For 24 hours now, I’ve been trying to book a flight on Orbitz. Everytime, and I mean everytime (20+), I try to book a flight at their advertised price, it either gives me a message that it cannot confirm my flight, or, more often, that the flight is now 33%-50% more than advertised. This site seems to be nothing more than a bait and switch job!!! Don’t trust them or waste your time. Life is too important than to waste it on this POS site!!!

Had to cancel my resvervations due to a flight cancellation.  Orbitz did this after mulitple phone calls.  he first three phone calls ended up transferring me to a non working number.  After a few hours a called again and finally got a live person - they said they processed a refund - we’ll see.  Then I asked for the booking fee back - this is where it really got frustrating. After an hour and a half of my time and speaking to 4 different people and getting cut off once, and having to repeat my story and personal information 4-5 times, even during the same phone session, I spoke to a supervisor.  I expressed to him my frustration with customer service - politely I might add - and he agreed to refund the lousy 13 dollar booking fee provided I re- booked thru Orbitz.   I decided to rebook thru Orbitz until I saw that the flight offered were 150 more expensive then when I first bookd and approx. 175 more expensive then hotwire flights.  So it was a no brainer and there is no way I’m going to waste any more time ever calling or dealing with Orbitz.  They SUCK - IMHO!
