I'm seeing a lot of popup ad and other ad on facebook & instagram for companies advertising far cheaper business class fares than one would expect , anyway I tried a couple of them out,
I received a call from an agent in the USA saying yes we can do this for you, result was the fare was almost the same as that offered by the airline direct!
Next I tried , I received a call from an Australian number ( I'm currently on holiday in Mexico and using a mexican number) so we went through my proposed itinerary , the guy didn't have an aussie accent and I asked where he was from , he replied "I'm in Uzbekistan!"
He promised me he had access to low fare etc, so when receiving the itinerary again it didnt match up with what I requested although its coming in about $600 cheaper than Qatar airways my airline of choice
I am somewhat dubious of these companies and cant help but feel there's something dodgy? would be interested in hearing of anyone else's experiences in booking business class fares
I'm a silver privilege club member with Qatar and recently received a 10% discount off my next flight so could anyone tell me if Qatar would honour the 10% if I book business? (I'm usually an economy flyer with them )
Am I better off booking direct or perhaps using Trip.com, webjet etc?
