Secret Flight Club - Reviews and experiences

I clicked on a whim and paid £30. When the confirmation popped up I actually laughed. Not perfect — seat change later — but cheap, simple and I’m happy enough.

I signed up through their perks page last month — thought it’d be more spam; at first skeptical, but the emails feel practical and the deals actually work.

neat alerts and cheap fares, and delivery of tickets was fast. CS was helpful (bit slow once), so not perfect.

it found a good bargain, but honestly most searches you can do yourself in minutes. My advice: test it once, don’t sign up blind, save the fee unless you're lazy.

killer deals, easy to use, customer reps helpful. Not perfect, some timing hiccups, but I'm really happy overall.

I signed up last month through a sister brand promo and honestly didn’t expect much. First newsletter landed and I tried a perk right away. The booking was smooth and that extra travel credit popped up — that’s when I felt pleased. Handy, low fuss.

Pretty handy for quick city breaks — I'd recommend giving it a shot. I kept seeing ads on Instagram so finally clicked; the emails are kind of quirky and the deals change per destination. I use it for spontaneous weekend trips, saves a bit, though not always huge.

Halfway through a packed week I started getting short deal emails and they made scanning for a quick weekend trip trivial. I needed this because I hate digging through sites and had missed good fares before. The alerts feel precise, emails arrive reliably and — unexpectedly — Greenland popped up.

Kept getting short, useful emails — nothing flashy. Took a bit to register to get them on time, but customer support answered a question about the airport parking discount quickly. Not perfect, a small hassle, but the perk saved a few bucks. If you sign up, check delivery timing.

cheap, spontaneous, a little cramped but worth it. Tip: pack light.

I was half-joking when I clicked the signup link, figured I'd seen it all — but the moment I booked a New York return for pennies (okay, £305) I laughed out loud. Their emails point straight to real deals, especially long-haul. After getting burned by other sites before, this felt legit and satisfying, like winning a lottery

they billed me after I cancelled, no refund, and that stuck, even though it seemed unfair. I'm relieved I noticed the fine print early. Tip: read the cancellation policy first.

Don't sign up — that's my verdict. I used it to hunt cheap flights for weekend trips, but they kept sending promo emails I ignored and then charged me £29 for an annual membership on auto‑renewal even though I had cancelled it. Tried cancelling again, it just says 'will renew next year'. Now I have to change my card, I'll lose the cash.

clean layout, short blurbs that actually tell you something (weirdly helpful), so I booked a handful of cheap trips just to try it out. Booking itself felt straightforward, and I used the newsletter parking discount for the airport — saved more than I expected. Nice to stumble on destinations I’d never heard of; keeps travel feeling easy and a bit fun.

not worth it. The app mostly mirrors Google Flights searches and emails, but the prices they show are misleading. When you click through you land on Google Flights and the fare is usually higher, so it's basically a sniffer that gives wrong numbers. It also misses many airports (so if you're trying to get home from a smaller place you're out of luck). I signed up, noticed within 15 minutes and cancelled. Weirdly it flagged one cheap connection I hadn't seen, but that was a fluke. Tip: double-check.

try the free trial, but don't pay full price unless it grows on you.

links that confidently say “cancel renewal” but don’t make clear what actually happens, so I clicked them a few times (yes, really). When the trial ended I was billed $39 for the year with no reminder, no heads-up, nothing in the mail. Support only sent an automatic reply and then went quiet. The alerts do work — you do get notices about fares — so it’s not useless, just messy and misleading in parts. My takeaway: set a calendar reminder before the trial expires and watch your bank statement. I’ll probably try a different alert service next time. Useful enough, but could be a lot clearer and less sneaky.

I gotta tell you, I signed up for the free trial but had to cancel it because my holiday plans for 2023 were already set. The thing is, I accidentally entered the wrong email address and got charged anyway. Luckily, when I reached out to the Club, they were super helpful, polite, and gave me a refund right away. I was really surprised by how great their customer service was. That two-factor authentication thing, where I had to enter a code to prove it was really me, was a nice security touch. Even with that little hiccup, I was pretty impressed with the deals they had and I'll definitely think about signing up again next year.

I just bought a round trip ticket to Cancun for only $437, what a steal! I'm really looking forward to my trip next year and I can't wait to explore everything Cancun has to offer. Huge shoutout to the folks at SFC for hooking me up with an awesome deal and top-notch customer service.

I booked a flight to this awesome place I've been wanting to visit for a while now. It was such a great deal, I got it for a little over $800 which is definitely worth it. I've always dreamed of going there, so I just went ahead and did it. The whole booking process was super easy and straightforward, and I'm really pumped for my trip!
