After reading a host of negative reviews I was incredibly suspicious about AirfareNetwork however I managed to purchase my flights (£300 cheaper than others) and check in with no problems. Customer service were particularly helpful when I had queries about credit card verification.

Would recommend/book again.

I booked with this agency and then read the reviews and almost had a heart attack. I was so worried that my ticket would not come to fruition. However communication was forthcoming on time and I had no problems whatsoever. Hopefully all of their past issues have been resolved as their prices are very competitive. Thank you guys

Won't Refund
January 21, 2018

Booked a flight through them. But some plans changed as is life, couldn't go on vacation anymore on my scheduled day. Cancelled the flight 3 MONTHS in advance of the flight date. They said we don't usually do refunds, but to assure the best customer satisfaction said they would cancel the flight and refund the money with a $300 penalty. Large penalty sad but I was ok with it. Said the remainder would be return on my credit card within 2-3 month billing period, it is now past that time, the flight has passed. They've become a ghost, haven't returned an email, won't reply to calls
The airlines have terrible customer service, but at least they're held accountable.
These people are just leeches

Update: The refund eventually showed up, around 8 months after cancelling :/

They will advertise a ticket for a price and soon after they get your credit card info start the problems... and you try... and try to finish the fabulous deal. But you won't be able... so you call them and because this deal is no longer they will try to sell you one more expensive... probably you'll end up paying a lot for all kind of stupid flight connections... forget them is my best advice!

AVOID this merchant! Purchased a ticket online, but unfortunately got diagnosed with COVID-19 the next day after purchasing. I tried to e-mail these guys for 3 days for a refund / cancellation - No response. I called their phone number for 3 days and waited for hours - No response. I have had to now lodge a dispute and cancel the transaction with my credit card company. What unprofessional behaviour. Ridiculous

I booked a flight for my partner on my card, they said that they needed further verification. I sent it to them and called them (after being on hold for over an hour) to confirm that everything was ok. They said yes and that payment would be taken in 2-3 hours. 6 hours later and no payment taken - they said the flight price had increased and cancelled the booking. Not cool

My husband booked a flight and also purchased a travel insurance at the time of my booking.
It turned out that a travel insurance has never been issued. He was learned that on my flight day because he wasn't able to fly due to medical reasons.
Agent said that they will try to get a refund from an airline provided my Medical certificate is valid. The refund will be issued within 10-12 weeks.
He got a call and an email after 2 days from the same agent asking for $108 as the airline requires a processing fee to issue a refund. After a few hours the amount increased to $ 248 as according to agent the initial offer from the airline has expired and no longer valid.
I wanted to speak to a supervisor but he was not available on that day ans never after
When I contacted the airline it turned out that the medical certificate has never been submitted to them and of course no one on their side was aware of the processing fee.
To me this situation looks like a scam or a fraud.

The worst
September 6, 2020

The worst experience with this company! After our trip to the Maldives was canceled due to covid-19, I was promised that we would receive a refund within 6-8 weeks. Anyway, this experience happened at the beginning of April, since then I have sent a lot of emails, sometimes someone even wrote me off, but the last month the company stopped communicating with me absolutely! Nobody cares that they still owe me £ 1100! I never recommend it to anyone and I believe that one day we will see our money back in the bank account!

Booking cancelled
October 29, 2018

I booked my tickets this morning and they said it had been reserved but then at half five as I was leaving work they tell me they tried to call me (they hadn't) and to call them back. They'd cancelled my booking because apparently the price was rejectwd by the airline (don't know how that happens). Anyway they tell me the price is now £100 more, as he asks for more money I look up the price on skyscanner and see not only are they advertising less from airfare network (£540) but so are their competitors, so obviously I have no trust for these guys, cancelled the booking.

I booked a long haul flight through this company. They confirmed the booking. Nearly a week later they cancelled the booking due to payment issues. I rang my bank and there were no issues from my bank. They wouldn't communicate with me. I emailed and called and asked them to process my payment they said they couldn't and offered to process the payment again for $500 more than the original price offered. Caused me absolute stress and mucked me around completely - don't recommend this company at all.
