Crownfares Opiniões 

This company website kind of popped up during my search for airline tickets. They had decent prices and I booked. Immediately upon funds leaving my account (I know this because I was talking to the bank to stop the purchase at the time) they sent an email claiming they had attempted to contact me multiple times and please call them due to urgent action needed. At that point, I was told by the agent at the very start of our conversation, that the booking was non-refundable. A point he would make several times. Finally I was directed to a supervisor, ostensibly to see what dates were available (he said within 6 days of my selection) to fly. The supervisor gave me a date of about a month after my dates OR...pay about $1,000 to them for the ticket price difference. THEN, they go on to say that ALL their flights are discounted and therefore NONE of them are eligible for refund. It should be noted that the agents repeatedly claimed incorrectly that the site claimed all dates were flexible and that it was clear that I would likely need to travel on dates other than those I selected. Nope. Now I am struggling to get the charges reversed. Fixed income, no problem, they'll take your money. They then sent me confirmation for a flight 3 months out. 3 MONTHS!!!

Purchased a discounted flight online. Was charged for the flight. Never received the e-ticket, but did receive confirmation of flight purchase. Called and was told that there weren't any discount seats available for the flight purchased. They wouldn't refund my money, even though there weren't any discount seats available. Then they offered for me to pay the difference a full price ticket for the desired flight that was more than purchasing the ticket directly from the airline. It's a scam! The company is misleading people into thinking they can get a flight for a huge discount, then tells you you have to wait 24 hours for a discount seat to be available. Definitely, do not use them for unplanned or emergency flights!

I wish I could give them less than Zero star. The Crownfares website is just a scam!!!!! Do not get tricked by the low price of tickets when you are booking. These people have to be arrested as they are doing fraud. I hope they get reported and they get punished for their fraudulent actions of stealing people’s money. I booked two tickets with them on line. After an hour, they called that we can not accommodate your requested dates and airport, and you have to pay $500 more for each tickets. Total with whatever I paid first, the ticket would cost me double than the main airlines. They kept forcing me to pay more, and they can not refund my payment. They said I have to pay another $90 then they will refund part of money. They passed phone to each other, calling themselves as manager/ booking representative and all these lies. There were absolutely no where saying about fare subject to increases when I was booking and paying at the first place.Apparently, they wait until you finish your payment, then they put in their confirmation email that the fares are subject to change. This is the highest level of dishonesty and fraud. Please don’t book any single ticket with Crownfares. They are scammers. I lost my hard earned money to these thieves. This is very unacceptable. I want my money back. They are in India. The address they have in the website is a fake one. My on line ticket booking turned to a very stressful and upsetting experience which a bunch of scammers put me through in it.

If there were an option to give zero stars, I would give them zero.

Be very careful before booking a ticket with this company. In my experience, once you book and pay, you can lose your money. They changed the date of my ticket without my agreement, and I was left not knowing when I was supposed to travel.

When I contacted them and asked for help, they simply told me, “It’s in the terms and conditions.”

This was a terrible and frustrating experience. I feel like I was scammed, and I would not recommend this company to anyone.

If I could give this absolute joke of a company a zero-star rating, I would do it in a heartbeat! Crownfares (and Farecrown) is a complete and total rip-off!

They reel you in with a low price, you book your dates, and then they pull the ultimate, infuriating bait-and-switch. Out of nowhere, they call you back claiming the airline "can't accommodate" those dates anymore. Then comes the trap: they try to force you into other dates while doubling the original price! It is an absolute scam designed to hold your travel plans hostage.

Do not—I say DO NOT—go to their website under any circumstances! Save yourself the rage and stay far away from these fraudsters.

Just so everyone knows they suck, they give you one price for a ticket and then they text you the itinerary just to come back the next couple of hours and tell you that there’s a problem and when you call you have to upgrade and upgrade and it cost you double or triple the money. Don’t ever ever go through this app they don’t change anything, they don’t help you, they don’t refund you, the only choice you have with them is to upgrade the minute you called get ready to upgrade and add triple what you already paid.

It is a complete bait and switch. Booked the flight got the booking reference number which was only an in-house number. Wanted me to pay $500 additional for my flight. To be waitlisted without disclosure. Was on the phone for hours trying to clear up. They want to me to pay for cancellation when they couldn't get me on the flight. Don't do it

They called and tried to upsell me. Then, after receiving confirmation, changed the flight from direct to one stop.

I purchased a ticket, received a phone call that I was on standby and there were no openings until Oct. No, where did it state that I was purchasing a standby ticket. I then went to the airline where my ticket was through and purchased a ticket with the same flight that crownfares said was booked with no opening. They took my money and where not easy to work with. They are very misleading and thefts.

⚠️ BE VERY CAREFUL WITH CROWN FARES ⚠️

I made two bookings and received “Booking Success” emails, but never received the actual airline-issued e-tickets. After charging me $146.31 USD and $556.48 USD, I was later told I needed to pay substantially more money. For one booking, I was told the additional amount was over $900 USD for the second passenger.

I refused to pay more and requested cancellation/refund, but was told I could not get my money back. I also experienced calls being disconnected when trying to resolve the issue.

I have saved all emails, booking confirmations, payment records, and communications and have submitted them to my credit-card company for review.

My personal experience has been extremely concerning. I would strongly recommend verifying directly with the airline that a ticket has actually been issued before paying Crown Fares any additional money.

SCAM SCAM SCAMMMMMMM
These scammers got me good
I fell for it unfortunately
Only giving 1 star because I have to
This is a total scam as everyone else has experienced
Don’t fall for it
Call your bank and get your funds back once it clears and is no longer pending
Just had to do it
How they’re still allowed to operate as a business is beyond me
The lady was yelling at me on the phone and told me i shouldn’t have contacted my airline. The airline had no info with my name or booking ever being processed. Scamiest of scammy !!!
Says there is Miami
But they’re clearly in India somewhere
Don’t ever use them
Make sure you get your bank to refund your money and block them from ever using your card again !!!!!!!!!!

They are nothing but scammers.

It’s bait and switch. Paid 331.56 for 2 one way tickets then was contacted the next day and told that i had to pay an additional $1000 dollars for the tickets. No refund. AVOID this site.

I booked a flight on August 31 and received a message saying that my e-ticket would arrive within approximately four hours.

I never received an e-ticket, ticket number, or final airline confirmation. More than 24 hours passed with no ticket and no confirmation, so I reasonably believed the booking had not been completed.

Then, approximately two days after I made the reservation, the charge appeared on my card.

I have tried several times to contact CrownFares by phone. On my most recent call, the representative asked me for my booking reference number. I provided it, and the call was disconnected. I have not been able to get proper assistance, and I could not find a clear way to cancel the reservation online.

Because I never received a valid e-ticket and could not rely on this reservation, I had to purchase another ticket.

This has been an extremely frustrating experience. I strongly recommend checking reviews before booking and making sure you receive an actual e-ticket before relying on a CrownFares reservation.

If I could 0 stars for this company, I would. I was totally frustrated while booking with this crappy website!

They cannot guarantee your booking dates (not even for 2 days) and charge you a fee for cancelling the booking.

Very bad experience with scummy tactics

Same as other customers. I had a bad feeling about this and I went against my better judgement. I am in the middle of the bait and switch. It’s complicated and annoying. And I’m thinking about just taking my loses and refuse to give more money. They can give me my flight at the price I bought or not. This is already an awful experience. All of this is unnecessary and wrong.
Who has advice on what I should do?

This is a typical Bait-n-Switch scam travel site. I booked a flight and after paying my travel dates was changed. Major scam site. Stay away!!

⚠️ My Experience With CrownFares — Please Be Careful
Address provided on their site:
247 Sunset Cliff Dr
Jasper, GA 30143, USA

I am ashamed and deeply upset to say that I believe I have been badly scammed by CrownFares.

I booked flights through CrownFares believing I was making a legitimate travel reservation. I had specific flights, dates, and an airport in mind and paid for that itinerary based on the price I was quoted.

After my payment was authorized, I received a booking confirmation, but I did not receive the actual airline ticket confirmations or airline e-ticket numbers. I was then told that the original fare was no longer available and that I would need to pay substantially more.

Afterward, my reservation was changed to different flights, different dates, and a different airport—changes that I did not agree to.

When I tried to cancel the booking and get my money back, I was told that I did not have the option to cancel. I spent hours on the phone repeatedly asking them to cancel the booking and refund my money. I became so overwhelmed and distressed that I cried and begged them to refund me.

Instead of simply processing my cancellation request, I was repeatedly presented with more expensive alternatives and pressured to choose another date or airline.

I did not want a different date. I did not want a different airline. I did not want a different airport. I wanted the itinerary I originally paid for—or, if that could no longer be provided at the agreed price, I wanted to cancel and receive a refund.

At this point, I feel completely trapped and taken advantage of. I paid for one itinerary, my travel arrangements were changed, and I was told that I could not cancel.

I am also concerned about the address provided to me for CrownFares. The address listed above appears to be a residential property in Georgia. I am sharing this only as part of my experience and to encourage other travelers to independently verify the company they are dealing with.

I also believe that if a fare is advertised on a company's website and a customer agrees to purchase based on that advertised price, the company should honor what its website advertises rather than changing the price after payment has been authorized.

I am sharing this because I don't want anyone else to experience the same stress, frustration, and potential financial loss that I am experiencing. Based on my experience, I would strongly advise travelers not to book through CrownFares without doing extensive research and independently verifying everything.

Please be extremely careful before booking. Verify your ticket directly with the airline, confirm that the ticket has actually been issued, obtain the airline's e-ticket number, confirm the exact itinerary, and make sure you fully understand the cancellation and refund terms before paying.

I never imagined that something as ordinary as booking an airline ticket could turn into such a stressful and upsetting experience.

I am not posting this to attack anyone. I am posting it because I want my money back, I want this situation resolved, and I want other travelers to be aware of what happened to me.

If you are considering booking with CrownFares, please do your research and proceed with extreme caution.
