This is a simple review:I have had no problems with Sky in over 20 auctions with them.They are not travel agents. My guess is that they are consolidators and that they act to sell excess space, bartered accomodations and services, ...

I was apprehensive to book with Sky Auction, after reading negative reviews. However, upon a friend's recommendation, I decided to proceed. I'm glad I did. The resort auction I bid on was advertised with the prices for adults. Because we were ...

I booked a last-minute trip to Florida to use a United Airlines travel voucher before the expiry date and used SkyAuction.com for the hotel segment of my trip. I found a beachfront hotel in Hollywood with a check-in date that I needed (2 days away). ...

I have taken 3 major vacations thru SkyAuction and have yet to encounter a problem. All vacations included airfare and hotel. In all cases, I got the dates I requested and also opted to add-on airfare from my hometown, which was a great deal on the ...

I have gotten a few good deals with skyauction but those appear to be disappearing. Increasingly they do not confirm hotels till the last moment and then you are often left with nothing and unable at that time to get a hotel room at any price. What is ...

I won dining & Broadway show tickets and as yet have heard nothing from Skyauction. I'm not anxious for the tickets, because I know I'll NEVER get them. I got a very good price, you see, so when I do hear from them the tickets will be 'unavailable', but ...

DO NOT USE THEM if you want personal service. DO NOT use them because if you run into problems they will not fix them and will not care about fixing them. I had a trip for 19 people flight and hotel planned. The air was totally cancelled (charter ...

Like thousands of other skyauction.com customers, I purchased their dining certificates, which are used at face value ($25, $50, or $100) at restaurants throughout the US and sold via auction (the bidder pays less than face value). I used 3 of 6 at Park ...

SKYAUCTION.COM is the best for great land deals. I've never flown on Skyauction and wouldn't suggest it. The customer service simply isn't quick enough for the fluctuating airline market. The air prices themselves aren't generally all that much better ...

Most of the reviews so far have been regarding Holiday packages/cruises but my auction win was for any number of nights in a 5* Hotel,NY therefore I'm not too sure what the appropriate timescale is for hotel only auctions. Anyway, I won my auction at ...

Yesterday, I "won" an auction for a 7-night stay at a hotel and was so excited that I submitted my travel dates without first checking with my husband. (I know BIG MISTAKE!) I too was dazzled and amazed by the low, low, prices. As goes with Murphy's law, ...
