We understand that the current climate is hard for everyone, but these guys are showing their true colours. We booked to go to Vanuatu as we have done many times. We normally book our own flights and accommodation but I received an email from this company and thought I would give it a try. So obviously our trip was cancelled. No problem, to be expected at the moment and I’ve had a few holidays canceled over the years. I had rang this company about the cancellation in December last year which they confirmed. I have over $1900 in credit with them so I thought I would use them to book new flights. They sent me a quote to fly from Sydney to Brisbane with the same people , at a cost of over an extra $1000 I have tried over and over and over and over to get my credit sorted . I have talked to virgin directly and they informed me that they can provide the credit directly if travel online agree to hand over the control of tickets. When I told the travel online consultant about this their response was; when you ring virgin you deal with a retail representative and when we (travel online) ring we deal with a wholesale team that don’t give us the cheapest flights! On top of that on the phone they where really rude and condescending in manner. If I had of just booked directly like I normally do I would not be writing this right now. You are far better protected going direct. I really have to as What value do you add travel online? If I can order directly and get a cheaper deal ?
Please be careful people! If you want to book a holiday through a travel consultant, check out the reviews first. I sure wish I had of .
