — and was booked to fly with our original friends — why werent we?. I had to make last minute arrangements with United in Mexico, under duress and pay excessive change fees to get home with the rest of our party. Layer on top of this that my friend was sold a first class seat, as we were told that was the last seat on the plane, but i easily got seats on that supposed «fully booked» flight. Layer on another hiccup — we had to change hotels after the first night because the hotel we were booked in was so bad. The pricing of the trip was mysteriously different for my family and our traveling companions too — was she overcharging them? Seemed so.
It is a joy to avoid having to book trips myself and have the care of an agent, but this agency brought us nothing but problems and miscommunication — better in this instance to have booked this trip myself. I had to spend another $ 2000 to change flights and hotels to make this trip «right». Never again — do not use this travel agent.

I’ve used Skyline Travel a dozen times or so over the years. They’re great. The person I’ve worked with, Chris, seems able to make herself knowledgeable about essentially anywhere I’ve wanted to go. She’s consistently found me good deals on good hotels and flights. As the previos post says, they do change a $ 25 fee, but I’ve found the deals to be enough better than what’s online to be worth the money.

This is a neighborhood travel agent that appears caught in the squeeze of online travel. They charge $ 25 for each e-​ticket and an additional $ 25 for a paper ticket. My most recent experience was not good. Two of the three tickets issued had the same name and United Airlines forced me to pay $ 100 to change the name before boarding the plane. Skyline Travel contending that United was wrong but has given me no help in disputing the charge. I will not use them again.
