I was booking a package with hotel and flight. Selected everything and entered all my information, then the website would not let me purchase. I called to book through the phone and they were going to charge me a higher price than on the website. The representative told me that the price she had was real time, even though I was on their website and had everything updated. Horrible website and terrible service.

Incorrect reservation and no help available through Expedia. They don’t even have a number you can call.

I specifically requested a car rental that was in the terminal of the airport. That is not what I got and there’s no one at Expedia to respond to anything. I even spoke with the car rental place and I asked if they were located in the terminals and they said yes we’ll tell you which terminal to get the car from when you land so now it’s too late for me to cancel and get my money back and use a company that is in the airport as I requested.

I NEVER USED THIS SITE AND IM SIGNING UP JUST TO SAY

DO NOT USE EXPEDIA!

I was trying to cancel a flight (how easy) I have called them 10 times and they were just saying there is nothing we can do cuz their tickiting team is not answering

Like how’s that my problem? And they kept saying there’s nothing I can do

They emailed the “team” but it’s just bs cuz they emailed them 10 times before

In a nutshell DO NOT USE THEM just book straight from the airlines with offices so they can have some accountability

I booked a rental car through Expedia…

I booked a rental car through Expedia and received a full confirmation with no issues.
Later, when I tried to modify the reservation, I was sent back and forth between Expedia and the rental company multiple times. Neither side wanted to take responsibility.
So I went directly to the rental location, and that’s when I found out the real problem.
The rental company does not rent to local residents with a Florida driver’s license.
This was NEVER clearly disclosed during the booking process.
Let that sink in: Expedia allowed me to complete and confirm a reservation that was not even valid based on the rental company’s policy.
If I hadn’t gone in person ahead of time, I would have shown up on the day of my trip with no car.
That’s not a small inconvenience that’s a complete failure of the booking system.
Expedia should:
Clearly flag major restrictions like this before checkout
Prevent bookings that violate partner policies
Take responsibility instead of redirecting customers in circles
Instead, I wasted time, dealt with unnecessary stress, and had to chase down a refund that should have been automatic.
This experience seriously damaged my trust in using Expedia for future bookings.
Use caution when booking through third-party platforms, you may not be getting the full picture.

Expedia canceled our flight

In 2025, we cancelled our original flight due to a family emergency. We received a flight credit from Expedia to use the following year before June when it would expire. My mom called to the redeem the credit for a flight on April 21-28, 2026. On April 2, Expedia cancelled the flight for no explanation. The rep said that he could see the flight on Delta's side, but not on Expedia's, and my mom didn't get an explanation from the supervisor. Delta honored the flight credit on the itinerary number, and luckily, the Delta agent waived the change fee and the additional fare difference.

Don't trust Expedia! They're a sham!

Never buy the Expedia’s Trip Protection Insurance

It’s hard to believe that a company with such a well‑known name would play games with trip protection insurance. My conference was canceled, which forced me to cancel my airline tickets. When I submitted a claim, it was denied because coverage only applies to cancellations due to illness or injury. Yet when promoting the trip protection program, Expedia advertises “100% cancellations covered.” I admit I didn’t read the fine print—but after this experience, those same fine‑print policies guarantee I’ll never book another trip through Expedia.

“I had a very disappointing experience with Expedia. I booked my flight through them and received travel credits after cancellation due to medical reasons. Unfortunately, I couldn’t use the credits on time due to ongoing health issues.

When I contacted Expedia, they said the airline controls the credits. When I contacted the airline, they said Expedia is responsible since the booking was made through them. I was left stuck between both parties with no resolution.

I understand policies, but I was only requesting a one-time goodwill exception due to genuine medical reasons. Unfortunately, no support or escalation was provided.

Very disappointed with the lack of responsibility and customer support.

Expedia partners with predatory companies

I have booked trips many times with Expedia without issue. This last trip was a flight, hotel, and car to Florida. The car offered in the package just listed total price and car type. Price was not broken down by flights, hotels and auto rental. I booked package and afterwards I saw the rental carrier was Zezgo, a company I never heard of. It turns out they were an offsite carrier in Miami. The shuttle brought us to the office and upon arrival we were told we must purchase manadatory insurance adding hundreds of $$ to our bill. Everyone in line was being surprised with additional fees. I called Expedia. I was put thru a labrynth of holds and waits will standing in the parking lot. I explained my situation and told them I was now stranded away from the airport, out of town, with my wife, son and luggage. I asked for a car from another company. I was given no help and instead offered a $70 refund for my week long reservation. The $70? Never got it. I had to bribe the shuttle driver to take me back to the airport, go from company to company searching for an available car. This search cost me hours of my vacation and $260. Expedia should not be partnering with this predatory company. Expedia should take the prerogative to help their customers when a problem arises and make it right

Terrible company

Terrible company. My listings are not correct or importing incorrect rates continually. This has resulted in problems with guests' expectations. I am paying them, and they are not complying with my contract. I can't wait to stop doing business with this company. I have received less-than-optimal reviews because of incorrect information on the listing pages. Do not do business with Expedia if you can help it.

Do not book through Expedia

Do not book through Expedia. It is not worth it there are other sites you could save with Expedia wanted to offer me 20% after I canceled my two night stay at the Baymont by Wyndham. I was never compensated for paying 200 dollars and because I left I paid another 200 to book at a much nicer hotel with a working tv and heating system. Expedia told me there was nothing that they could do but offer me 20%key cash.

Extremely disappointing experience with Expedia. I canceled a hotel reservation within minutes of booking, yet was still charged over $500 due to a “non-refundable” policy.

What’s frustrating is not just the policy, but the complete lack of support. I contacted Expedia immediately, and there was no attempt to help, escalate, or even consider the timing of the cancellation. It felt like the company was hiding behind rigid rules instead of trying to resolve a reasonable situation.

When you book through a third party like Expedia, you expect some level of customer advocacy. Instead, they simply passed responsibility to the hotel and offered no real assistance.

I attempted to resolve this directly before posting this review, but received no meaningful help. This experience has made me lose trust in using Expedia. Booking directly with hotels seems like a far safer option.
