“MyTicketsToIndia and insane AGENT FEEs: A Love Story ”

written by ShreyasP on 07/02/2020

Did a booking with them and after a few weeks had to reschedule my flight due to personal reasons.
******My original booking*******
Flight operator: Virgin Atlantic and Delta
Actual ticket charge to the airline: $1484
Agent fee to these people: $305
********My rescheduled flight*********
Actual rescheduling cost to the airline: $666.37
Agent fee to these guys: $437.63

The catch is, these guys won't tell you this split-up, they'll just tell you the total amount (and let you assume that, this is what the airline's actually charging people). You get to know about the transaction when it gets reflected in your bank statement. After my initial booking, I realized I had been robbed of 305$ in plain daylight. That's why, during rescheduling, I didn't go through them, I contacted the airline directly but was told if I had done my initial booking through an agent, the rescheduling has to happen through them only. I had no choice hence. Guess what, I lost my 305 + 437.63 = 742.63$ merely as an agent fee to these people. Ok ! sure you are running an agency but this is a crazy sum to charge someone that too without any upfront information of the split-up on call. 

My friend suggested me to go through these guys and I was stupid af to have complied. I am totally not recommending these guys to anyone.

Better way is to either refer to a friend who has ample of experience in booking international flights or just do it yourself. What's the point of spending 500$+ charge merely as an agent fee. Totally ridiculous ! I fervently wish, you guys just shut down for the good of mankind !
