Testimonials

“Passport Premiere/John Schwartz go the extra distance to find the most competitive fare and leave no stone unturned. Creative and cost effective – typically reducing the price one pays meaningfully.”

“Been using Passport Premiere for many years. They issue alerts of fare sales, they allow you top hold a fare while their system monitors for lower fare (while preserving the fare you held), they offer advice (via email or phone). Their customer service is great. And they allow you to travel in luxe at sometimes close to full coach fares. You will not be disappointed. But you have to use them and you have to work a little on your side to get what you want – vies Passport Premier as a great ally to great travel!”

“I used Passport Premiere for an international flight between Melbourne and New York and managed to obtain a business seat for the price of an economy. The ad popped up on Facebook and I clicked it out of interest; I can safely say this is the best impulse ad click I have ever made.

Their unique system allows flyers to view the lowest fare over the past year for the desired flight and this really assisted with the timing of my ticket purchase to coincide with the repeat of that low fare.

These guys saved me so much money so I cannot recommend them more!”

“Thanks so much for your system which offers outstanding value to travelers like me.  After initial sticker shock, I was beginning to think that I could no longer afford business class. When I began planning my trip to Italy, all the business class fares I could findstarted at $5,000 per person. For two of us, 10K was just more than I could justify. The Fare Monitor system found business class fares 50% lower than when I initially started my searches. I ended up paying less for business than I would have for premium economy had I ticketed before joining Premiere. Amazingly, I didn’t have to purchase until 30 days prior which also helped.

Very Happy and Very Satisfied”

“If not for your service, I would be traveling coach and would not have reached Elite status in the One World alliance. Reaching platinum level on Qantas has enabled me to upgrade to First Class several times on the new Airbus 380 which is an unbelievable method of flying. This has saved me several hundred per year by not having to renew my Admirals Club membership. Both my wife and I get free admission. I have received value well beyond what I paid. Please use this testimonial any way you see fit.”

“I used to buy tickets early as I thought that’s how you get the best fares. But as my plans would frequently change I can’t tell you how much money I wasted on non-refundable “deal” tickets that ended up expiring.  Not only did I give airlines an interest free loan with my hard earned money by purchasing early, they have the nerve to tell me my tickets mysteriously” purged” when I needed to travel the following year. The only thing that purged was my cash from my bank account into theirs for which I received nothing in return. I am always interested in saving money, but I am more concerned with not wasting money. Premiere keeps my money IN MY POCKET until a ticket absolutely has to be purchased saving me on change fees and wasted tickets. I just wish I had found you about 15 years ago! I could have bought a house for what I’ve wasted with airlines over the years”

“I used the Fare Monitor service for a trip for my husband between San Francisco and London. Fares were over $5,000 for business class. I found this to be higher than what we had paid in the past, but he can only fly business class for a trip of this length. After one month of updates, there was little change in the pricing. Just when we were about to bite the bullet, Passport Premiere found nonstop flights with British Airways for just $2,000. Just when I was beginning to doubt your system, Passport Premiere proved me wrong.

Thanks so much”

“After buying 4 business class tickets to Australia to celebrate my 70th birthday in 2019, my trip was suddenly cancelled when the COVID pandemic hit in 2020. Though Passport Premiere saved me on bundle on the tickets, lockdowns and international travel embargoes made the tickets worthless to me. Despite Qantas cancelling their flights from the U.S. for a year, they had the nerve to deny my refund request. Instead, they offered travel credit vouchers that would have probably expired worthless. I said NO THANKS! I contacted Passport Premiere and they maintained that Qantas was wrong. Passport Premiere analyzed the fare rules and determined was entitled to a full refund. Passport Premiere contacted Qantas on my behalf and a few weeks later, I was shocked to receive a full refund from Qantas. Passport Premiere not only saved me money, they’re very professional and precise in what they do. Thanks Passport Premiere!”

“I have had the pleasure of working with this group, and John Schwartz specifically, for almost two decades and over 100 trips to 4 continents. John and 1st Air are my go to for international flights.

– Amazing service
– Absolutely the best prices every time, no gimmicks, no consolidator tickets
– Knows the aircraft and the carriers
– Cares about the customer

When I started flying again post COVID my first call was to John, for two international flights and as always he was there and helped me get the best seats on the best airlines at the best prices.”

“Saved $4000 on a single flight – I am a new user of Passport Premiere and travel to Germany frequently. Searching for a flight for an upcoming trip in October showed all Business Class flights at a minimum of $7100! As a Platinum Business member with American Airlines, this is the carrier I prefer but, I searched all carriers for a lower fare without success.

After creating a trip search on Passport Premiere, it came back immediately with a special fare, on American Airlines of $5400 however, they recommended I use “Fare Monitor” and wait for a lower fare. I waited and weeks later, received an email showing that the flights I wanted were now available for $3100. Needless to say, I booked my flights with them at $3100, thus saving $4000 on this one flight, vs. what was available directly from the American Airlines.

Any personal or business traveler would benefit from using this service and I highly recommend them to anyone traveling for business! 5-Stars!!”

“For a last minute trip between Paris and Brazil, Air France quoted me over 6,000 Euros.  Within three days, you helped me get the same flights for less than 3,000 Euros. What else can I say?”
