Im watching a flight on sky auction and I see that travel is allowed on the dates I need but is there a catch or some thing I should know ?
Thanks
Bill

When you win the bid, you tell them your exact dates and they will let you know if an airline will accommodate those dates. They may come back with a different itinerary in which case you can decline the offer if it is not acceptable to you.

Another catch is the fees, surcharges and taxes that they put in fine-print at the bottom of the listing, which can be substantially more than the bid-price itself. Whatever you bid, be sure to include those in your cost.

After you win, would you submit the travel dates online ? If the dates are not compatible does sky auction refund your purchase price ?

Sky Auction doesnt seem to have a phone number.

thanks

I have bought tickets there twice and got good deals even with the fees, and got tickets that earned miles (not all Sky Auction tickets do, you have to ask), and I submitted my dates over the internet. One was a long return where the airline would have really jacked up the fee, so it was a really good deal.

Yes, if the offer is not acceptable, you will get a refund.

I have booked a really luxury hotel in Spain via Skyauctions.

Submitting dates was online and the whole communication was throough an online form and then I just replied to the emails they sent me.

Communication has been really good and everything went very well with the hotel.

I can only recommend Skyauctions for hotels stays (that is the only thing I did through them)

Did anybody book this RCI timeshare getaway certificate? Does that make any sense compared to RCI and II getaways?
