Bravofly (website)

Bravofly.com is a dishonest organisation with zero accountability and questionable morals. Following the COVID-19 pandemic, Bravofly.com has gone dark, refusing to communicate with any of the thousands of customers they have left stranded in other countries. Despite ongoing sales through the Bravofly.com website, and the parent company being easily contactable, all Bravofly.com phone numbers have been disconnected and there is no other means of communication.

In 2006, the headquarters were moved to Chiasso and the company introduced websites for Spain, France, Germany and the United Kingdom.[3]

in November 2012, it acquired Rumbo.[4]

In December 2013, the company announced the acquisition of Jetcost, a French travel meta-search site.[5][6]

In March 2015, the company acquired Lastminute.com.[7]

In April 2014, the company became a public company via an initial public offering on the SIX Swiss Exchange.[3]
