Has anyone used Sky Auction .com

[Allyssa]

Hi there,
Does anyone have experience using sky auction.com? I was checking into flights to London and there are some going for $1 (with taxes and all the posted fees it turns out to be about $500.) Is this some total scam or has anyone had positive results with this? I'd love any heads up you can give!

Blessings,
Allyssa

We won a bid on Skyauction.com for a cruise in Fiji. We paid US$450 for a cabin upgrade and US$80 for transfers to and from the airport. Neither of these 2 services were given to us and upon our return, they ignored our e-mails claiming simply that they were “investigating our case”. This has already dragged on for 4 months and I don’t think we would ever hear from Skyauction again if we hadn’t gotten American Express involved, asking them to reimburse us. Even so, Skyauction’s claims are simply unbelievable, saying that we were given compensations like drink credits on the cruise. What a scam!! Stay away from skyauction.com!!

Good to know -- thank you very much. I didn't end up traveling with them and from what I have been hearing I won't be.

I have used Sky Auctions several times with great results. I found them very professional, and I am very satisfied with their service. A person always has to be aware of what they are buying, and read any find print.
