Your calls always answered within 5 rings.
All just fantastic.
Thanks Jake for all your help. Had a great time
Everything went smoothly, flights were on time and the transfer at Hong Kong was easy.
Outstanding all round!
All went well with no problems
Jim, you and your team were everything I could have wished for. My 10 round the world flights were well documented and together with your 24/7 team made this such an easy journey
Wouldn’t hesitate to use you again. Erin was extremely helpful and efficient.
Excellent service from Callum
Hannah is all over the process and has been so helpful and patient. I look forward to purchasing future flights from her.
Excellent choice of hotels in all locations. Arrangements for pickup in Caticlan by the hotel went very smoothly. Enjoyed our stay immensely. Definitely recommend
Avoid early morning flights. 02.15am is not a good time to fly.
Always top service, thank you very much.
Tony packaged a great vacation - took our requirements and turned them into a fantastic time in the Far East.
All went exactly as planned, with transfers and pick ups all working really well. I will be in touch to plan my next multi stop holiday
As always , your service was impeccable. However, I was disappointed with Emirates and would prefer not to fly with them again.
Thank you. Five stars
As always everything was perfect. I always recommend DialAFlight to all my friends. I’ve never had anything but great service.
Thank you Elizabeth - wheelchair access on flights and at the Banyan Tree worked perfectly. The hotel staff really looked after Barbara like she was their own mother, made her feel so special and pampered.
As always, firdst class. Harry follows up to ensure you have everything you need. A faultless service
Probably wouldn't fly BA again.
Great service from Darryll - would recommend! Booked 7 flights for a single trip including seaplane and airport transfers.
Only thing that didn't live up to expectations was the taxi service from the airport to the destination.
Can’t get a better service, excellent!
Great service as usual, thank you!
Great service as usual.
Karl looked after us regarding choice of hotel, very pleased with the whole trip and his suggestions.
Well organised trip. I always use DialAFlight
Been regular customers for years and there is a reason for that!
All good thank you. Emirates need to improve seat allocation. Many people complaining after boarding flights.
Good communication throughout
Bangkok is known as a stopover – somewhere to spend a few hedonistic hours before going on to the coast. Well, that may have been true 20 years ago. Now it's a place to linger.
Zoom up Silom road - through the commercial district - towards the shopping centres of Siam Square to see how the city has flourished.
The Skytrain monorail moves silently overhead. Designer labels abound. The shiny Siam Paragon shopping centre has a car park just for supercars.
Then there's Asiatique, a bustling night market of 1,500 shops on the banks of the Chao Phraya River.
Handicrafts and trinkets sit alongside fashion boutiques and gadgets and nothing closes before midnight. If you are laden with goodies, as I am, a fleet of tuk-tuks is waiting outside.
Racing away, we fly over holes in the road. A dramatic swerve and a loud judder tell me we've arrived back at the swanky Mandarin Oriental. They've seen it all here.
From writer Somerset Maugham, bedridden with malaria, to Mick Jagger insisting the windows in the royal suite be blacked out and Billy Idol wrecking his room completely.
Celebs aside, the hotel has a cooking school and I take a class with chef Narain. A kaleidoscope of ingredients is laid out before us. Those we know: ginger, lime leaves; fish sauce, lemongrass. And those we don't, the tiny butterfly pea – a flower from which a brilliant blue dye can be used to colour desserts.
We watch, ask questions and taste. Then attempt Siamese baked desserts (small, dome-shaped pancakes); braised pork; fiery tom yum soup and a salad of grapefruit-like pomelo.
I slice, chop, juice and pummel. Chef Narain chats away. Chillies, it turns out, are a matchmaking tool. 'Mothers looking for a suitable wife for their sons spy on the neighbour's daughters to assess the speed with which they grind the spice,' he laughs. 'The faster the grinding, the better wife she will make.'
Food is a big deal in Bangkok. Take the Skytrain to Thong Lor and Sukhumvit Soi 38, a line of steamy, noisy, kitchens-on-wheels. There can be no better initiation to Thai street food.
Grab a wobbly table and gobble sticky rice with mango, curries, pad Thai, squid and duck. Delicious.
