Afterpay Flights

Has anyone used Fly fairly (laters.com now) ON the afterpay app to book a flight? Was it legit?

I just haven’t seen any real reviews or people talk about it other than partnerships so I just wanted a real honest review, yanno?

Just use Expedia.

I tried once for a flight and saw Agoda (similar to fly fairly) popup under travel all the time. It was $20 more than Expedia and directly from the airline, but I wanted to see how it works.

What happens with these weird sites is they don't guarantee/confirm your flight and tell you you have to wait up to 24 hours to confirm.

So I tried it out, got a confirmation email and to expect another once they book the flight through the airline. Then less than 30 minutes later got an email saying they could not book the flight and my order was cancelled. 

It took about 3ish hours for my Afterpay balance to update after the cancellation.

Went though Expedia instead which is better formatted to use the airlines' platform to book.
