Your calls always answered within 5 rings.
Finn Conlon as always did an excellent job for which I am very grateful.
Not aware that Palm Springs car rental at Alamo did not open until we had to check-in. Checked their website and found their advice about checking in early morning.
Always keeps us up to date on all of our travel arrangements.
Everything went to plan. Had a wonderful time with my family and seeing my grandson graduate from university.
For the many, many years I have dealt with DAF and Ewan and his team, they have never let us down, and our recent trip was perfect as well. Thanks DAF for being just a 100% perfect company to deal with.
Disappointed not to have adjacent seats from Sacramento to Dallas. Suffice it say we will never fly BA again. Got our lost baggage back last night.
Peter looked after my trip from beginning to end, thank you
Everything went like clockwork - very nice resort
Excellent contact and communication. Clear information on flights and good choice of hotel. Probably need to inform customers about hotel tax!
Very polite and efficient service
Have dealt with Christian for many a year and would not organise a trip through anyone else. Superb as always.
Everything was perfect thanks. Great seats on the plane. Great car. Excellent connections. Thanks.
Mason has always helped us with travel plans superbly and the app from DialAflight is really helpful.
I know someone is looking after me from booking to arriving back home. Makes my trips stress free
As always perfect in every way, great holiday, fantastic hotel recommendation, caring communication - pre hols and post hols checkin.
The car hire arrangement was just what I wanted - thank you
Gino gave great service and even booked us upgraded seats for the best price - a nice touch and much appreciated
A bit more clarification re US time zones would be good.
All good thank you
Thank you for the ongoing support, even whilst we were on holiday and needed to call! Des was great right from booking through to the travel date.
Philippa was great throughout the whole process - thank you for your help!
Would highly recommend. Thank you Steven Merralls and team.
Always a pleasure to book with DialAflight. Very professional and efficient. I look forward to the courtesy call 24 hours before I travel . Professionalalism at its best.
We had a problem with our hotel room. One phone call and all sorted! Thank you
Shelley has been fantastic and I’ve already asked her to start looking at options for NZ next year
Gary always does a great job … I don’t go anywhere else for travel
Ashley and his colleagues very helpful and found them very competitive.
Always a good service.
You booked me return flights with BA but they became AA flights, not such a good airline. The Miami transition was a nightmare. Don’t use that airport unless you have to. Only just made the flight, and wouldn’t have managed but I had to jump the line several times. Lots of muttering and savage looks, but I did it.
Plane was diverted to JFK. Navigation down. Put on another plane.
Freedom is a loaded word in Hong Kong. Ever since the UK handed the former British colony back to China 20 years ago there have been protests over democracy.
They are likely to get louder. But this sense of being caught between two worlds is why the city remains such a fascinating place to visit.
A New York minute is still a Hong Kong second (an American expression that acknowledges that the pace of business life in Hong Kong is, astonishingly, even faster than that of New York); the Star Ferry on Victoria Harbour dutifully delivers 20 million people a year between mainland Kowloon and Hong Kong Island. And it all works perfectly, from the efficient MTR tube network stretching to the border, to children in crisp uniforms walking to school in crocodile lines.
China and Hong Kong have put their differences aside to build a 31-mile, multi-billion-pound bridge linking Hong Kong with Zhuhai and Macau. The mega-structure is due to open this year.
Life is being breathed into the once run-down Old Town Central. Where the British planted their flag in 1842 a younger generation is descending on craft beer shops and hipster cafes.
A full-colour graffiti of Bruce Lee pays homage to the martial arts icon, who was raised in Kowloon.
For Bruce fans, there is also an exhibition on his life and career at the Heritage Museum until summer 2018.
Rural scenery accounts for 70 per cent of Hong Kong. Mountain ascents are at your fingertips; queue for the rickety tram up Victoria Peak and you'll be rewarded with a view of futuristic towers rising from the greenery.
Pound the rusty-red dirt of the Dragon's Back trail near To Tei Wan village for a more ambitious climb (from one to six hours, depending on the chosen route).
At Nan Lian Garden in Diamond Hill, Chinese zither music sets a sedate pace on paths around laurel, koi ponds and pagodas.
Dim Sum cafe chain Tim Ho Wan serves the world's cheapest Michelin-starred food. Two venues have this mark of quality - but avoid their queues by tucking in at the Hong Kong Station branch. Bottomless tea is 30p and the pork buns are £2 for three.
Or join the refined crowd at gallery-restaurant Duddell's, which merges Cantonese food with a modern atmosphere.
An old ping-pong hall in Sai Ying Pun is now the trendy tapas-and-gin hangout Ping Pong Gintoneria, while Japanese yakitori restaurant Yardbird, in Tai Ping Shan, is the place to be seen.
Seek out the speakeasies around lively Hollywood Road; Mrs Pound's chop-shop facade is a world away from the neon glamour inside, while Stockton is down a hidden alley. Newly-opened Kwoon, which seats about ten, turns out great cocktails to order.
With no sales tax, designer stores are a magnet for serious shoppers. Spend half a day in Mong Kok. The Ladies' Market, selling chopsticks and silk garments, is close to the Goldfish Market - where you’ll be eyeballed by reptiles and glistening fish. Pulling favours from the spirits is big business. Fortune tellers tucked between market stalls help with life's major decisions and Taoist temples inhabit the unholiest of alleyways, their incense burning like beacons in the dark.
Hollywood Road's Man Mo Temple is the oldest and most revered. Reputedly home of the literary spirit, it is the scene of parents laying celery and spring onions to boost their children’s school grades.
The Big Buddha of Lantau pulls in the crowds, but Lamma Island, where a small community is built around a fish farm, is an escape from the chaos.
Seafood restaurants here look more like aquariums. But there’s one fish that isn’t for the table - a 2.74m oarfish, mounted inside the temple, which was so rare when it was caught that the fishermen declared it a god.
