SmartFares Incompetent Booking-Failure to Correct flight Itinerary or Refund Monies San Diego California

Booked a trip for 2 to Lima Peru from Los Angeles for the 22nd of May. The trip was via AeroMexico LAX-MEX-LIM a 2 hr layover in Mexico City.  Received confirmation from Smartfares MMV68Z. When I rechecked a few weeks later at AeroMexico the code was changed to UMKKYL. I was no longer flying direct to Mexico City. I was rerouted via Delta to Atlanta. Worse there was no connecting flight Atlanta to Mexico City for a connection to Lima nor was there a direct flight from Atlanta to Lima.

SmartFares left my wife and me stranded in Atlanta. Called up AeroMexico. AeroMexico said to call Smartfares as they booked the flights. So I called Smartfares. They gave me the run around. Quoted their terms of service and all the many ways they were not responsible. I pointed out that they are not exempt from there own incompetence.

The error was 100% owned by Smartfares. After two exchanges I no longer heard from them. My experience is that SmartFares is at best a sketchy company to do business with and at worst runs away from responsibility for mistakes made that might cost them a $$$.
