Anyone buy tickets off of flighthub?

We're looking at airfare, and flying throuhg buffalo is $230 pp. Which is great. But I searched on kayak and got a popup for "flighthub". My same dates, with air canada is $340. I'm thinking for $110 pp it may be worth it not to drive to buffalo.
But before i book has anyone had an experience with them?

i have a bad taste in my mouth from using a similar site and getting hosed (ended up paying a lot more for the flight than advertised, due to fees and service charges -- got it refunded, but it still cost me $50 in non refundable fees, and a lot of stress) and flighthubs reviews stink as well.

tread lightly.

yah just googled reviews. SO not worth the risk. Thanks!!!

This is not really relevant but I too have always been wary of using 3rd party sites like Kayak or Expedia etc...

I used expedia.ca too book a flight (WestJet), hotel and car for a recent trip and I got a better deal for the WHOLE package then I would have gotten for the cost of JUST the flights had I booked them directly with WestJet!

I am home now and there were no hidden fees or costs and everything from the flight to hotel check in and car pick up were seamless!

So yeah these sites can be good but not sure my 1 experience is enough to fully judge all your options.

We used Flighthub in September to fly to Italy via Frankfurt. I used them because we needed to book a layover in Frankfurt on the way back and I couldn't do this on most sites. I had absolutely no problems with them.

I've used flighthub to purchase airfare to mexico, Atlanta, Orlando and new York without any issues. Will definitely use them again.

Ya know, I'm the sort that books with the airline, period. My sister uses Travelocity- never a problem. I know others that use different ones without issue. Still, I just book directly with the airline. I guess I'm a control freak.
