Pattern of Complaints

BBB files indicate a pattern of complaints concerning airline travel purchases made through Pearl Travel USA, Inc. Consumers are telling BBB that they have paid for international airline tickets from this company and receive a confirmation email after the purchase. However, when consumers later contact the airline they think they are flying with to check their ticket information, many say they are told that their tickets were cancelled by the travel agent. These consumers were reportedly never made aware of the cancellation. Many consumers complain about the difficulty in reaching this company, and when some consumers are able to get in touch with the owner of Pearl Travel to discuss the status of their tickets or request a refund, they claim they are given the run around. A few consumers that say they have received a refund check allege that the check has bounced due to the owner stopping payment on the check.


On September 9, 2015, BBB requested Pearl Travel USA's voluntary cooperation in eliminating the identified pattern of customer complaints. As of October 20, 2015, the business has not responded to BBB's communications and failed to specify what actions the company will take to alleviate the underlying issues in the pattern of complaints.

BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
