What do customers say?

When TUI's team answers, they deliver: reviewers praise Syafiq and others for patience through complex bookings, fast rescheduling, and calm support when flights shift. The catch is reaching them. Recent complaints show weeks without email replies, no booking vouchers sent before departure, and phone lines that only take messages. Past positive reviews show phone contact worked smoothly; current ones reveal a service breakdown where payment is instant but follow-up disappears.

Prices and package combinations vary, but several reviewers flagged hidden markups (one paid 10% more for stopover hotel and transfers compared to booking separately) and international transaction fees that weren't disclosed upfront. The gap between five-star historical reviews and one-star recent ones suggests a shift toward poor communication and unmet commitments.

Recent shift: Recent reviews (past three months) show a sharp turn toward communication failures: unconfirmed bookings, ignored emails for weeks, and unresponsive phone lines. Older reviews (6-12 months ago) praised quick resolutions and easy phone contact. The business appears to have experienced a customer service breakdown.

Praised for
  • responsive phone service when reachable
  • staff support during booking complications
  • quick resolution when engaged
  • helpful re-routing assistance
Watch-outs
  • unresponsive to emails for weeks or months

Best for: Experienced travelers comfortable booking direct airline stopover deals if you can reach support by phone.
Think twice if: Recent reviews report no reply to emails for months and unconfirmed bookings near travel dates. Call early and often; verify confirmations independently with the airline.

What stands out?

  • Named staff go the extra mile on complex bookings
  • Handle flight disruptions and rescheduling quickly when contacted
  • Phone support historically responsive
  • Modest fees to modify reservations

Worth knowing

  • Syafiq named for exceptional support on complex bookings
  • Hidden international transaction fees charged on credit cards
  • Stopover package markups compared to separate airline and hotel bookings
  • Automated phone system does not answer live calls in recent complaints
