Back in July 2017, I submitted a comment to an article written by Gonomad.com.
This article was published (not sure when) giving a positive plug to this 3rd party airline booking site called JustFly.com and Flighthub.com.

This was my comment which was approved and published back in 2017:

This message is to the Editor Max Hartshorne and to the people at GoNomad Travel.
I found this article via a Google search of JustFly.com.
I highly recommend you make a full retraction of this article and distance yourself far away from JustFly.com. You are doing a great Public disservice by giving a plug to this Scam company!
JustFly.com and FlightHub.com are Frauds!

It doesn't give a date as to when this article was written but if you had googled JustFly or Flighthub reviews, you would be able to find multiple complaints written and filed against this 3rd party airline booking site.

In your article, you had referenced "TrustPilot" as a source for JustFly.com "Excellent" reviews and rating. You quoted "73.9% of the 17,349 reviews giving JustFly an excellent rating of 9.1." If you were to go to Trustpilot.com today (7/16/2017), JustFly.com has over 99,280 reviews and counting - with a 75% Excellent (5 star rating) and 19% Great (4 star rating).
In other words, 94% of the 99,280+ reviews received 4 to 5 stars! Seriously?!

So in 3 short years, this small, unknown 3rd party airline booking site had garnished 99,280+ reviews since its launch in 2014. And over 90% of the reviews are 4-5 stars!
Does something smell fishy?

If not, well then lets take a look at JustFly's ranking using Trustpilot "Best Flight Companies - Top Rated Businesses by Customers in the Flights category".
https://www.trustpilot.com/categories/flights?page=1

JustFly.com rank #19:

#1 Cash for my miles - 382 reviews
#2 FlyDealFare.com - 1461 reviews
#3 iFlyBusiness - 604 reviews
#4 SkyLux Travel - 2581 reviews
#5 Alpha Flight Guru - 1652 reviews
#6 JetNsave - 113 reviews
#7 AirHelp.com - 5701 reviews
#8 My Tickets to India - 419 reviews
#9 MyLuxuryFlights - 45
#10 Premeir Sky Ltd - 43 reviews
#11 Fly Jackson Hole - 34 reviews
#12 First in the Sky - 33 reviews
#13 Luxury Executive Travel - 33 reviews
#14 ASAP Ticketrs - 9086 reviews
#15 MyFlightSearch - 715 reviews
#16 FlyWorldClass - 28 reviews
#17 FlyoPedia - 739 reviews
#18 Fly Business For Less - 28 reviews
#19 JustFly - 99,282 reviews

Can you now see something is not legit?
Even the nationwide, well-known Priceline.com (created 20 years ago in 1997) has a ranking at #27 and they only have 40,517 reviews.

It is very clear that JustFly.com is a scam company.
Their "Excellent" reviews are NOT organic but artificially inflated; this company deliberately inundate the Trustpilot system with false positive reviews to deceive the public!
You can see the same nefarious actions on SiteJabber.com (they are a Yelp for websites and online businesses).

Please make a retraction and help warn the consumer public of this egregious company!
Thank you.

Now TODAY why was my comment and other negative comments removed?
And only kept the one comment from their JustFly Rep?
Did you get PAIDOFF by the JustFly Thieves?
