Don't book with these guys. The purpose of an intermediary is to improve the customer experience. Opdo has made my experience several times worse. And the "Prime" moniker? Prime mug!
I had a flight cancelled last Friday. After receiving a text and email from Lufthansa notifying me of the cancellation 3 hours before I was due to leave, I immediately called Opodo. Opodo explained that their system stated that the flight hadn't been cancelled and offered to book me on to the flight. THey were unable to (because it had been cancelled) and suggested I call the airline. After continuously getting an engaged tone with the UK's Lufhansa office, I called the head office in Germany - I was 75th in the queue. I then called the Irish office, who confirmed that the flight had been cancelled. After 2 separate calls Lufthansa (in Ireland) was able to check me out of the flight and offered me an alternative leaving 2 days later. I explained that this represented nealy 50% of the holiday and wasn't acceptable. Lufhansa referred me back to opodo - who once again tolds me that the flight wasn't cancelled. I invited Opodo to book me (and my wife and 4 children on to the flight). They couldn't because - guess what - it was cancelled! I asked them to provide me with a refund and they said that they would investigate and get back to me by email. I got an email 24 hours later explaining that I was ineligible for a refund because the flight went ahead as scheduled. Triple checking, I logged on to the Lufthansa website to confirm, once again that the flight had been cancelled.
I have spent the last week trying to get a refund. Opdo is still insisting that the flight went ahead as schedukled despite providing a screenshot from the Lufthansa website with a big cancelled banner against the flight - together with the email that Lufthansa sent.
The thing is that Lufthansa were awful. But Opdo has made the experience considerably more stressful. I will never book with Opodo again!
