Hi all,
Wanted to post a question myself, but couldn't find a relevent BB for this, so creating a new thread. Do ask, post, discuss about travel agent related info, like reliable travel agent in specific cities, deals they offer, your past experiences etc.

Punyat ek HARSHAL TRAVELS nawachi company ahe near Alka Talkies on Tilak Rd. This company is not at all trust worthy. I personally had a very very bad experience with the company. My relative also had a same bad experience with him. He will advertise the foreign Air tickets with huge discounts. He takes the money in adavnce, but will not issue tickets till the last day . He will not even issue itinerary in advnace. The tickets will be confirmed only half way, say from Mumbai to London and then London to US the tickets are not confirmed. He issues tickets from student quota, so when you go to airport the check in people will ask you to show you student ID card etc or else they will cancel the tickets unless you pay the difference in price of full fare ticket.

SO in all a very bad experience, I even heard that people came back to pune from Mumbai airport, as the tickets are not confirmed. SO better be careful.

There are many companies. A subsidiary or AIG does that too. Best is to go on Web look for "visitor health insurance". It does not matter what coast it is.
It should cost about 95$ a month with 500 deductable for $50000. The rate list is published. And you can start as soon as they get your Credit Card No.

Last Monday, I was supposed to travel to Bombay which I could not as my 2 year old daughter had high fever. So I had to cancel my ticket on last day. My travel agent told me that my cancellation charges would be $325/ticket.

Yesterday she again called me & told me that it would be $400/ticket. When I protested she told me that at least she was telling me that before hand instead of just charging it to my credit card. This was a nonrefundable ticket and the extra charge could be waived if I travel after 15 of March.

When I bought the ticket I was told that cancellation charges will be $300 which I thought was not bad for 2 tickets. But now I was told that $400 would be charged per ticket. I tried to cancel my ticket on Sunday, one day before travel but airlines told me that I have to do it through the travel agent. I could not reach my travel agent on Sunday as their office was closed on Sunday. but as per their regulations I notified them 4 hours before travel time.
For last 6 years I always clarified the cancellation charges, never bought a nonrefundable ticket. One time I made a mistake and boom.

I find this very unethical on part of travel agency. I think there should be a rule that travel agents have to state their cancellation charges in written even in case of e-ticket. I think though I notified them before 4 hours, they charging me 50% penalty is too much.

This is to let everyone know that M and K travels has cheated more than 100 people (mainly indians). The owner of this company is a fraud.

He takes money, does not get a ticket nor does he refund money. And if at all he refunds, he will deduct 200 dollars as fine for cancellation.

It is always helpful to share the information, but it will be great if we write our own experiences. If you look at the people who made those posts, they even didn't bother to register at that website.

This may or may not be a case here, but it is not uncommon for some companies getting into unethical practices and smear the names of their competition.

I have extremely postive experience with K.M.TRAVELS (and NOT the M K travels mentioned in the other post).

We have booked twice last year as well as this year. I dealt with Gopal and he not only spent considerable amount of time searching for different combination but followed up promptly. I had to make an urgent purchase due to family emergency this year and he even sent ticket immediately without even receiving cheque for it.

K.M.TRAVELS
353 SOUTH MAIN STREET
WEST HARTFORD, CT 06107
TEL: (860)561-9709 & (860)521-2781
FAX: (860)371-3357
WEB:
www.kmtravels.com

One caution (which you should do for any travel agent) is send cheque writing "with deposit only". In my case since I travelled first and then sent my money later there was some confusion whether they received cheque. But finally it was all sorted out and they found my cheque.

I am no way related to this firm and just want to note a very positive experience as a customer.
