  • - Sought a direct travel number; told it was wrong department and was transferred to a silent sound while booking vacation; will try another company.

I worked hard to find a direct number for travel services only to talk to a person who said it was the wrong department and transferred me to a silent sound.

I was trying to book a long vacation, oh well. I will try another company.

Service agent m, Mikayla, was thorough in checking out options. She even called me back when I accidentally disconnected her-that hardly ever happens!

She was pleasant and gave us credit for the incorrect information we had been given by another travel agent. She did everything she could!

Car rental problems

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Costco Travel has been satisfactory overall.
  • - They can't intervene with Enterprise over a $2000, 3 cm scratch while I dispute the charges.

For the most part, Costco Travel has been satisfactory. In my recent experience, they told me there was nothing they could do to intervene with Enterprise Car rental in a dispute I have with them over damages they claim were done to their car while in my possession.

They want to charge me $2000 for a 3 cm scratch to the side of the car. I am now fighting it out with my credit card company.

This is a legal issue that Costco can’t touch! You need to get a lawyer. It’s unfortunate but legally Costco is not a lawyer and cannot advise on legal matters.

AI Highlights
  • - Costco offers abundant goods in a grand warehouse.
  • - It blends value and quality, from daily needs to indulgent treats.

Costco stands as a grand emporium of abundance, a veritable citadel of commerce wherein the discerning patron is met with a trove of provisions, each offering an opulent testament to both quality and economy. Beneath its vast, cathedral-like ceilings, aisles stretch in august procession, brimming with wares that bespeak both necessity and indulgence in equal measure.

Here, the tenets of frugality and grandeur entwine, for what other establishment proffers both the quotidian and the luxurious with such magnanimous proportions? The air is thick with the scent of fresh harvests and artisanal craftsmanship, as culinary delights stand in resplendent array beside the mechanical marvels of modern convenience. The stewards of this house of plenitude attend with deftness and decorum, ensuring that each guest's passage is marked by ease and enlightenment. Within these walls, the simple act of procurement transforms into an odyssey, each turn revealing new treasures hitherto unconsidered yet instantly indispensable.

The warehouse itself, though imposing in its magnitude, exudes an ineffable warmth, a haven where both the thrifty and the indulgent find common ground.

To depart from its gates, laden with bounty, is to revel in the triumph of commerce at its most refined, an affair not of mere transactions but of sagacious acquisition. Costco is not merely a marketplaceit is a sanctum of superior discernment, where the art of economy reaches its most illustrious expression.

Preferred solution: try calling them

No real person to answer your questions also it’s a loopy message

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

After my cruise, I received one shop card instead of two because I booked two separate staterooms. I was trying to contact the customer service team and was told they are the travel agency only.

Loss:
$40
Pros:
  • Membership
Cons:
  • It is not easy to reach anyone

Preferred solution: Give me $40 shop card as promised

User's recommendation: Do not book with Costco Travel, it seems to me that they are not a part of Costco no customer service professional relationship at all

  • - 4/11/2025 to 4/16/2025: Costco Travel issues.
  • - Incompetence and attitude at the rental site affected Costco Travel and Costco Wholesale standing.

From4/11/2025 until yesterday4/16/2025, dealing with Costco Travel was like a dog chasing its tail.

The incompetence and attitude at the rental site was a blot on Costco Travel and Costco Wholesale reputation. Especially for me a long time member.

Wrong vehicle I asked for gasoline they gave me an electric only 70% charge plus, I had a way to half hour to do the paperwork and another half hour to get the key and then they blocked me in

AI Highlights
  • - Budget issues left a car unavailable; EV was 70% charged.
  • - Slow charging, long paperwork, and being blocked in by rentals.

Budget was the issue my car was not available they gave me an electric vehicle only 70 percent charged for a 70 year old buckaroo from Oregon charging at relatives house was extremely slow 5 percent overnight the entire episode was a very slow start 30 minutes to get the vehicle paperwork done 30 minutes to get the key downstairs. Im walking with a cane then they blocked me in with their rental vehicles behind me in front of me the entire episode took so long to get out of the rental area and during the three days I had to constantly worry about how to get the vehicle charged
