Melbourne to chiang mai in…very bad experiencie Melbourne to chiang mai in despegar.com, as always, and buy everything including the scales with the Qantas airline, in my second stop, in Bangkok, they changed me to a plane of a national airline, it was a very bad experience, it looked like model aircraft, old, without a good maintenance. And for preferring Qantas pay a lot more!!!

INCOMPETENT FOOLS Incompetent fools. I purchased a ticket with the special price for seniors/disabled. Ok, so upon purchase the pop up requires you to send documentation within 3 hours. (send either gov. ID (Cédula), gov. Disabled ID, or Passport if foreigner) I sent my gov. issued ID 10 minutes after purchase. The next day, a young lady called and sent an e-mail requesting documentation. I re-sent the cédula. Then, an e-mail came requesting documentation for someone other than me. I responded that this must be an error. Even later, the same young lady called, and even recognized my voice, which flustered her, and she continued to ask that I send my ID. (which I did....for the 3rd time). The next day, I received an e-mail stating that the reservation was not made due to lack of documentation. ok, I get it, Despegar. com is incompetent...I will purchase the ticket elsewhere, and never return.

There is always room to improvement. There is always room to improvement. Probably more options in destination. More offers in the price. Maybe at certain time and day that you just know to have very special price in the airfare. Other than that I always had a pleasant experience when I buy in Despegar.

Hard to contact The only email I received is this one asking me to evaluate them. Not only I didn't get a confirmation after paying US$2300, it's hard to reach the company: US number is busy (huh?), Argentine number requires a reservation number (how should I have it?). It's definitely not a scam website, but if something goes wrong, you're on your own. Reservaction number could be 668512091500 (from URL history)

Worst Flight Platform Impossible to change a flight through them. Impossible to speak to someone that does not answer like a robot. They couldn't change my flight because their platform wasn't working for a whole day. It literally couldn't receive online payments at the time and they had no other way for me to pay. In the end I couldn't take my flight and even as it was their fault I couldn't make the change they never offered me anything as a compensation.
