Aunt Betty first sent a schedule change that made my itinerary impossible to complete (15min connections, flights that leave before inbound flight arrivals etc.). On my third try of connecting to support, their best suggestion was to change it so that my arrival was over 12hrs later than what was originally scheduled. When I proposed an itinerary… Read more

that left and arrived at a similar time but on a different airline, they said it was not possible. Mau was nice but did take a little while to catch on to what I was trying to propose. We will see how we go after confirmation of fixing this stuff up.

Extremely poor handling of a flight schedule change An airline changed one of my flights, and I was not even notified by Aunt Betty. I only discovered the change myself when I tried to select seats for my flights. I contacted Aunt Betty for assistance, and almost 20 days later, the issue is still unresolved. During this time, I have been told… Read more

multiple times that I would receive an update within 24–48 hours. Every time, the 48 hours passed without any response, and I had to follow up myself — only to be given another 24–48 hour timeframe.

Most recently, I was again promised an update within 24–48 hours. That deadline has now passed too, and once again, silence.

I completely understand that Aunt Betty cannot control an airline's schedule changes. What they can control is how they communicate with their customers and how they handle the situation afterwards.

After almost 20 days, I am still chasing them for an answer about a significant change to my international itinerary.

Extremely disappointing customer service.

We recently booked flights to Europe and back and it is a first with Aunt Betty. The whole process was completely seamless and I can fully recommend this service. I usually book direct with the airline!! I also had a query this morning and Dana from Customer Service provided quick and excellent service - just gets better!! Show details

Erick was able to help me out through byojet.com. I had questions on refund and time zone differences and she answered all of them with good attitude and patience. I have not refunded, but I am back-and-forth between staying or going home and needed to know answers Show details

I contacted customer service to get help changing my flight. Although I had to wait for more than an hour on the phone, the service quality and attitude were excellent, so overall I was quite satisfied with the support they provided. Show details

I went to Aunt Betty to purchase flight ticket and spent hours, Aunt Betty put fake lower price on their website to play with customers, when I finally made payment they always reject my payment and made excuses stated that there is bank issues so on, so far 4 times already, then they using new price which is much higher than original price, and… Read more

convivence me to go with high price, it is very cheating and there is no transparency to the customers, this issue has happened several times to me recently, I will make formal complaint against them, please see following fake price for 2 people

Now the problem has been solved and I have received my E tickets, but they need to issue E ticket instantly like before

Very very poor service – Chose Aunt Betty as the ticketing agent for travel to and from Europe. Very very bad choice. I so wish I hadn't chosen Aunt Betty. Ticketing went fine, paid my money, Aunt Betty made its commission. Then a leg of the trip was cancelled by the… Read more

airline and I went back to the ticketing agent to make alternative arrangements. No interest whatsoever. Wait on the phone for 3 hours to speak to an agent. Cant help! Go to the airline. Airline says the ticketing Agent must make the new arrangements. Send many messages to Aunt Betty but NO response. Once Aunt Betty takes your commission you are on your own. Matter still not resolved. Aunt Betty just wont help even though it received my money and the commission. Very very poor service. Dont ever use Aunt Betty if you have an alternative.

 Follow-up  · It was a simple itinerary - sydney istanbul sydney. Total duration of trip was 2 weeks. Aunt Betty was simply appalling. The wait times to the offshore call centres were 40 to 60 minutes. The interest and action was non existent. Never never ever choose Aunt Betty. They take a fee and deliver nothing. Go directly to the airline not an agent.

airline after that. Then wait up to 12 weeks for a refund. No thanks. This is against consumer law - have put a charge back on credit card. Did not book requested seats and charged more. cannot get through to customer service!!! and when you do they don't speak English well. Its problematic!!!

 Follow-up  · Got email about refund. Somehow became 16 weeks. Have reported X-Cover to ACFA for letting these ain’t Betty agents try to arrange insurance changes. Reality is they don’t nor are they licensed to. Only received confirmation of complaint for insurance when contacting ACFA. I stand by my

Vince helped me changed the flights that l needed with extreme efficiency and l appreciate him a lot. The original flight was moved by the airline to a later time which was not suitable for us but Vince swiftly found a better flight and it all happened on the weekend! I would recommend Aunt Betty to my friends for sure.

I was charged $199.44 by Aunt Betty for seat selection for 3 adults on my China Southern Airlines booking.After my ticket was issued, I checked my booking directly on the official China Southern Airlines website and found that I could select the same seats free of charge. I have screenshots from the official China Southern website showing that the… Read more

seats were available for free selection.I have contacted Aunt Betty and requested a full refund of the $199.44 seat selection fee. I am currently waiting for their response. I find it very concerning that I was charged nearly $200 for seat selection when the same seats could be selected directly through the airline at no additional cost.I hope Aunt Betty will review this matter and provide a full refund. If this issue is not resolved, I will consider escalating the matter to the relevant Australian consumer protection authorities. I will update this review once Aunt Betty responds.

Sep2026. We really wanted to support Australian companies but regretfully AB should be refrained from. It costed us more and gave us more stress. AB failed to provide the paid seats selection for international flights (free if tickets were bought directly with the airlines). The refund request for the failed service (seat selection fee of less… Read more

than $70) needed 2 support tickets, 13 emails, 1 feedback survey and more than 4 weeks to resolve. We could had saved a few dollars and avoided the stress had we bought the flight directly with the airlines.

Very dodgy when it came to changing my flights. The flights were still the same price as when I originally made the booking, but the agent insisted that there was a fare difference. This is how travel agents make extra money, by overcharging customers for changes. Honestly, it’s not fair. Aunt Betty is already charging a change fee, so there’s no need to overcharge customers on top of that. Not recommended.

The worst ever online company to buy, never buy tickets through aunt betty because once you paid their tickets are non refundable, if you buy refundable ticket it is through a third party. Also if you want to change a date of travel this agency will charge you more then the ticket price. I bought ticket for $2100 and for change of date either one… Read more

month earlier or one month later they were asking $2750 on top of $2100 that i paid. DO NOT BUY THROUGH AUNT BETTY ANY FLIGHT TICKETS.
