This website has some of the lowest ticket prices.

I found this website through Bookings.com and it had the lowest price for the trip my husband and I were planning. Even though it stated my confirmation booking I for would be available in 96hrs, I received mine in less than 6hrs.

Good flight booking, but buy optional extras directly from the airline

I want to be fair with this review.

My flight reservation through BudgetAir was processed correctly, the booking appeared in the WestJet app, and I have no complaint regarding the legitimacy of the airfare itself.

My disappointment concerns the seat-selection service.

During the booking process, I remembered selecting seats for both the outbound and return flights. BudgetAir later reviewed their transaction logs and confirmed that only seats 23A and 23B for the outbound Edmonton–Las Vegas flight were actually processed.

I accept that there may have been a misunderstanding during the booking process and that I could have been mistaken about the return seats.

However, what surprised me considerably was the price.

BudgetAir charged me USD 48 and USD 46 — USD 94 total — for two standard seats on the outbound flight, including their agency processing fees.

After this was clarified, I purchased two seats for the return flight directly from WestJet for only USD 26.30 total.

I understand that these are different flight segments and that seat prices can vary. Nevertheless, the difference was significant enough that I believe other travelers should be aware of it.

Had I realized that the USD 94 charge covered only two standard seats on one flight, I would not have purchased the seat selection through BudgetAir.

My recommendation is simple: BudgetAir may offer competitive airfare, but before purchasing optional extras such as seat selection, baggage or other services, compare the price directly with the airline first.

In my case, purchasing the return seat selection directly from WestJet was dramatically cheaper.

The airfare itself was booked correctly, and customer service did eventually provide a detailed explanation after reviewing the transaction logs. However, based on this experience, in the future I would consider using BudgetAir for the flight fare while purchasing optional extras directly from the airline.

Hello Humberto,

Thank you for taking the time to share your review. Feedback like this helps keep processes transparent and clear for everyone.

Having your flight booking go through smoothly is great to hear, though the price difference for the seat selection was clearly a surprise. Service fees cover the additional processing and support on our side, but keeping these options clear and straightforward remains a priority.

Your detailed notes about comparing prices and checking transaction logs are appreciated, as this helps improve the booking experience moving forward. Should any other questions come up regarding this booking, please feel free to reach out directly via chat.

Kind regards,
Mark | Customer Service

Hi Irfan,

Thank you for your review and for booking with us. It's great to hear you had a positive experience.

Regarding your booking, carry-on baggage is different from checked luggage. The note 'luggage not included' refers to checked bags. Your carry-on allowance is confirmed. We hope this clears things up and look forward to helping you with future travel plans.

Could not book our seats

Could not book our seats.

Thank you for your response. However your “glitch” caused more issues.

1) When I went to purchase seats for one of the flights where the glitch occurred the cost was in USD not CAD, which I had originally paid for the seat, costing me more money

2) The seat map for the return flight showed all middle seats for the entire plane were not available to purchase, i.e X out. I was forced to buy aisle and window seats for myself and my partner. Only to find out when I looked at the seat map on the airline website they were available to purchase. Now my partner and I are not sitting next to each AND we can’t change them.

Your company failed on multiple accounts, cause me to pay more than I would buying the tickets directly from the airline And would not remedy the issue and took no responsibility.

I will never use nor recommend your company

Hello Joseph,

Thank you for sharing your feedback. Having trouble selecting seats during the booking process can certainly be disappointing when preparing for a trip.

Seat allocations are managed directly within the airline system, which can occasionally cause technical glitches during the booking flow. The seat selection process is best completed directly through the airline's website using your booking reference, where live seat maps and availability are updated in real time.

Kind regards,

I was surprised not to receive the e ticket after payment and instead there was message that ticket will be sent within 4 days. That is disappointing!
This never happened with any website I used before.
