Has anyone else had issues with StubHub? Three times I’ve tried to purchase a ticket only to be informed shortly after that the seller can’t deliver. I actually had a seller text me directly saying he couldn’t give me the ticket due to high fees and then he tried to sell it to me directly. The last situation was actually a ticket StubHub offered in place of a failed ticket…and I was just notified that this ticket owner couldn’t deliver either! Silly me, I thought a ticket that StubHub offered as a replacement would be secure!

2022 TRAVEL PREDICTIONS FROM SCOTT'S CHEAP FLIGHTS

"There will be more cheap flights to Paris in 2022 than 2021. (70% confidence)
Though Europe has been largely open for vaccinated Americans since summer 2021, this upcoming summer is when I’d expect travel-hungry Americans to return in droves. In 2021 our flight experts found 1,107 different cheap flights from the US to Paris—2022 will bring more than that."

"Despite misleading headlines about the EU “banning” American travelers, only a few EU countries imposed a mandatory quarantine on vaccinated American travelers in the second half of 2021. By this summer, I expect virtually the entire continent will be open and welcoming vaccinated Americans.”
