    I purchased roundtrip plane tickets from *** to *** in ********** (Booking Reference No: *******), but I did not see an option to include a carry-on or checked bag during the booking process. Obviously, it is quite challenging to pack for a one-week international trip without at least a carry-on or checked bag, so I sent them an email on February 11 requesting instructions on how I can add baggage to my reservation and details of the associated costs. Weeks have gone by with no answer at all. The situation is even worse because I bought other internal flights in ********** with carry-ons included and right now I dont know how to plan for my trip because I cant contact them about adding luggage.

    Thought I was calling *************** to book and instead got this travel agency, he answered reservations, so I proceeded to tell him what I wanted, he said he would be charging me two different amounts, $419.96, which *************** received for two round trip tickets and taxes and $359.84 which Spirit received $158.00 for 1 checked baggage for round trip. They have kept $201.84. *************** have sent me my confirmation for my flight and baggage for the total of $577.96 . That means the travel agency kept money for a fee and they say they dont charge a fee, but they wont tell me where the remaining amount of $201,84. When I called the wrong number originally I spoke to **** and he did not tell me he was a ************** Once I found out that this was not *************** directly, I called *************** and the Guest Relations are looking into this.

    Dear *****,

    Thank you for discussing your concerns with us. We regret that you experienced dissatisfaction.

    We wish to confirm that we have looked into your complaint, re-checked the details of your booking and observed that the flights booked for you initially were from *** - ******* to *** - ********* with two connecting points in *** - ********* and *** - *********. For this flight you were charged **$ ****** and the same has been refunded to you directly via the airline.

    You were then booked from *** - *********** to *** - ********* with two connecting points in *** - ********* and *** - *********. This booking had a charge for your flights and a charge of **$ ****** which were for the pet fee and taxes. These requests when sent to both the airlines in your booking (American Airlines and ********) were rejected and they demanded the payment to be made at the airport. Hence, this amount of US$ ****** has also been refunded to you in two reversed transactions of US$ ****** (Transaction ID : **********, Authorization Code : ******) and US$ ***** (Transaction ID : **********, Authorization Code : 005638)

    We hope that the information provided clarifies any ambiguity and suffices the purpose of eliminating the distrust. Still in case of any further query you may have, please feel free to contact me directly within the available time. Alternatively, you may contact our customer support team for Spanish @ *************** and for English @ *************** or write to us at ********************************** anytime.

    We thank you again for taking the time to notify us about the concerns you had.
