Lying con artists

I called them thinking they were Singapore airlines and they said they were then when I got the ticket it said it was $78 to tansfer my tickets but the fees and services were $1350 CAD and when I queried them about it they threatened to cancel my ticket and charge me fees. Delt with Shaun, Absolutely disgusting. I hope their kids get hit by a bus.

Terrible Place

The only reason there is one star is because I couldn't write a review unless I rated this Terrible company. The rudeness of the people I have ever dealt with!!!! Trying to get my money back from a ticket I purchased and they have no record of it. I was on the phone for two and a half days and still nothing. I would NEVER recommend this place to anyone !!! I have contacted the BBB and the Attorney General Office. Hopefully they will take care of my problem and This Horrible Company !!!

The worst and rudest customer service…

The worst and rudest customer service ever. I called them several times in two weeks to cancel my ticket. The first time they told me the ticket should cancel through the airline, after contacting the airline, they told me I bought a ticket from this agency and this branch of GTT is responsible for canceling my ticket. Each time I called them, they gave me a new phone number as a number that is responsible for canceling my ticket (during two weeks they gave me more than 15 phone numbers and the interesting thing is that none of them were repeated and answered). When I asked for the reason they shouted at me 🤐 The funniest part is that I called the GTT office in the Seattle and they help me to cancel my ticket less than 15 minutes.

Excellent Wholesale with Amazing Auto Ticketing System

As a travel agency that's been working with GTT for over 16 years. GTT Global Team is by far one of the most efficient and helpful group in this industry. Continuously updating us on the most recent news and promotions. As well as, always willing to help out when we need. For example, if we have concerns on the terms and/or conditions, while our designated agent is not able to respond another team member is always available and willing to help. My favorite part of this new system is the auto ticketing, which is available during after hours. This new system makes our work much easier and more convenient with its 24/7 access. Absolutely love using it!!!

As a sub-agent I've been dealing business with GTT San Diego for 16 years.All staff are very helpful and knowledgeable and with 24 hours round the clock is so awesome! Fares offered are very competitive. GTT Global is vey helpful in finding the best fares we can offer. Its highly recommended.

GTT is the best ticket consolidator…

GTT is the best ticket consolidator that I have ever worked with. I've been in the dive travel business for nearly 25 years and working with GTT for the past 5 or so of those years. We have access to their portal which allows you to search fares, see the best flight options or even issue a ticket. We do a lot of group travel and they rates are either at or below published fares. And their in-house support staff is beyond accommodating to whatever situation we might have. Their knowledge of the different markets and best fares and their ability to find a good schedule and fare quickly is amazing. I absolutely love working with them.

Highly Recommend for travel agents

Highly Recommend for travel agents! Great staff, 24/7 support. Fast response. Friendly user website. We love the auto ticketing function where we can issue our tickets anytime, anywhere.

Gtt is by far the best consolidator I dealt with so far. Very knowledgeable staff and reliable with getting me the lowest price on the best premium airlines. I also love that GTT has a call center after hours and weekends which makes it so convenient.

Wonderful Apps for the auto-ticketing…

Wonderful Apps for the auto-ticketing feature ! Especially using after normal office hour. And the price-checking feature is awesome as well – there are bulk fare & commission price for ARC fare, it’s easier to do the price comparison. It’s Highly recommended to all sub agencies.

Highly recommended

Highly recommended! It’s best company for travel agent to work with. Especially working with MSP branch staffs, I can’t ask for more. They have provided the best service ever. Whenever I ask for something, they give the answer right away with very good manner. Professional and helpful staffs make you feel so satisfied with the service you pay for.

BEST WEBSITE AND CONSOLIDATOR FOR TRAVEL AGENCY

I have been with GTT since 2013. When I was first frustrated with starting my business, Tien in San Diego office has helped me from scratch, and have been very supportive since then. She always tries to think for sub-agent, and constantly asks for anything we might need to increase our sales. Also, all staffs in San Diego office are very helpful, supportive. For the website, they constantly update and try to add new products so we can sell more, and you can even sell insurances for extra comm! Also, they have 24 hours support even on weekends, and off hours so if you are workaholic, this is a place.

It's worth it.

I had some doubts when I started the process, but GTT agent walked me through the process. I flew to Germany and back without a serious hiccup. I originally had two pretty good sized layovers, but they continued to look until they could get me a more direct flight. I still had a layover coming back of about 5.5 hours, but it gave me some time to deflate and make some contacts. I will be using them again. Thanks GTT !

Absolutely love this company

Absolutely love this company, they go above and beyond finding me best pricing and are always efficient. Ask for Michelle Men she truly is one of the best travel agents!

THREE MONTHS for reimbursement

It took THREE MONTHS for: Ovago Booking I.D. : O51B345 They contradicted themselves in time and dates. OVAGO is under the umbrella of GTT. From March 13th, 2020; when Elvis Arron wrote that he got full reimbursement from the Airline; to the list of agents mentioned underneath they all promised different times for resolution. They didn't recredited the card instead end up with a check from GTT U.S.A. Gateway Travel. 600 Data Dr., Suite 101, Plano, TX 75075. Dated 6-09-20 and mailed on June 10th, 2020. LOCAL mail To: notificationsjivo-mail.com; Elvis Arron; Kassandra D. ; Dorian A ; exchange ovago.com ; Janice M. ; dora.govago.com ; Marcus E. Sent: Friday, June 12, 2020, 08:55:53 PM CDT Today is Friday June 12, 2020, as of now we have not received any form of payment; not even the promised check. On March 13, 2020 Elvis Arron admitted he got full reimbursement from the airline and requested credit card information ( last four digits, expiration date ). Ever since he began to ignore phone calls and emails; it was then that I wrote my first report on Trustpilot. Next day he responded with an apologetic message that our reimbursement had been processed two days ago and asking to remove the posting. The word check was used as a form of reimbursement. Why do you send a check when is easier to recredit. Personal tantrum ?. By then over a month went by. In the meantime; we got in contact with several agents; reason why your are copied in this message; without any resolution ( because Elvis Arron was the agent single out as the one in charge? ). So all this time is a personal retaliation for the derogatory comments as a result of his unprofessionalism. This message will be copied and paste in Trustpilot, GTT, B.B.B. Trip advisor, Reddit, etc. You think going back to normal business will be smooth? Three months in this horrible ordeal? THREE MONTHS!

Trip Advisor May 22, 2020, 2:30 PM Save Very sad that we use their services to purchase two tickets to Italy in March. Due to the Pandemia and the country lockdown; we had to cancel our trip. We purchased the tickets on November 28th, 2019. Trips were cancelled, and airlines were reimbursing full fare with the exception if you bought it thru and travel agency. Ovago's representative (Elvis Arron) has been deliberately withholding reimbursement even after stating that Ovago got the reimbursement from the airline. As of today: 5-22-2020 we haven't receive any payment. Furthermore, Elvis Arron said that he was going to send a check. So from using a credit card for purchase instead of recrediting, now they are saying: check. Nobody responds to our claim because we've been blocked.

Already planning to see the next solar eclipse in 2026? What travelers need to know.

Umbraphiles feeling the post-eclipse blues should start checking the expiration date on their passports.

The next total solar eclipse is set to happen on Aug. 12, 2026, over Greenland, Iceland, Spain, Russia and a small part of Portugal, according to NASA . 

In North America, only a partial eclipse will be visible, so if April’s event made you an eclipse chaser and you want to see totality, you’ll need to head overseas.

Start the day smarter. Get all the news you need in your inbox each morning.

Here’s what you’ll need to know before packing your bags:

Do you need a passport or visa for the best destination?

The path of totality for the 2026 eclipse mostly goes through places Americans can travel visa-free with their passport, so long as they’re planning to stay for less than 90 days.

Spain, Portugal, Iceland and Greenland all allow visa-free tourist travel for U.S. passport holders.

Spain, Portugal and Iceland are also members of the Schengen Area, which allows for visa-free travel in much of Europe, meaning if you decide to make a multi-country trip out of your eclipse adventure, you won’t need to clear customs if you’re coming from much of the rest of Europe, either.

One major change for travelers to Europe from the U.S., however, is that electronic preauthorization will become a requirement beginning in mid-2025. The European Travel Information and Authorization System (ETIAS) requirement will apply to all four open countries in the path of totality. 

Depending on the state of the Ukraine war, travel to Russia may or may not be an option for most Americans by 2026, so it’s unclear what the paperwork requirements will be by then.

Is it better to see it from the beach?

Beaches can be a great place to see the eclipse because there are few natural obstacles blocking observers’ views of the sky. The 2026 path of totality passes over beaches on Spain’s northern and southeastern coasts, as well as over islands in the Mediterranean Sea including Mallorca, Menorca and Ibiza. The eclipse will also pass over coastal areas in Greenland and Iceland, according to the National Solar Observatory . 

Cruising Altitude: What it was like to see the eclipse from a plane

Will there be eclipse cruises or flights?

Almost certainly, although most operators have not announced specific plans yet. 

Cruise lines will also offer more viewing opportunities. Princess Cruises “has created a bespoke itinerary aboard Sky Princess to position the ship near Spain on that date,” according to a spokesperson for the line. The cruise will open for bookings on Princess’s website on May 23.

Cunard Line has sailings on its Queen Mary 2 , Queen Victoria and Queen Anne vessels that will put passengers in prime spots to watch .

'The ship can move': Why you should watch next solar eclipses from a cruise ship

Holland America Line is also planning multiple sailings around the event, though details are still to be announced. “Guests have reacted positively to our 2024 eclipse cruises and with the next full eclipse in 2026 we plan to have three sailings in Europe that will align with the path of the eclipse,” Paul Grigsby, the line's vice president of Deployment & Itinerary Planning, previously told USA TODAY in an email.
