Orbitz

Orbitz Itinerary# **SSN[redacted] I purchase flight insurance and Orbitz did not include it. I was in the hospital but I couldn't cancel my flight because of Orbitz error. The car I rented was noisy from wind though the windshield crack. The hotel was dirty and not what the pictures they showed on-line.

This may be the worst experience I have ever had with any company. I have used Orbitz before with good results but try to make a change in your plans and forget it.
I will just quickly say. I made flight plans and had to change them. This requires a penalty fee be paid which I had no choice and is par for the course. Orbit set up my new flight and took my credit card info. I never received an email regarding my new flight so I called back and after 3 hours on the phone, you read that right, 3 hours, they told me that they didn't have a record of my change and also that now the fee has gone up. I argued I wasn't paying a higher fee for there mistake. Not to mention the flight I had switched to was no longer available. I had to pick a new flight and pay the original fee. The charge showed up on my card but after calling the airlines they stated number 1, no fee, then they could not see the updated ticket, etc, etc, more calls to orbitz, finally fixed ticket after many calls. Fee as of now has not been charged, I will loose my flight with the airlines if the fee is not charged next week. I have talked to many operators at orbitz and supervisors just one today who said they would call me back. Over and hour so far no call back.
This is the short version of the nightmare of dealing with orbitz. I will never use them again.

Dear Ms. [redacted],


size="3"> The Revdex.com has shared your recent correspondence pertaining to your request to have the taxes refunded on your airline tickets under Orbitz locator [redacted]. I appreciate the opportunity to review your account and respond to your concerns.

Upon reviewing your reservation, I do show that Orbitz locator [redacted] was reserved via our online service on March 22, 2015 for the travel dates of June 24, 2015 through July 7, 2015 on [redacted] Atlantic Airlines.  Due to a medical emergency, I do see the booking was canceled on May 29, 2015.  As travel insurance was not reserved and the tickets being nonrefundable, the booking was properly canceled for future use. However, once the medical documentation was received, a refund exception was forwarded to [redacted] Atlantic.

On June 25, 2015, we did receive a response from [redacted] Atlantic denying the refund request.  We forwarded the request to [redacted] Atlantic a second time on your behalf; however, another denial letter was received on August 7, 2015.  On August 11, 2015, we responded to your email, and advised [redacted] Atlantic had denied your refund request.  In the notification, it was explained that the remaining nonrefundable ticket value could be used for future travel, or you could request a refund of the taxes.  The approximate tax refund would be $259.00 out of the $1585.40 ticket reserved for each traveler. The traveler would have to choose whether to utilize the ticket value for future use with the applicable penalty fees, or accept the refund of the taxes.

On October 10, 2015, we did receive a response from Mr. [redacted].  Mr. [redacted] was asking what the remaining ticket value would be, and if there would be any rebooking or additional fees when utilizing the ticket.  We responded to your questions on October 13, 2015 that it would be necessary to contact us directly, and our phone number was provided. 

Ms. [redacted], unfortunately, we do not show that we were contacted any further until April 29, 2016, and the ticket had already expired.  A refund of the taxes was not processed previously as we were not advised of the decision you had made regarding your tickets.  We would not process the refund without the customers’ permission.  Airline tickets only have a one-year validity, and since your tickets were issued on March 22, 2015, we no longer have access to the ticket. As we no longer have the ability to process a refund of the taxes, we have forwarded your request to [redacted] Atlantic directly.  Unfortunately, due to the age of the booking, we cannot guarantee that your request will be granted.

Ms. [redacted], we certainly regret your disappointment in our services, but our records show that there were questions on possibly utilizing your tickets for future travel, and that a refund request of the taxes was not previously received.  As soon as we receive a response from [redacted] Atlantic, we will promptly update you.

Thank you,

Dear Mr. [redacted] The Revdex.com has shared your recent correspondence pertaining to the...

airline imposed schedule changes pertaining to Orbitz confirmation number PBORB9607850234.  I apologize for any confusion, and appreciate the opportunity to review your account and respond to your concerns. Please know that I have reviewed your log.  I found that on September 17, you contacted Orbitz Customer Service due to a schedule change on GOL, you requested a new flight on the same day.  However, the Customer Service agent advised there no other flights available that day, and that they would waitlist alternate flights and per GOL, the flight should be confirmed two weeks prior to departure.  You were also advised of the option to cancel your airline ticket and were informed of the hotel’s cancel policy.  At this time, you decided to keep the waitlist and the hotel and check for alternate flights closer to departure date. On November 3, you contacted Orbitz Customer Service about your schedule change, and asked to be put on a flight as close to the same departure time that you originally.  Orbitz Customer Service contacted American Airlines and requested a new flight; however, you were told this was not guaranteed; you agreed to the terms, and Orbitz Customer Service rebooked you on the new flights.  Although Orbitz was attempting to process your exchange, your reservation did not fall into the proper queue for attention, and you were made aware at the airport that your new booking had not been processed.  At this time, we are unsure how this unfortunate situation occurred.  I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. Furthermore, you are requesting to be refunded for two nights.  However, for the evening of November 16, you did check-in to the hotel and utilize their services.  In taking all things into consideration along with the prolonged replies from Orbitz, we will refund you one night stay in the amount of $454.00 to your credit card on file.  Please allow 3 to 5 business days to process.  As a gesture of our sincerity, Orbitz would like to offer you a $200 USD future travel voucher on your next prepaid Orbitz.com airline, hotel or vacation package booking.  Our voucher is meant to emphasize our commitment to you, and we remain hopeful you will continue using Orbitz for your travel planning needs. Here are the instructions for the future travel voucher: When you make your next booking on Orbitz.com, please forward a copy of the Orbitz Travel Document e-mail to us at [email protected].  Please reference case number 5487471 and my letter offering the $200 voucher in your request.  Orbitz will then issue a credit to the card used for the new booking.  This offer is valid for one year from the date of this letter, until December 22, 2016. Mr. [redacted] we appreciate your business and we hope you will provide us with a future opportunity to serve your with your travel planning needs.

Dear Revdex.com,
Thank you for taking the time to contact Orbitz regarding an issue from our customer.  We appreciate the Revdex.com allowing us to address the comments and concerns which have been brought to our attention.  Orbitz is disheartened the customer felt their concerns were not resolved adequately by our company prior to seeking further actions from you.
Our records indicate that on May 5, 2016, Mr. [redacted] booked flight reservations – itinerary [redacted] – using the self-service tool on the Orbitz website. Travel was on China Eastern, departing June 13, 2016, from Vancouver, Canada to Bangkok, Thailand, returning July 8, 2016, for two passengers. We understand that Mr. [redacted] is requesting a refund in amount of $604.00 for the unused portion of his flight reservations as he was denied boarding on July 8, 2016, by China Eastern due to inadequate connection time in Lanzhou, China.
Upon further research, we confirmed that the connection time allotted on Mr. [redacted] tickets in Lanzhou, China was a total of 65 minutes, and that the minimum amount of time required for a layover connection in the Lanzhou, China airport is 60 minutes. However, Orbitz confirmed that the return portion of Mr. [redacted]’s tickets was unused. As such, as a courtesy, on September 8, 2016, Orbitz processed a refund for $604.00 back to the Mr. [redacted]’s original form of payment. The amount of time it takes to receive a refund depends upon the length of time it takes Mr. [redacted]’s financial institution to process refunds, generally 3-7 days.
 
We thank you for allowing us the opportunity to address the issues that were brought to our attention. If you have any further questions or concerns regarding this matter, please feel free to contact us.

Dear Mr. [redacted], Thank you for the quick response, and I am happy to address your continued concerns. We have found February 19, 2016 was to be the original travel date selected, and we are unable to explain the reservation discrepancy you described. According to my research, the booking was made privately, meaning there was no assistance from a telesales representative to book the ticket over the phone. It is the responsibility of the Orbitz member or the person using the account on the member’s behalf to confirm all travel specifications before completing the booking process. Throughout the booking process, the website recaps the selections made by the customer.  Within minutes of the booking, Orbitz also generates an ‘Orbitz Travel Document’ email confirming the flight dates, flight numbers, and times. Our customers may review their booking at any time in their online 'My Trips' profile. Mr. [redacted], thank you again for giving me the opportunity to address your concerns. Sincerely, [redacted] Orbitz Customer Relations Chicago, IL

The statements made by orbits in response to my complaint are absolutely false. In addition to the fifth of April there were several other calls that were made of which I have all calls recorded. I also have direct contact and recorded call with [redacted] Airlines in regards to how orbits could have helped the customer by allowing the first leg of the flight to be that of Charlotte
 
Complaint: [redacted]
I am rejecting this response because:
It is it is absolutely false in regards to the statements being made of assistance at any point in time in particular in regards to the escalation department on the 5th of April. As I have stated I have every call that has been made and received with Orbitz including the call from this escalation Department of whom never stated anything of the sort. I also have recorded calls with the airline of whom stated they would be happy to allow the first leg of the flight be the Charlotte flight if orbits would update on their end. Again I have all calls recorded including those not mentioned by Orbitz. The representative that I even spoke to stated that she had spoke with Delta Airlines despite the fact that I am flying [redacted] Airlines. At this point my wife and I are being forced to drive to North Carolinaon the 5th of May as my family is located outside of Charlotte. We then we'll be having to rent a car to drive back to Richmond to the airport only to fly back down to Charlotte for my parents to pick us up at the airport for our 7 o'clock flight to Jamaica. In regards to the return flight the [redacted] Airlines representative while doing all he could to help informed us that as we have to go through customs in Charlotte we will be able to take our bags and not have to board the connecting flight from Charlotte to Virginia as my vehicle will already be in Charlotte at my parents from having to drive from Richmond to their home on the 5th of May as previously stated. Amongst other matters I do not understand why a company would offer insurance or protection plan for a flight and hotel package that are non-refundable. It is absolutely absurd. People work very hard for vacations and this is the worst experience I have ever had in regards to any matter. If orbits was so cognitive as to the matters I do not understand why I am not even being addressed as Doctor but rather Mister. That is just a moot point. My wife and I will enjoy this trip but I will ensure that all calls will be posted in reviews on every possible review site and social media to ensure they do not have the same nightmare of an experience that I have had.
Sincerely,

In December I reserved a vehicle in Guatemala with [redacted] through Orbitz. I had to pickup the vehicle before, and asked if this was going to affect my reservation. They told me that it could be cancel no-hassle at all. I even returned the vehicle earlier because the insurance was forced to be bought and it was about double of the priced of the daily rental.
I was over charged $180 and had to pay an insurance that I did not used "for the days I cancelled"!?. I reported the issue to Orbitz and they just point me to [redacted]. The [redacted], point me to their Guatemalan branch. In here, Mr. [redacted], the [redacted] owner, assured me that a partial payment was going to be reimbursed. It's been many emails and false promises. I had no received any money back and now they, from [redacted] in Guatemala are not answering my emails or my phone calls. .

Initial Business Response /* (1000, 5, 2014/02/19) */
Thank you for choosing Orbitz Cruises for your cruise needs. I apologize for the service Mr. [redacted] received on Sunday, February 16, 2014. We researched the reservation along with the call between the agent and the guest. The...

reservation did indeed qualify for the Orbitz best price guaranty at the time of the call. Mr. [redacted] called in within the 48hrs deadline. Royal Caribbean Cruises did advise the price of the reservation did indeed drop at that time but could not make the change due to the penalty period but offered the guest to fill out the Royal Caribbean best price guaranty directly with them, which is what the agent offered to our guest. Our agent was incorrect to offer this and should have applied our Orbitz best price guaranteed instead per the guest request. We have taken action with the agent. I have issued a refund to Mr. [redacted]'s credit card for $66.00 total. I have called and left a message for Mr. [redacted] apologizing for the service he received and issued the refund. I left my name and extension for any follow questions.
Thank you,

Final Consumer Response /* (2000, 7, 2014/02/26) */
(The consumer indicated he/she ACCEPTED the response from the business.)
A refund issued to my credit card is the resolution I was seeking. I still have not seen the refund come through but I am accepting the response based on the promise that the refund is coming.

My experience with Orbitz was TERRIBLE.

The airline changed the flight, Orbitz was supposed to notify me, but I didn't receive anything from them. So I missed my international flight, and had to reschedule my connection flight. Luckily the airline (not Orbitz) was able to reschedule my international flight at no charge.

The Orbitz agent claims that Orbitz sent me a notification of the change in the flight, to my [redacted] account registered on the Orbitz site. However, I did NOT receive that notification (I checked my inbox, my deleted emails, my spam folder), and when I asked her to forward me the email they had sent, she said that she could not forward it due to company policies. That is, she can't produce a proof that the email was sent, all I have is her word, against mine.

As a result of this failure to notify, I had to reschedule my connection flight with [redacted], which costs $440 for me and my wife. And Orbitz can't/won't do anything about it.

I am a VERY VERY dissatisfied customer, and I will never use Orbitz if I can avoid it, and will make sure that everyone I know is aware of the poor experience I received it from Orbitz.

Revdex.com:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted], and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.

Dear
Kingsley,
The Revdex.com has shared your recent correspondence
with Orbitz so that we may assist you further. It is my understanding that you feel Orbitz engages in bait
and switch tactics, due to the price changes on our website. I appreciate the
opportunity to review...

and respond to you. On behalf of Orbitz, I apologize for
the disappointing experience and the frustration this caused you.Orbitz goal is to make every customer experience a great one, by
offering the lowest fare available to our customers. Orbitz is an unbiased and
dedicated online Travel Agency offering millions of fares on every requested
flight search. We understand it is frustrating for you to see a price on a
reservation that you would like to confirm, and the price increases. Inventory
available on Orbitz is also available on other travel sites.
Please know at the same time, there are millions of customers
shopping throughout the day. The airfares and their availability can be updated
at any time, with or without notice, since they are determined directly by the
airlines. Fares can change very rapidly as the carriers continually adjust
their flight loads, especially during peak travel times. Orbitz monitors these
changes closely and makes every effort to keep our fare displays as current as
possible. That’s why these fares are not guaranteed until we receive confirmation
from the airlines, and tickets have been issued.
When you
are attempting a booking, and the price changes or shows no longer available;
this means that the airlines have updated their pricing but have failed to
update our website with current price. In situations where the airlines have
not updated their fares and availability, we can send a request that they
update the system. If you provide the flight details; I will forward to the
appropriate department for their follow up with the carriers to update the
website with their most updated availability and fare.
Regrettable,
Orbitz is not able to restore a fare once it is sold out or discontinued by the
airline. However, as a gesture of goodwill, Orbitz has issued you a $75 USD
future travel voucher to use on your next Orbitz.com prepaid booking. Our
voucher is meant to emphasize our commitment to you, and we remain hopeful you
will continue using Orbitz for your travel planning needs.
Here are
the instructions for the future travel voucher:
When you
make your next booking on Orbitz.com, please forward a copy of the Orbitz
Travel Document e-mail to us at [email protected].
Please reference case number [redacted] and my letter offering the $75 future
travel voucher in your request. Orbitz will then issue a credit to the card
used for the new booking. This offer is valid for one year from the date of
this letter, until December 1, 2016.

thank you for allowing me to review this with you. We appreciate your business,
and we hope to have an opportunity to serve you in the future.

The amount Iberia charged me for the BCN to LHR portion of the trip was 947.18 Euros, or US$1313.38 as it appeared on my credit card statement. Since I was able to use 20,000 American Airlines miles for the LHR to ATH portion of this trip, my out of pocket cost for that was only $166.60 for taxes and fees. Please note the original ticket cost (BCN - LHR, LHR - ATH) quoted to me by Iberia was 1,745.00 Euros, therefore using my ** miles did significantly reduce the total out of pocket expense.

Dear [redacted]
Thank you for your response.
Please know, I have checked your reservation history and do see an airline schedule change in your itinerary history. We acknowledge that we failed to contact you regarding this change, and I sincerely apologize for not meeting the high level of standards that you have come to expect from Orbitz.
We value our customers and for that reason, we have taken two steps.
First, we are currently addressing how this situation occurred. Although the schedule change is viewable in your itinerary history, your reservation did not fall into the proper queue for attention. At this time, we are unsure how this unfortunate situation occurred. We are currently researching with the airline carrier and our technology partners to determine the cause of this problem. We acknowledge a mistake was made and we regret failing to meet your expectations.
Secondly, we have processed a refund for the amount you paid for the new tickets you purchased at the airport, $1313.38 USD and $160.60 USD, for a total of $1479.98 USD. The refund will appear back to your American Express Card ending in[redacted] within 3 to 5 business days.
