I reserved a ticket with them over 2 months ago (Round Trip) and somehow they managed not to book my return flight date. At the time, I told her to reserve my flight for returning after 1 week (27th) and I might change the date to a later date if it's available. Instead, she just neglected to reserve anything.

They couldn't give me a price for the ticket back then, and told me to come back after Dec. 1st. Apparently either they or the airlines want to wait to see how much they can gouge you before issuing prices. Now I went back to check the price, and the ticket shows no return flight. Of course no return flights are available now, and it so overbooked they have locked the waiting list for the days I want to return.

It's not worth it to me to return from the states just 5 days after I get there (the only available flight).

Avoid them. IEMAN travels. They are recently re-located at the base of Hooker Hill, in that LG phone card shop.

Now I am not going home for Christmas.

Didn't know how else to describe the place.

They are sort of across the street from Geckos, and just 1 shop up from the corner. Technically, the hill is further up a block, but it's on the same street.

Lots of foriegners buy phone cards there.
