    Advantages Advantages Totally user friendly

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None to date

    "Find what you want for less" is the claim laid down by Expedia.co.uk and I'm always up for a challenge. (",) What is Expedia.co.uk (",) Expedia.co.uk is a website used to book holidays, plan your travel, buy your tickets, choose a hotel, incorporate travel insurance and if your very lucky get a great last minute bargain. You essentially become your own travel agent. Expedia.co.uk was launched in 1998 and since this time their website has become of the most used for booking holidays on the internet, giving websites like lastminute.com and Opodo.co.uk a good run for their money.

    5 Stars Booking made easy 16/06/2009
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages It's all so straightforward.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Too much emphasis on Easyjet.

    The last time I travelled by air was in the year 2000, when people generally went to a travel agent's, waited ages until a member of staff was free, and then ages more to get information and have journeys and hotels booked for them. I had no idea just how easy things had become online using sites such as Expedia. I wanted to make a short trip to Europe towards the end of August – just a short one, not having the heart to put my cat in a cattery, and also not having limitless funds. After deliberating over Paris or Brussels by Eurostar, I eventually decided that I would to go and join my son in ... more

    4 Stars Take the Plunge - further update 04/08/2000
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Flexible, easy to use, plenty of info

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not always the cheapest option, Shania Twain

    If you want get information or book a flight fast and with the minimum of hassle, this is the best site I've found so far. I've been using Expedia for quite some time for information purposes, but it's only recently that I actually took the plunge and ordered something from it. EXTENSIVE DATABASE I have found that it's a really good starting point for investigating the cost of flights. The search facilities are comprehensive and relatively simple to use (a few minor quibbles) - you simply plug in Start and end destinations and the dates you require, and the extensive database will go away and ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Cheap Prices, Easy To Use

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None I Can Think Of

    Only this afternoon I asked the good people at Ciao to add Expedia to the site so I could write a lovely review for all you great readers out there and low and behold they have outdone themselves and added it already, so here goes. I will admit I have only used the expedia website on one occasion, but I cannot fault them at all. Their site is so simple to use, you pick whether you want flights, flight & hotel or flights, hotel & car hire all together. It's then as simple as picking your dates, how many adults are going, how many children (including their ages). You pick your departure airport ... more

    5 Stars Expedia your way abroad 26/02/2002
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Easy to navigate, Wide Choice, Good Price Comparisons

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Does not compare No Frills Airline Prices

    I usually book my flights through the normal channels, travel agent etc..... However, I've been hearing a lot of good things about this site called EXPEDIA, who are they I ask myself, so I thought I'd visit before booking my next flight. THE SITE The homepage is very self explanatory with it's main point of cheap flights highlighted by the fact of a simple and clearly laid out quote form so to speak. Simply.. 1. Enter Departure airport / City 2. Enter Destination airport / City 3. Enter Departure / Return Date 4. Hit enter After about 2 to 3 mins the search will return a list of flights ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Could save you a fortune

    Disadvantages Disadvantages none

    Wow the title is a bit of a sweeping statement but then, I don't usually mince my words....in a way it is true that expedia fund my holidays because I save so much cash booking most of my itinerary through them it enables me to fund other aspects of my Holiday.. I first discovered www.Expedia.co.uk a couple of weeks ago, whilst on my continual search on the web for a reliable, dependable honest travel broker who can supply with with most if not all of my travel needs without screwing me to the wall in charges and extras.... For the last three years I have booked all my travel almost exlusively ... more

    5 Stars I've looked, and I haven't found much better 11/02/2001
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Cheap, efficient, quick - just what I want

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not for those who don't know what they want

    Expedia.co.uk. has completely turned around my experience of online ticket booking. Using it has saved me time, money and stress. I was looking for a certain trip, the details of whichcould not be altered, which is where many of the other online booking sites fell flat, and where Expedia impressed me the most. Using other sites I attempted to book the ticket. The online booking company at Freeserve could not provide me with a flight that left on the dates I wanted; lastminute.com was frustratingly expensive, and TravelServe was just poor in terms of booking facilities and customer care. After ... more

    5 Stars Speedy Expedia 27/03/2001
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Hassle free booking by credit card

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not every airline that flies a particular route is available. Seat reservations could be improved.

    I came across Expedia quite by chance in 1999 as a banner advertisement on some website that had nothing whatsoever to do with travel. This serendipitous encounter enabled me to get an excellent deal on a British Airways flight from Heathrow to Boston at a time when I didn't want to use any Air Miles. Since then I've used Expedia on 3 other occasions to buy tickets for the same destination. I find the web site is very easy to use. Expedia prices have no hidden extras, unlike Ebookers where the prices may look lower at first but taxes & charges are added afterwards. I've found there's generally ... more

    5 Stars EXPEDIA - VERY IMPRESSIVE SERVICE - Paris awful! 24/06/2004
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Easy to use web site, good value for money

    Disadvantages Disadvantages No tickets received in post

    Here goes for writing my review of Expedia the on-line tour operater. (This is only my third review so still getting to grips with it all). Anyway, I have recently been to Paris on a 2-night weekend break booked through this tour operator. When we first decided that my partner and I needed a well earned weekend away the easiest and quickest option was to head straight for the internet. we had heard about Expedia but had never booked with them , before. The site was very, very easy to follow and each hotel could be looked at in detail giving several pictures of the hotel, rooms, etc, Also ... more

    5 Stars Cheap flights glaore 22/08/2000
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Very User friendly, cheap flights

    Disadvantages Disadvantages To many people are starting to find out about this site, seats getting snapped up very quickly

    I tried for 3 days to find cheap flights to Nice for Bank Holiday weekend, but I could not find anything less than £350. The so-called flight companies which give offers of £5 a flight were full of hot air. I was beginning to give up when I accidentally came accros expedia.co.uk. The functions on the web site were very user friendly and I successfully inputted my details and what I wanted. I found a flight for £99. The site itself has other functions like maps, travel details, things to do of the area where you flight has been booked. So as well as getting cheap flights you build up your own ... more
