Advantages: Find what you want easily and fast
Disadvantages: You can miss out on the good deal just as fast

...Well, I have discovered that ebookers has a page that helps you track down them cheap flight. It is the special's offers page (http://www.ebookers.com/travelagent/specialoffers/specials/) Here they list all the cheapest flights to top destination but also include when the deal is available. e.g. On the page now we have a flight to Boston from London with Iceland air and we can see that you must fly by the 31 March 2001 for £202 but you must book by ...

Advantages: Easy to use, Speed of conmirmation, Pricing
Disadvantages: Webpage Design could be better

...I have found a bargain. The Ebookers homepage is very cluttered and could on first glances seems really difficult to find what you want but is not. There are 6 sections flights, cars, hotels, insurance, holidays and cruises to choose from each section gives a different way of find your particular needs. For those of you who have never used Ebookers booking a holiday has never been easy. There is a 7-stage booking progress bar, which shows you where ... Read review

Advantages: Good choice of services, good customer service
Disadvantages: Poor layout

...for a good price, and ebookers were the only site I found who were able to do it. Customer service Unusually for an online shopping site, a customer service phone number is clearly displayed at all times. This is a breath of fresh air, very welcome, and it actually puts you through to a human. Prices Similar pricing to other last minute travel sites. The real draw here is when you need to get flights fast, and ebookers does this at competitive, ... Read review

Advantages: Choice.
Disadvantages: My mother in law is coming to stay.

...I can draw is that ebookers is well used and that Brittany Ferries gives them discounts. Even allowing for discounts, and having searched all the available ferry lines including the Condor crossing which is a four hour crossing, the travel arrangements were getting difficult to say the least. How do you transport a lady of 84 from Manchester down to a Ferry Port or airport, over to France and then back again, bearing in mind bedtimes, limited capability ... Read review

Advantages: great price, ease of use, friendly and helpful
Disadvantages: sometimes slow to deliver

I have used Flighbookers (aka Ebookers) quite a lot. I have always been more than satisfied with the service and the price. I have done quite extensive research and have not been able to beat any of the prices that I have been given from flightbookers. The one downfall that I have found is that during the busier seasons they can get behind in sending tickets out leading the more nervous person (such as me) to chase them down by phoning the office. ...

Advantages: always gave full info, best prices too
Disadvantages: none

...a waste of time. Consistently ebookers came up with availability, price details of the flight times, connections etc. I fdound it a very efficient site and when I book my next internet flights there site will be the first i will look at ... Read review

Advantages: City breaks section is good
Disadvantages: Waiting time, takes too long, not big on value

...will say is valuable about ebookers is their city breaks section which will organise a 2 night or 3 night stay in a major European city, starting at about 200 pounds. This is particularly good when places start getting booked up and you are trying to coordinate a flight with finding accomodation. Not such an easy feat when you aren't sure where the city centre is, etc and want to be in the centre of the action. I have never used Ebookers for booking ... Read review

Advantages: Very helpful in 1999
Disadvantages: Very unhelpful and inflexible

...from Birmingham via flightbookers or ebookers as they are now called. The service was very helpful and courteous and I believe we obtained a very good price. As a result , I went around promoting them to my family and friends. However , two weeks ago we tried to book another flight only package to Las Vegas , initially from Birmingham but as this was full at the prices quoted , secondly from London Heathrow. The price quoted was in excess ... Read review

Advantages: quick, easy, effective.
Disadvantages: No personal touch.

...flight from Paris to Bristol ebookers made it seem so simple. I searched for the cheapest available flight entered my details and voila! it was all done. No hassle of going into a travel agent and waiting forever to be get a quote. I managed to pick my tickets up from an agency in the centre of Paris and my flight went without any hitches. My only concern would be if you didn't live near or couldn't access one of their agencies to receive the tickts, ... Read review

Advantages:
Disadvantages:

I've used ebookers to book my last holiday and found them to be very efficient and professional. They offered the cheapest fare (by £100) for my holiday and my tickets were delivered very quickly. This fare was cheaper than booking directly with the involved airline. I found the site very easy to navigate. Ebookers also allowed me to book a multi-destination holiday by filling out my preferred itenerary online and having them email me with the ... Read review

Advantages: Nice looking site
Disadvantages: Having to check the availability of every fare is tedious, especially as a lot are not available

...for seats which are available, ebookers returns all fares, and chances are there will not be seats available at the very lowest fares. The only way of finding out whether there is is to check availability on each fare yourself, which is a tedious task given that you will probably go through quite a number of fares until you get to one which is actually bookable, by which time you will have probably gone past the prices others are offering anyway. ...

Advantages: Convenient and cheap
Disadvantages: Not everybody likes booking over the internet

I recently booked European flights via e-bookers. Their internet site was easy to navigate and the flight prices quoted were well below what I normally pay. I believe they are ABTA bonded like most travel agencies but if you are worried or are worried about the internet in general it's always a good idea to book via a credit card as this gives you additional protection. If you live in London you can pick the tickets up in person ( I believe they are ... Read review
