Since we lived in Buffalo, NY, we had purchased the Groupon with the flights departing and returning to Newark, NJ with the plan to either buy cheap flights or drive down. From there it works like any other travel agency experience: they then take your information and book your trip (flights, hotel, etc). For local businesses such as restaurants and spas you go there and either show them the certificate on your phone or print out a copy to give them.įor the travel deals, you have to call the travel agency to book your trip and provide them with the code so they know you’ve already paid for the trip. This is your certificate with a code that will show the company that you’ve purchased this deal through Groupon. How it WorksĪs with most any deal you buy through Groupon, you make your purchase through their site and receive a ‘Groupon’ voucher. Hmm… Now I was intrigued and sent the deal to my husband to see if he was interested since there were dates available for his birthday. Nope, it was a legitimate travel agency with decent reviews online.
I then ran a search on the travel agency, Gate 1 Travel, to see if this was some scam site.
Flights alone bought independently were priced about the same as the Groupon deal that also included the hotel room.īeing a skeptic at heart, I did a little google research on the hotel that was listed only to find that it was actually a decent hotel. I started searching flights for that timeframe thinking maybe there were just some cheap flights available, but no. Last fall I was cruising through the Groupon Getaways to see what was available and saw trips to Rome, Italy for the spring that included the flights and hotel room for a great deal.
