SCAM!!!
SCAM!!! Do not EVER book with Skytrend. They refused to give me the Air Canada ref number. They said I had to pay an additional $1,500 so that I could bring luggage! What? After a bit of research, airlines do not offer special prices if you don’t bring a luggage. They are using luggage to scam people! As the payment had not gone through yet, I called AMEX and cancelled my card. 5hrs later: I booked another flight with a bogus credit card. I received a confirmation of my flight. This tells me they do not bill your credit card right away so you have time to cancel your card and keep your money. Nov 10: 1. Skytrend is not registered in the BBB. 2. Skytrend has not been vetted by IATA (I sent IATA an email) and 3. I have sent an email to Tripsinsider.com to relay my story and have them removed from their suggested list.
