Updated below original review:This company is not aer lingus
This company is not aer lingus. After a booking made for flight, car and b and b we realized within 10 minutes that we had included the car and b and b for 10 days not 6. The flight we wanted to keep for 10 days. I immediately called, and e-mailed. Everything was closed for the "holiday". I finally got hold of an aer lingus operator who told me that they could only address the actual flight. She gave me a number to reach the "store". Message machine full. No response from e-mail. Today I received an e-mail saying that the vouchers had been issued and I could call (yet another number) with any questions. The operator told me as rudely as possible that there would be no refund. I could return the car and not use three vouchers but no refund as I had not met the 24 hour limit. When I explained that I had been unable to reach anyone, she told me that that was untrue!!! Basically, she called me a liar!! I am stunned. I sent another e-mail asking for help, but I am not expecting much. This is not what I expected after seeing the Aer Lingus name. Update Upon reaching the company through the above mentioned e-mail, I received a very prompt and polite reply. They were able to make the changes that we requested/needed. I have used the company before and had good results. If the vacation you want fits their specific offer, they are very trustworthy. I do, however, have to repeat that they are not Aer Lingus, and your vacation is not really open to the changes that you might usually expect to be able to make (even choosing seats on the plane). I am changing my rating from 1 star to 4 with the caveat that users should be absolutely sure of what they are booking.

Virginia: We are disappointed to receive such a low review rating. The Aer Lingus Vacation Store provides vacation packages for Aer Lingus Airlines' clients. When you are on the Aer Lingus Airlines website and click on 'Book' -> 'Vacation Store' you are automatically brought to the Aer Lingus Vacation Store website to browse vacation packages. As you know we have addressed your concerns and made an exception to modify your booking as our vacation packages are fixed/not customizable. In regards to the number you used to try to reach us please reach out to us and let us know what number that is because our toll free number does not have an answering service to leave a message. In regards to your call with our customer service agent, we will review the call and use this as a trainable moment. Regards: Aer Lingus Vacation Store
