Flight Centre Travel Group customer service

i have been trying to fly to Western Australia and have had to cancel twice because of covid that's not the issue. The issue is i have called about 3 different times to book using my credit, the first guy told me that because it was an online booking originally that i had called a store and they cannot do it. The second person answered and i was told they were too busy to take my call and took my details to ring me back (which never happened). the third time i was on hold for a long time and this was the online booking people and they told me that because the credit was sorted by a person instore that i had to contact them! is this not the same company? does the extra money that i will inevitably have to pay not go to the same place? this has made me very mad and rethink ever using this company again! not only has this been an emotional time as i have been unable to see my family, being treated like this makes it that much worse!

Desired outcome: to make booking easier! Also just to be able to actually spend my money

Flight Centre Travel Group Terms and conditions

I booked a 2 week vacation in Zanzibar from South Africa to avoid the quarantine in another country. The quarantine rules changed a week before we were to leave. I inquired about paying the cancellation fee as mentioned by Flight Center only to be told that they can't do anything as they are reluctant on the agent they are dealing with in Zanzibar terms and conditions.

All Flight Center is doing is avoiding any kind of responsibility and liability by referring to 3rd party T&C. this should be relayed to the customer for approval.

There were numerous other complaints amongst other guests at the same resort regarding Flight Center.

Will not be using Flight Center in the near future.

Desired outcome: Unresolved

Flight Centre Travel Group Refund

Hi there,
I put down a deposit for a trip that was supposed to take place in August of 2020. It was rebooked for August 2021, but cancelled due to COVID. I have tried numerous times to contact someone in regards to my refund. I have been in touch with the agent Lindsay Adler from Burlington Ontario, who keeps telling me that she keeps requesting the refund for me, however she will not give me any more information to allow me to escalate the case myself, nor will she give me any other contact information to go higher up. I would really appreciate a response on this as soon as possible, as this is a large sum of money to be continuously waiting for. I would like to get this resolved so that I can continue to be a customer of yours.

Flight Centre Travel Group Tickets being credited and not refundable and rebooking date was 30/12/2020 for a virgin flight. We still had restrictions at that time

Booking number 11297250
I had flight booked to Perth April 2020
Due to Pandemic these were cancelled and offered credits
I did receive a letter about my credits, As I had flights with Qantas and Virgin the letter stated I had until 31st December 2021 to re book so I didn't read any further, recently I looked at the letter and realized that Virgin flights had to be re booked by the 30th December 2020/ WTF.. Their were still some travel restrictions around December and I thought I had extra time to rebook, so now it seems I am out $660.00 . I would like a full refund as this is ridiculous, I have tried several times to call flight center only to be on hold for more than 30 minutes. I work and cannot just book holidays to suit and then find out I would have to go into lock down or take a further 2 weeks for quarantine. The world is different now and frankly I am scared to fly and find myself in a lock down or having to suddenly quarantine. Today Brisbane is in Lockdown due to Covid 19 things change constantly, I would like to have my Qanta's flights refunded to because god knows when I will be comfortable to fly out of state in these times. I understand that Flight center is busy but hey their should be someone who can deal with these types of calls and not to be on hold for more than 30 minutes.

Flight Centre Travel Group Refund of funds

Booking Number: Q22668725

Hello,

I am very dissapointed with the service provided by flight centre. I elected to book my trip with a reputable company for the assurance that in incidents like these this would be handled professionally and this has not been the case.

Due to the epidemic I cancelled my trip with my agent on the 24/03/2020, shortly after this she was made redundent. Heidi Garland sent me a email advising of this and provided me with another contact Emily. My land base activities was received by flight centre 20/04/2020.

Emily then was made redundent without any notice and I was left looking for someone else to support me for a week.

5/5/2020 Kiera advises she will lodge refund for internation flights through Virgin, these funds not received by your company.
I am yet to received my refund of approx. 15, 000 which you have in your account. Why am I still waiting for funds.
I have lost my job due to this epedemic and need these funds returned urgently and am frustrated that I need to go to these lenghts to obtain MY money which is sitting in YOUR account.
Without resolving the debt owed to SKYE I am unable to refinance my home loan and am now in the position of losing my family home.

I need the customer service to improve, my funds to be returned and I need to be confident that my international flights refund is been followed up and my American internal flights are all changed to e-credits. This is a lot of money.
I am not confident that this is this case and am having to make frequent calls which the response is bliase to say the least.

Please esculate this matter urgently.

Regards,
Andrea

Flight Centre Travel Group Booking wrong itinerary dates

I booked a package to queensland as a short 4 day stay and had a long and very clear conversation with Mikaela Brouwer at Flight Centre Berwick about needing to return home on the saturday as I was flying out on the sunday to japan
we discussed this at length and went through an itinery I didnt confirm the actual dates as I trusted by our conversation it was very clear on the dates and she understood very clearly on my need to return on the saturday so I could prepare to leave for japan.
so after briefly going through the itinery and signing off TRUSTING she had listened to my needs and booked everything correctly
1 week later when booking annual leave I find that she actually hadnt listened at all and had us returning to melbourne on the sunday which is the day I am leaving for japan.
I was stunned after such a specific conversation that she was able to make such a vital mistake and I put it down to not really listening to the customer. so upon questioning about this I was told either side was booked out so I cant change it and cant get a refund but can come back a day early and pay more to change my flights.

I find this as a first time I have dealt with your company both unbelievably incompetent and a really bad start to a business relationship
I dont accept her answers well you signed the itinery and I have lots of conversations so I dont remember yours when the whole trip was based around returning a day easrlier because of the japan trip.
I find this behavuor unconsionable and would like some kind of satisfactory resolve please

Flight Centre Travel Group Accommodation - waikiki

15th December 2018
Flight Centre Travel Group Ltd
Southpoint, 275 Grey Street
South Brisbane
Queensland
Australia - 4101

dear flighcentre
re: trip to hawaii 30.08.2018 to 03.10.2018 - pearl hotel waikiki.
we have used your offices over the last 9 years to book our accommodation & airfares and this was the first time that we were not happy with your selection.
we are very disappointed with the accommodation that was selected for us during our stay in Honolulu.
we found the place to be very run down, the air conditioner was not working, and we had to move rooms on several occasion which made our trip very unpleasant.
we were locked out of our room several times. The fumes from the smoking from the other rooms, drifted into our room and it made it very uncomfortable as we requested a non smoking room.
we were forever complaining about the noise, smoking, birds, television not working, fridge missing several shelves, the toaster was replaced 5 times and it was not replace, the playstation, the last straw was when we noticed a leak on the celling in our bathroom above the lavatory etc. to the management but our issues were never resolved, until we demanded to see the manager and showed all our video evidence and it was finally rectified.
we were also charged a usd$20 plus tax amenities fees on a daily basis during our stay. We should have been charged usd$18 per day as advertised. total out of pocket expenses was usd$691.00 and we believe that we were given a discount of usd$180.24
we could not use the balcony due to the mess created by the birds and no one would clean it, we requested countless times but no action was forthcoming.
this is not a reflection of your help but of the hotel, it has festered for quite some time and now was the time to express our disappointment.
we were looking forward to organise our 10th consecutive year to hawaii with you due to it also being my 60 year and was hoping to stay for a longer period, but this experience has damped our plans.
we did speak with flight centre at rockdale about our experience, they in turn passed it on to management but we were advised to put our complain in writing.
my partner was so distressed with this trip particularly the management which in turn made the trip for me very disappointing.

regards,
john christie

Flight Centre Travel Group Customer service and lack of knowledge

My name is Michelle James booking number #Q16813001 I booked through Flight Centre Northpark SA with Georgia Scown then with Jess Jacobs.
My complaint is with Jess Jacobs, and her attitude towards myself and her job.
my partner and I travelled to New Zealand on 23/08/2018 on the 24th I noticed that my pick up time from my hotel was incorrect. Three weeks earlier the flight I was booked on from the North Island to the South was cancelled and we were put on a diverted one, as this was all that was available we took it how ever Jess failed to contact Pacific Destinations to inform them of the change. I emailed her concerning this with no response at all. Trent from Pacific Destinations was very helpful and told me he would issue me a refund on the shuttle and for us to take a taxi which we did. I've yet to see my money or hear anything regarding it.
The next issue concerns our accommodation in Queenstown on 01/09/2018. We were booked into the Breakfree The Point. However we were already in a nice hotel the Heartland, close to town (5 minute walk) and this was our fifth hotel in 10 days and instead of moving we wanted to stay where we were, as the Breakfree was 2km out of town, we had no transport, it was an apartment with no restaurant and no shops close by to purchase food from. I contacted the Flight Centre emergency line hoping they could help me, they couldn't, I spoke to a lovely lady called Taryn who did her best to contact Jess with no luck for 4 hours, she wouldn't answer her phone or reply to emails.
Jess finally called me 4 hours later and her attitude was disgusting. I understood that I couldn't get a refund on the first night at the Breakfree but we were booked in for two and don't understand why something couldn't be done about the second, she couldn't book us back into the Heartland because by the time she returned the call the allocations were gone, but for me it was the way she spoke to me that has very seriously upset me, I'm a 44 year old woman who works bloody hard 45 hours a week this was my first real holiday in 6 years my partners first holiday ever and to be told "you signed the invoice there's nothing I can do you should have researched the property yourself". Are you kidding me that's why I engage a travel agent.
She then went on to blame Georgia and the vendors and again insulted me by saying "We cant be expected to know every hotel in every location that's just unrealistic." No kidding but perhaps the agents should research the properties before booking them after all isn't that their job, not to be rude and offencive to paying customers. Ive had no contact since 01/09/2018 from her even though she assured me she would get back to me, what ever!
I want my refund for the shuttle transfer then I will never deal with this company again.

Flight Centre Travel Group Chantelle nelson a consultant at parramatta with flight centre

Good afternoon
I phoned My adventure store or so I thought in January and I instead found my self talking to Chantelle who said she was with Escape Travel in Parramatta and she could help me with my inquiry. I explained to her my issue which was I had paid a deposit with Kimberley at My adventure Store in Melbourne to go on a Gadventure tour in 2017 to Botswana but had cancelled it but I still had a deposit paid which I hoped to use with another trip with G adventure.
I had chosen a trip in India which involved a cruise down the Ganges called Explore North India and the Ganges Booking file number 1187424. She had no work to do because I told her exactly the trip I wanted to go on.
It took a while for her to confirm this. I asked her to look for flights for me and she gave me some options and offered to book hotels for me in Bangkok.
I found a cheaper fight with Thai departing Melbourne on 11th July and thanked her for her offers and the flight information that she had found..
I thought I told her I was a great traveller and away often. I think Escape Travel amalgamated with Flight Centre somewhere along the way. I assumed perhaps wrongly that since she had taken over this deposit from Kimberley that she had my details
I went overseas on 13th April and returned on 21st May. During this time Chantelle claimed that she had been trying to contact me and finally according to her she obtained an alternate email address from Kimberley and I received her email requesting that I urgently pay for this trip or Gadventure would cancel it. Chantelle said she had been tyring to contact me since the beginning of April on both my phones.
I explained via email from my cruise ship that I only had access to wifi and that my phone was in flight mode and I had not received any of these alleged calls.
I might add I had not known the urgency of this payment and told her I would pay on 21st when I returned home. This was not suitable to her so I sent 8 emails containing the numbers of my credit cards to affect this payment because I was somewhat nervous send these by email on one hit..
I returned home to find that she had sent a text message to my mobile phone on 28th April and an email on 19th April. There were no messages on my home phone when I returned to confirm her many efforts to contact me from the "beginning of April".
I complained to Chantelle about all this and her poor service but she rejected this. She claimed that she did no know I was away. I thought that there was still 6 weeks before I departed and that there was ample time to pay and told her this.
I told her I would complain to you about this on the basis that poor service should be reported
She was disappointed and said she prided herself on good service.
I received two vouchers after the payment from her but no notes, no itinerary, no advice about visas etc at any time. I guess she thought I would look this up for myself but since I engaged her I expected she would do this for me.
I should have called Gadventures direct but thought I would engage the girl with whom I originally made the booking for Botswana who worked at My adventure store here in Melbourne.
Instead the call diverted to Chantelle.
My name is Lynette Mayer 513/55 Queens Road Melbourne.
[protected] and [protected] and [protected]@yahoo.com.au on my home laptop or the address on my phone [protected]@yahoo.com.au. The former address Chantelle had. What if I was a novice? I would be in the dark about visas etc or any other advice.
Thank you
Lyn Mayer

Flight Centre Travel Group Airline ticket

I called Flight centre to get a quote for a flight from Halifax to Ahmedabad. The rep sent me a quote but it was a bit pricey. I called the rep and suggested that there is a better itinerary on flight hub but for a long time she was not able to find that flight. Eventually she was able to find the itinerary but to price match, she had to call the call centre . This all happened on Saturday evening at around 6 30. I didn't receive any call that night. Next morning, i called flight hub and the rep was ready to match the price on flight hub. However, the price i saw on flight hub was less than what she was quoting. I asked her if i can send her a screenshot but she was not listening. I asked her how do i get the price i see on flight hub and she said she can't give me that price and asked me to book on my own.She didn't even tried to double check if it was her mistake. I have booked previously with flight centre and was hoping for same experience. Not satisfied with the customer service provided.

Recommend avoid travel agent chains such as flight centre; escape travel; student flights; travel associates; cruise about; infinity holidays - as these companies are only interested in quantity/turnover where clients are just another number as flight centre have absolutely no interest in quality nor repeat business…..
If you want to save yourself from much heartache – for your future travels recommend you find a independent/boutique/20+ years experienced travel agent in your local area whom actually treat you as a person; are quality driven in terms of customer service; and genuinely care about their clients whom would return as a repeat customer.
