Hello Seef,
Thanks for leaving us a review and for using Cheapflights.
For the moment, we cannot help you book more than 9 flight reservations.
However, I would recommend you to use Cheapflights to find an attractive fare and then contact the airline or the travel agency directly to make arrangements for a group of 9+ travelers.
Cheapflights is not a travel agent and does not sell tickets directly; we are a travel comparison dedicated to bringing you the best current online prices available from airlines, online travel agents and hotels. Therefore we cannot assist you on booking.
You can use Cheapflights to search, and once you’ve done your flight search and have all your results, please click on the 'View Deal' box to be redirected to the booking site.

Beware, will not recommend this company
Beware, after accepting my booking and payment, they simply cancelled a few days later. Their excuse was that their was an error in the booking, hence they cancelled the booking. In their email they stated that the money would be refunded shortly. They further suggest that we book directly with the Airline. DON’T USE THEM, NOT REPUTABLE

The Trustpilot Experience
Anyone can write a Trustpilot review. People who write reviews have ownership to edit or delete them at any time, and they’ll be displayed as long as an account is active.
Companies can ask for reviews via automatic invitations. Labeled Verified, they’re about genuine experiences.
Learn more about other kinds of reviews.
We use dedicated people and clever technology to safeguard our platform. Find out how we combat fake reviews.
Learn about Trustpilot’s review process.
Here are 8 tips for writing great reviews.
Verification can help ensure real people are writing the reviews you read on Trustpilot.
Offering incentives for reviews or asking for them selectively can bias the TrustScore, which goes against our guidelines.
