I wrote to the customer service about that and no one responded. I had to go to cat cocos office at 6:30 am and try to convince them that I paid for the tickets. It took half an hour and only few minutes before the departure time it has been confirmed.”

“I booked a business class ticket on Viator only to be sent an upper economy ticket by cat cocos. When i asked why, i was told viator and cat cocos are different companies and cat cocos only received payment for upper economy. I am disappointed. Why is viator selling tickets for cat cocos when there is no relationship? And what happened to the difference in money of my tickets?”
