Customer ReviewsforRocket Travel, Inc.

This company is a complete fraud. I booked through them for a trip to **. The resort we booked had a mishap our first night and we could not stay there. The resort called Rocket Travel to initiate a refund for the night and Rocket Travel did not process it. I called a week later and they lied to me and told me the resort changed their mind. Not true, I confirmed with the resort that they never contacted them. We are both getting the run around. SCAM COMPANY!!!

Hello *****,Thank you so much for your valuable time and kind patience. We are happy to assist you and have been diligently working on your previous request.We offer our deepest apologies for the hotel's inability to provide you with the correct accommodation on the first night. We escalated this situation with both the hotel and our central reservation office. The hotel mentioned they attempted to contact our central reservation office to release a refund for you. However, our central reservation office explained that they need written confirmation from the hotel before proceeding with any refund.We have successfully obtained a written confirmation from the hotel, and we are pleased to inform you that the hotel has authorized a refund to cover the inconvenience of not having the correct accommodation for the first night as well as compensation for the overall inconvenience experienced during check-in.We sincerely apologize for the delay in resolving this matter. We hope this information clarifies the situation. We remain at your disposal for any further queries you may have.Kind regards,***************************** Customer Loyalty Manager ******************** Concierge ************** ************* ************** (International)

Rocket travel refuses to honor 1000 mile 1st booking bonus. Go elsewhere. Customer service terrible. Losing customers for what amounts to $10 bonus. Short sided thinking.

Hello ****,I'm sorry to hear that you didn't receive the ***** bonus miles.Our tech department has confirmed that while you did use the correct link for the promotion, the hotel you selected was not one of the participating properties. As a result, we are unable to award the miles for this promo. However, as a gesture of goodwill, we can offer you a Travel Credit, as mentioned in the email we sent to you directly.Please let me know if you have any other questions.Kind regards,************************* Customer Loyalty Manager

Avoid at all costs. Was told by customer service that they could waive the cancellation/refund policy and issue a refund but then they proceeded to run me around, insinuate the hotel manager was the reason for the delay, then not respond to follow up emails for almost 2 weeks. Only to turn around and go back on what they said. I attempted to get what the representative said in writing so I would have recourse, but they never sent it. There is good reason why this company has an F rating. Reps/phone operators are not based in the states, and thus unable to communicate in a timely manner with hotel/airline/whoever you need. When it comes to travel, time is literally the most important factor. This company was incapable of doing that on several occasions in my case. Do not book through this company. Even if your banking institution/airline offers rewards to book through them. As a consumer, you trust that major companies would associate with better businesses, but that is obviously not the case. Wish there was a way to warn people before they book so they don't have to learn the hard way like me and hundreds of others.

Hello *****,Thank you so much for your valuable time. We are glad to assist you and appreciate your feedback, as it helps us to improve.We have initiated a thorough investigation into all circumstances involved in this situation and are currently negotiating a refund with the hotel. We understand your flight was delayed, and you require a refund. Please allow us ***** business hours to work on this request. While we cannot guarantee a refund at this stage since it needs to be approved by the hotel, we assure you that we will work diligently to achieve the best resolution for you.We will contact you via email as soon as we receive a response from the hotel with a final resolution. Thank you for your patience as we conduct our investigation.Kind regards,***************************** Customer Loyalty Manager ******************** Concierge ************** *************************** (International)

I am writing to file a formal complaint against Rocket Travel, Inc. By Agoda DBA. AAdvantage Hotels regarding their refusal to issue a refund for my reservation despite receiving prior approval from the hotel.On May 19th, 2024, I made a reservation at ****************************** through Rocket Travel, Inc. By Agoda DBA. AAdvantage Hotels for 5 nights. Unfortunately, due to my baby daughter's medical situation, we had to shorten our stay and requested a refund for the remaining nights. I promptly received approval from the hotel staff on duty to process the refund.However, upon contacting Rocket Travel, Inc. By Agoda DBA. AAdvantage Hotels' reservation department, I was informed that they could not approve the refund due to system limitations, despite acknowledging the hotel's approval. I have since made multiple attempts to resolve this issue directly with Rocket Travel, Inc. By Agoda DBA. AAdvantage Hotels, but they have consistently denied my request without providing a satisfactory explanation.The reservation was made under a refundable booking policy before May 28th, which I contacted Rocket Travel morning on May 29th. However, given the circumstances and the prior approval from the hotel itself, I believe Rocket Travel, Inc. By Agoda DBA. AAdvantage Hotels' decision not to honor their own approval is unfair and unjust.I have attempted to resolve this matter amicably with Rocket Travel, Inc. By Agoda DBA. AAdvantage Hotels through email communication, but they have not been responsive to my concerns.

Please understand that we can only process refunds upon receipt of funds, regardless of assurances made by the hotel.We understand how frustrating this situation must be for you, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused. If there's anything else we can assist you with, please don't hesitate to let us know.Warm regards,************************* Customer Loyalty Manager

AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!! Booked travel and hotel on American Airlines aa.com (through them!) My flight was cancelled and American was unable to get me to ********* on my day of travel. The hotel i booked through aa.com charged me for the night, so i am trying to request a refund, as American was unable to get me there, and i had booked through them. Called 3 different numbers, no one could help me, until i finally got to RocketTravel (why Rocket it i booked on aa.com???). Totally unhelpful and could offer no assistance, asked to speak to a supervisor at which point they hung up on me. Totally unacceptable!

Hello ****,Thank you for bringing this situation to our attention.I attempted to locate the reservation in question, but I was unable to find it with the email you provided. Could you please reply with the confirmation number so we can check if we can assist you or provide further instructions?Have a lovely day.Regards, ************************* Customer Loyalty Manager

After receiving a promotional email from American Airlines, I booked a hotel room via what I believed was AAdvantage Hotels. The confirmation email was cobranded as AAdvantage Hotels and Rocket Travel, Inc. I then received a reservation reminder email from booking.com AFTER the cancellation window. I called AAdvantage Hotels to cancel and I was sent on a wild goose chase from AAdvantage Hotels (which I believe is dba Rocket Travel but bills under RTI Hotels), Booking.com and the actual ***********. Each entity said that I had to cancel it via Booking.com. However, to cancel a reservation via Booking.com you need a pin number, which I was never given nor did the reservation ever appear in my upcoming Booking.com stays. I believe these companies engage in deliberately misleading and confusion practices to cause the consumer to give up out of frustration. Only after hours of phone calls and emails (and the mercy of the ***********) was I able to have my room reservation cancelled. I have learned my ****** and strongly recommend against using these companies to avoid this trap. Shame on American Airlines for endorsing a company that engages in such predatory deceptive practices.PS - I was forced to give one star but would give zero if it were an option.

Hi ******,I hope this message finds you well.I'm sorry to hear about your recent experience.Upon reviewing your reservations, I see that you made two bookings on our website in June 2023. You successfully canceled one of them in July 2023. However, the second reservation was requested to be canceled on June 3, 2024, after the cancellation window had closed and it became nonrefundable.As the reservation had become nonrefundable, we initiated the process to obtain approval for a refund from the hotel. Please note that we do have a fee for canceling nonrefundable reservations. After obtaining approval from the hotel, we processed the refund for the reservation, deducting the cancellation fee accordingly.We understand that this may not be the desired outcome, but unfortunately, the reservation had already passed the refundable period when the cancellation was requested.If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out.Warm regards,************************* Customer Loyalty Manager ******************** Concierge ************** ************* ************** (International)

I booked a non-refundable hotel in *************** for last week; we had stayed at this hotel previously last year and loved it so decided to go back but booked through AAadvantage for the miles! We were taking our son with us this time, so booked a 2 bedrm/2 bath suite for extra space, this was 646 sq ft.Upon arrival, we were given a studio room with 3 beds & 1 bath, 323 sq ft as according to the information the hotel received from AA this was what we had booked.I emailed AA/Rocket Travel & received no response. I then called and explained my issue, requesting a refund of the price differential between the 2 rooms. They responded via email saying we had in fact received a room upgrade so there would be no refund! I am mystified as to how they came to this conclusion; when I sent them photos of the suite I booked & what room we were actually in??? Clearly a 2 bed room suite with 2 baths is very different from a studio room half the size!This is misrepresentation of the rooms!As of now I am waiting for a supervisor to call me..........I would not advise anyone to use Rocket Travel as it seems like a bait & switch scheme with no concern for customers or their welfare! I would leave zero stars if possible!

I booked a hotel via Rocket Travel through the AAdvantage website for stay that ended 04/18/2024. As a Platinum Pro member and being on the aa.com website I assume it would be legit. Reservation was for three nights at ******************** in ******** for $753. Ended up being billed $1007. To date Rocket Travel has not responded to my inquiries. I am have also checking with the hotel and they have not responded also. They website also said 10X AAdvantage which has been posted either.
