While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience.

Don't believe any booking you make with them. They'll refer you to a partner like Travelouts, who will take your reservation, then tell you they can't confirm it because the airline changed the price... See more

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?

When you send the fair alerts

When you send the fair alerts, I click on them and it doesn’t take me to any site. What is the point of having a fare alert?

Thanks for your review and comments. Airfare alerts may not come in on a daily basis; depending on your origin, destination and time of year when you are watching airfare, the price could remain the same from one day to the other.

But do not lose hope. We will definitely update you when the price changes.

Quite Valuable

Easy to use and shows almost every conceivable itinerary. Especially valuable is the comparison utility to show fares by city within specific dates.

Thanks for your honest feedback about our site. We place great importance on usability of the site, and as a site that shows airfare results from multiple sources, at times the results can seem overwhelming.

One suggestion we encourage when you first search for airfare: utilize the filters on the left side (once you see the results). You can apply filters (duration, takeoff time, airlines, etc.) which could help narrow the itineraries down to the one that is most desirable to you.

We hope this helps, and if you have any follow-up questions, please don't hesitate to contact us.

We encourage you to continue to utilize our site; airlines are always competing to for your travel budget, and our site is a quick way to compare multiple options at once.
