I have made several phone calls to confirm our request and have been handed from one department to another . There appears to be no communication between service areas which leads to frustration and disappointment.

A service above and beyond

We had, let us say, an issue with our holiday( quite a big issue and sought the help of Destination2 with it.
Simone was our point of contact and my wife and I both have to agree she was faultless-she responded promptly and accurately and with all courtesy to our messages and was able in a short time frame to remedy ‘our issue’ with a solution that far exceeded our expectations.
We cannot thank you enough Simone. On our experience we would most strongly recommend using Destination2 to whoever seeks to book a foreign holiday.

Booked a Thailand hotel via Destination2

Booked a Thailand hotel with a lovely lady called Tracy who was an expert on Thailand and Asia generally and was clearly well travelled herself. Really helped validate my choices as well as a great price and service.

Wonderful Nadine

Booked the remaining details of my holiday to Dubai for next year with Nadine. I can’t say enough about how her customer service made me feel. She’s friendly, understanding and totally outstanding ❤️

Shauna, service of exceptional standards

I dealt with Shauna who was extremely helpful as I was booking a group with some difficult requirements. I have about six alternatives from which we managed to create the best we can restricted only by the airlines schedule.
Throughout she handled our enquiry with good humour and a friendly attitude for which I was very grateful, the stress is on both sides! Having finally booked Shauna was not able to take the deposit payment but left it to a colleague. They could learn a lot about customer service! All in all with just that little blip the service again from D2 was exceptional. We have used them before and will use them again. Shauna you are a credit to the company.

Probably the worst company I have ever used
Long story but will cut it short
Wifey and I wedding anniversary looking for nice hotel before we went on cruise from Athens
Booked via phone call was told if I reserved it I could check everything out and get back to them if not happy
Hotel that we was booked into was the art hotel it was a really poor needed work in the rooms and the pool was awful
So I asked if we could swap this was 3 months before we went after they had told us to send them a hotel that we. Could swap it to
Unfortunately when we did what we were asked to do they told us that the hotel was non refundable for the 2 nights prior to the cruise but the night we got back was ok
Don’t understand why tbh but they told me that the hotel would be ok
So we took there word for it and when we got there low and behold it was awful mould on the walls window frame in the room Room rotten bathroom door was awful
We rang destination 2 to let them know and there wasn’t much help
Ended up leaving the room after about 10 mins even the twin beds that was put together were 2 different heights
All I wanted was my money back in the end I tried to claim through my credit card company with no luck
I’ve given up now after sending 30 emails plus
Will never use them again

Hello Andrew, thank you for your feedback.

We sympathise for how this impacted your wedding anniversary and for your experience at the hotel.
We note your feedback in your review and regret any misunderstanding about being able to amend your booking.
As you have chosen to escalate this through your bank, we need to let that established process finish first. This will supersede any offer we previously extended to resolve your complaint.

Holiday stress, we don't need

EDIT

Following on from D2 response below. D2 that was just the sort of noncommittal response I expected based on your responses to other travellers issues below. I can confirm we have spoken with Etihad on numerous occasions to rectify this- they said a communication was sent out on the 9th September confirming ANY changes/ seat pref/ meals etc would have to be made through the third party. Third party suppliers are the ones who have booking access as they have purposely blocked our ability to make changes. Why do you not know about this? Why when we have called you and spoken to different agents have we got a different story? And I would have thought booking a meal for the flight and being able to check in and access our booking is the bare minimum with the money we have paid. Etihad repeatedly say you can do this for us? So which is it? As it's clear that no-one knows what is going on?

We recently booked our first holiday through D2. They were competitive and the process of booking with the agent was easy. However, since paying the full amount, we wanted to select seats on our flight (my partner has had knee surgery so needs an aisle seat) and also food preferences due to allergies and some extra baggage. We have been unable to access our booking via the Etihad website, and we were initially told by D2 that there was an issue with their website. However, several weeks have passed and we are still unable to access our booking. We called Etihad who claimed there is nothing wrong with the website and it is in fact D2 that need to sort our seats etc. D2, claim this is not the case and claim it's the other way around. D2 maintain the website is down. We have received different answers depending on who we have called and at this point in time we're at our whits end and don't know who to believe. We have also been told by Etihad that third party bookings fall on the booking company to sort out our seats et cetera for us due to a policy change, again D2 claim this is not the case. We have been going round and round in circles for a few weeks now- quite frankly it's stress we haven't needed and if there was an option to fully cancel the holiday and get a refund we absolutely would do at this point in time, as D2 are not providing the service we have booked. We just have to turn up to the airport on the day, presumably to not be sitting next to each other, possibly not getting fed on an 11hr flight because of allergies/ dietary preferences, is simply not acceptable. If it is a website issue I cannot believe such a large company would leave customers in limbo for what has been several weeks now. I would really be mindful when booking with D2 I have no faith in them and at this point in time concerned whether we even have flights booked.

EDIT// Thank you for providing your contact information to assist us in locating your booking. Whilst we sympathise with your circumstances and frustration that you have been unable to access your booking via the airline's website, we would clarify that this is indeed an ongoing issue on Etihad's side and not within the control of Destination2. We are continuing to liaise with our contacts to ensure the matter is resolved as soon as possible since such is affecting a number of our customers and we have been assured that the matter is in hand. Furthermore, we would clarify that seat selection is an optional extra and is not included within the package booked with us. Whereas a seat is included and will be provided, the selection of such is an optional extra and therefore does not form a part of the contract between us. Nonetheless, we appreciate your frustrations and hope that any issues are resolved by the airline promptly for you.

Hello njs and thank you for your review. We're sorry to hear you are disappointed and would appreciate your booking reference please to allow us to respond accurately. Thank you.
