When a simple booking is reversed 12 times no matter how you modify it, even choosing different options, it becomes rather laborious and a complete waste of an evening. The booking process has now got to the point where one wonders if the adverts are real. Would never use this company again. Avoid

I have booked a series of flights through Expedia. The return leg of the trip takes us from Ushuaia, via Buenos Aires and Madrid to London. The flights that I picked were done with care so as to avoid having to change airports in Buenos Aires.
Yesterday morning I received notification from Aerolineas Argentinas that they had changed my flight from Ushuaia: they have changed the arrival airport from EZE to AEP - with a 1 hr 45 minute connection. The recommended minimum connection time for those two airports is 3 hours.
I telephoned Expedia and 'the best' that their help desk operator could offer was to cancel the flight and issue a refund.
This clearly is unacceptable. They are legally responsible for sorting out an alternative routing.
Having had no luck on the phone, I tried contacting them via email. Their response was "We have been exploring flight options for you. However, as per the airline's policy, no suitable flights are available at this moment. We are pleased to offer you a full refund. This option is complaint with the airline's policy which only allows rebooking for the same origin and destination."
We have not changed the origin, we have not changed the destination. It is still their issue to resolve.
It really does feel that their standard operating procedure is to encourage customers to accept a refund and the sell a more expensive alternative routing.
--------Update----------
After sending an email to their CEO, I rapidly had this issue resolved. We are now departing an hour earlier and won't need to change airports. Whilst I am pleased that the issue has been fixed, it should never arisen in the first place.

Following cancellation of our outbound flight, Expedia sent a single notification which didn't make sense (I.e. flight delayed to an *earlier* time). After phoning them from the airport, the itinerary details had to be repeated to various "agents", and they failed to give any support or advice before contacting the airline - which they were unable to do! I submitted, via their app, a complaint, which has not been acknowledged or replied to. A further complaint about the non-response has also been ignored.

Do not book a package with Expedia. As others also note, they have complete disregard for the Package Travel and Linked Travel Arrangements Regulations 2018. Despite the law being clear, Expedia ignore it completely and you have no protection in the event of cancellation of the package.
Booked a package through Expedia for departure in early March 2026. Received ATOL Protection certificate from Expedia confirming "Package (Single Contract)".
Flights via Middle East were cancelled due to the conflict in Iran - fair enough. Tried to get Expedia to reroute via flights that continued to operate but they wouldn't. As a result, the package was cancelled. Like others, after much back and forth, Expedia eventually refunded the hotel only, making it out like an exception on this ocassion etc etc.
As of July 2026, I still have no refund for the cancelled flights. I have spent hours on the phone and live chat with Expedia but they keep referring me to the airline. The airline, who have issued a refund voucher to Expedia, keep referring me back to Expedia.
The consumer protection regulations are crystal clear but Expedia do not engage. Among many other conversations, I have sent them the following but received no response:
I note from a recent letter from the Competition & Markets Authority (CMA) to package holiday organisers (of which Expedia is one in this case) particularly that:
(Paragraph) 12. The CMA expects organisers:
a. To offer the consumer a right to cancel and receive a full refund within 14 days if, due to circumstances beyond its control, the organiser needs to alter significantly any of the main characteristics of the package. This refund is a statutory right under regulations 11(4), 11(5)(b) and 11(8) of the PTRs.
b. To have robust processes in place so that when a package holiday is cancelled by the organiser under regulation 13(3), or the consumer when they are exercising their rights under regulation 12(7) of the PTRs, the consumer is provided with a full refund within 14 days. This refund is a statutory right under regulations 12(8), 13(3) and 14(3) of the PTRs.
Furthermore:
(Paragraph) 14. In reviewing the complaints, we discovered that some organisers were not providing refunds to consumers unless and until they had themselves received back the payments they had made to airlines or accommodation providers. However, the fact that an organiser has not itself been refunded by third parties does not in any way relieve organisers of their duties under the PTRs. It is organisers that are legally obliged to refund consumers in these situations, irrespective of whether funds are first received back from third party service providers.

Terrible customer service. They are leagues below their competitors such as Booking, Agoda and Trip.
After I'd confirmed the booking and before reserving the hotel the price increased. When arriving at the hotel I was told I needed to pay Malaysia tourism tax despite the booking confirmation saying Expedia paid this. My friend who booked the same hotel through Booking.com did not have this issue and I was told Agoda does not have this issue. There is no option to phone customer service through the app and the only option is live chat which puts you through to an Indian support centre with unhelpful agents that cut you off if you take more than 4 minutes to reply.
Save yourself the hassle and book through a different company.
UPDATE:
I phoned up the 'dedicated' telephone number and had to go through a 5 minute call screening to speak to someone and then went through security again. The line eventually gets through to an Indian call centre. The agent that I spoke with was as helpful as he could be but could only take feedback to pass on. The reply to this review suggested that Expedia wanted to do something to put this right but I don't think that was actually the case.

Should be zero stars. I booked a property through expedia which was a two bedroom apartment for four adults and one child. This booking was passed straight to Vrbo (who I have never used before) and after arriving at the property I was told the accommodation was cancelled even though Vrbo sent me confirmation three days prior with check-in details. We were in Cardiff for a Metallica concert therefore all accommodation was pretty much fully booked. Vrbo told me they would refund the accommodation and if I found somewhere else they would compensate up to £300 but I had to pay it out first. The only accommodation I could find to house all five of use was at a cost of £1,100 which I simply did not have therefore we had to drive over 4 hours home with a child, if we'd have got the train, that would not have been an option. It's one thing leaving adults homeless for one night but they also left a child homeless which is unforgivable!!! Expedia then passed the buck to Vrbo even though my contract was with them and they have the legal requirement to deal with it. We missed the band because we did not want to drive through the night with a child in the car therefore leaving us £426 out of pocket plus £100 fuel costs. I used to use both hotel.com and expedia when I stayed away with work, but as they are both run by the same company, I will not use either of them again and will definitely not be using Vrbo either. The response from expedia to this review was also unhelpful just telling me to go to the help centre. This is what I have already done and nobody at expedia was interested in my issue, the fact we missed the gig of a lifetime for my daughter, the fact we lost £426 on gig tickets and the fact we had an 8 hour round trip for no reason with approximately £100 worth of fuel used!!!

I booked a package with Expedia, including a hotel that was advertised by Expedia as including breakfast. On contacting the hotel Expedia have booked room only.
I spoke to Expedia who claim that whilst they advertise as breakfast being included, you are not actually paying for breakfast, but for the 'entitlement to buy breakfast when staying at the hotel'. I have also complained twice to Expedia who haven't even bothered to respond.
I will now be progressing to Trading Standards, I urge anyone to avoid Expedia - as the majority of other reviews show, this company is a borderline scam.
***UPDATE***
Following your reply to this review, I did contact you via Livechat. Despite providing screenshot proof of the price quoted including breakfast (matching the amount I paid) I have yet again been met with excuses. Mistakes happen, but it's how you deal with it that counts. I gave you the opportunity to simply put this right but instead Expedia simply try to deflect and ignore. I will now proceed to take this further.

Flight purchased 5 months in advance from Palermo to Rome. On trying to check in, flight did not exist. Carrier had rescheduled the flight to another time (5 hours later) and informed me they had notified Expedia in May who in turn had not notified me. The time of the rescheduled flight did not work so I contacted Expedia and asked for a change to another carrier. Spoke to AI / Robots for 2 hours or so and got nowhere - instructed therefore to cancel the flight and I purchased an alternative. Expedia have since refused to reimburse me for the original flight stating I was a "no show."

Tried to book a package holiday via Expedia. Upon payment being processed flights were booked via british airways but hotel booking was declined. website told me to use different payment method. I asked support they said no booking went through so flight money would be refunded. Tried again same issue. Been waiting 1 month for the refund. Told me after 2 weeks i would get money in 3-5 days. any delay would be bank issue. Bank said its not them its the merchant.

I was given a contact to call customer service via trust pilot and it was an on line customer service
I duly gave my itinerary number and followed instructions as given on here
The customer service was terrible they did not want to know they had no time for my husband
Please do not hire a car through this company
We have tried several times to get a refund how many other people have been let down and lost their money by going though this company as a third party loads I suspect
You don’t even deserve one star Expedia you deserve no stars

Reply from Expedia.co.uk
If there was an option to leave zero stars I would have. I have had an incredibly difficult experience with customer service and the unwillingness to help is astronomical. Please avoid booking (especially anything important such as flights) through expedia. Book directly with airlines/hotels etc or with a reputable travel agency. ** I have tried contacting customer service following your response, still having a terrible time and keep getting messed about.

I was going to give you my story of my experience with Expedia, however with all the ratings on terrible which is exactly what it is I don’t need to bother if I could give it a -10 I would, so I won’t waste my time

Double booked a hotel room by mistake.
Tried to cancel but was given the runaround for two hours before giving up.
We were put in a contiuous loop with different phone numbers to call.
Appalling! Completely blatant !
Use at your peril .

I wish I could give them 0 tbh - it’s taken over 3 weeks for them to realise that I’m due a refund after countless calls, emails and rude customer service agents. Also many agents I spoke to never wrote down our communication or call that I had with them which further delayed me getting my refund! Just know if you’re booking with them don’t expect an easy ride with getting a refund should you need it.
Aswell I am 24 and booked a car under Expedia for me to turn up and the company said they will only hire to 25. When I explained to the car company and Expedia that I had stated my age at the time of booking and the policy did also document that additional fees may apply for young drivers Expedia completely dismissed me saying it was my fault for booking with them. When in fact it’s Expedia’s responsibility to not show me unsuitable services when I’ve provided the correct details. I’d just completely avoid Expedia if i was you and use ANY other booking platforms available

I would give them zero stars if I could. Booked flights with this scamming company . One flight the airline have said we’re not booked on and have never booked on. Expedia have charged us full price for both flights and can’t get the money back

I requested a cancellation of the return leg of an emirates flight booked through Expedia from London to India with a stop over in Dubai. I rang up the Delhi office and asked for cancellation of the flight and the refund of the return section due to the war in the Middle East war and the targeting of Dubai airport by drones and missiles. I had no choice as apart from the Danger the U.K. had issues a travel advisory to stop all travel to the emirates by U.K. citizens as it was declared unsafe. My insurance policy would have been also cancelled. I was told by emirates in Delhi that I will receive an email from Expedia with regard to my refund. I have received no communication for three months. Dealing with Expedia feels like they are running a scam.

Booked Hotel, Expedia then send an email 'your booking won't now be honoured, hotel no longer operating'! Then get email from hotel 'booking will be honoured' by which time I'd booked an alternative so had duplicate bookings. Contact Expedia requesting cancellation of initial booking. Expedia cancel ALL!
Truly awful!!

My wife is atuck in Norway as Expedia will not correct the name on her ticket. They blame the airline and the airline blame them. Do not use...

Reply from Expedia.co.uk
Worst customer service. My whole trip worth more then £3000 was aborted due to missed and delayed flights. Zero help or backup help. Couldn’t contact Expedia as every time a virtual agent was offered and this was the worst as the person either was unhelpful or left the chat halfway. Seemed like they went through the motions with no real motivation to help. Had to write off the money.

Reply from Expedia.co.uk
I bought a ticket and after paying and everything I haven’t received anything when I tried to contact them they said we don’t have you in our records although I’ve sent them all the evidence don’t ever buy from them
