COVID-19 FAQ

We know many FareCompare users had their travel plans impacted by COVID-19. We hope first and foremost that you remain safe during this difficult time. Here are answers to some common questions:

Why is FareCompare still promoting travel offers and tracking price changes? Travel restrictions vary in multiple countries and we are adjusting the departure dates for flights in our emails to match these restrictions. Of course we want you to follow the restrictions set up by your health and government officials.

How can you cancel a flight or move the departure? You will need to contact the airline that you booked your ticket with (FareCompare does not handle transactions). Look for an email that has a confirmation number. This should also have the airline's contact information.

Will airlines charge you if you change your departure?

How do you know if you can fly to a certain destination? Either contact the airline if you know which airline you want to use, or visit the government site for your destination.

What can you do while waiting for travel restrictions to end?

Thanks Kanein for your honest feedback. We want to make our site as intuitive as possible, so you can quickly compare airfares.

If you have a minute, could you send an email to us with a few details on what you were searching for, and as it relates to design -- what was difficult to find.

Could you email this and any other relevant information to this address: 

customer.service@farecompare.com 

Again, thanks for your feedback,

Thanks for your honest feedback. So that we can work to improve the experience of our site, would you be able to provide the origin, destination and travel dates you searched for, and send the information to this address: 

customer.service@farecompare.com 

Also, if you have any other anecdotes (date when you searched, round-trip, number of travelers, filters used in results of airfares), any information you could provide would be helpful.

Thanks again,

Albert, we definitely want to improve your experience with our site and just have a few short questions. Can you let us know how you accessed this airfare?

The following details (if you have them) would help:

* Link to the page you are accessing
* Screenshot of the price
* Details of your desired trip (departure location and dates, return location and dates, number of passengers etc)

Once you reply with this information we can look into this further on your behalf.

Thank you for reaching out to us.

Thanks for the review. Whenever you encounter trouble booking flights, hotels or cars, it's important to reach out to that site's customer service group as soon as possible. They would be best suited to help out, since we are not part of the booking process.

Safe travels,

Priceline used to be the best now they're all the same they don't even give you the option to bid on a price anymore I found them better off calling the airlines directly 9 out of 10 times the only thing all the different sites have done is charge the same price give or take a dollar so now it looks like everything's the same rather than being given the opportunity to actually get a lower rate in fact I've had to pay three times as much for my plane ticket to Jamaica very disappointed in that your prices just make me not want to travel anymore

Karla, airfare shopping can be difficult. At FareCompare, we want to help you make that comparison before you purchase, and clearly we've missed our goal. To help you out further, could you email us directly at customer.service@farecompare.com?

When you email us, if you can send us your departure city and any other details, we'd be glad to help you look into the issue further.

Sincerely,
FareCompare

Thanks for your honest feedback. Shopping for airfare can be complex enough without prices appearing to change while shopping. The Wall-Street Journal coined this issue as 'fare-switching.'

FareCompare CEO Rick Seaney also described this issue as a technical glitch affecting the industry, airlines in particular, and only affects 2-3% of bookings.

Different reservation systems and airlines handle this concern in different ways, but most only honor the price you're quoted on the booking page.

Larger airports generally provide more competition and thus reduced prices, so where you fly from can also impact the cost.
