Your calls always answered within 5 rings.
Great service, as usual. Would definitely recommend DialAFlight
Connection outbound too long. Should have been on an earlier flight. Return was almost too short - they told us to run!
Excellent flight choice - perfect timing, amazing hotel, superb all round
Gino booked flights and hotels for a 2 centre stay in Mexico and gave us suggestions for things to do. Had the most amazing time, hotels were excellent and locations great. We could not have done it ourselves at the price
Brilliant as usual. And thank you to Julie Harris! The food was really excellent on the flight!
Keep up the great work
Russell was incredibly helpful and ensured everything was set for me ahead of my trip!
Singapore pick up was a bit hectic as we couldn't find our driver. It would he helpful to know that as soon as you come out of customs you are in the arrivals hall and need to turn to the left where the pick up drivers wait.
As efficient as always!
As usual, great service
The return flight from Doha was akin to being in a zoo
Friendly responsive and efficient
EvaAir flight was extremely cold. Complained to no avail .
Roy and his team gave us a first class service as always
Perfect service from booking and leading up to our trip of a lifetime. Nothing was too much trouble and we will definitely continue to use you.
Big thank you to Lily who arranged our trip to Phuket this year. She has been amazing and have already booked our holiday for 2026 with her.
This is the second time we have used DialAFlight. I must say the service from Colin Barlow has been exceptional. He is extremely professional and friendly and is the reason why we will continue to use DialAFlight for future holidays.
Great trip, thanks
Micky and team always reliable
Rob great as usual - thanks to everyone
Thank you for your help. Looking forward to the next booking
Edward was always helpful and advised us of all changes
We have had the best holiday. Luke couldn’t have chosen better - location and hotels were first class. I couldn’t be happier with the service
I love the support DialAFlight provides and I like being able to quickly sort flights with a real person who can see the best value ones.
Exceeded all expectations ... best holiday ever. Thank you Sam Nott
The 24/7 out of hours team were very helpful and made what was a stressful situation a lot easier and got us home.
Would it be possible to ensure that e-ticket numbers are provided on documentation as we needed these to check in and had to call the out of hours number to get the numbers. Otherwise excellent - Sean was really helpful and was able to rebook us onto a sooner flight when ours was delayed.
We always get good value for money
We were very grateful for Christian's expertise and swift response to all our questions during the booking process
Inside Japan were outstanding and our guide, Finn Sands-Davies, was superb.
When it comes to island paradises, Phuket is a winner. Located off the south west coast of Thailand, it has wide beaches, blissful temperatures and clear, inviting water with a distinctive blue-green hue.
You can spend your days lazing on the soft sand, hiking through rainforest, enjoying world-class spa treatments or snorkelling, scuba diving, surfing, windsurfing or Hobie Cat sailing.
Your evenings might well be taken up enjoying delicious food (the island will soon, for the first time, be included in the Michelin guide to Thailand). The cuisine on the island tends to be a wonderful blend of complementary styles - an alluring mix of Asian and western delicacies - and it's one of Phuket's major attractions.
Chefs here seem to know better than anywhere else in the world how to use delicate flavours and fragrant spices and the seafood is heavenly.
Spa treatments here take on a new concept as they are married with the ancient traditions of natural healing, including herbal baths and meditation. The levels of tranquility and relaxation that can be reached are remarkable.
For a change of pace, Phuket Town has temples, markets and cultural attractions. And the Old Town has street after street of colourful colonial-style mansions and townhouses now the home to shops and small restaurants.
Breathtaking views
And a simple but enthralling experience can be had by heading for one of the noted viewpoints, such as Kata, Rang Hill, Leam Singh or Promthep Cape - they give a magnificent vista of the entire island. One of the best views is from the site of The Big Buddha (the majority of Thais are practising Buddhists) - it's a 45-metre tall white marble statue that is worth a hot walk up to see close.
Phuket is one of those destinations that can be delightful at any time of year - it has such a wide range of attributes that it can come up with the goods for whatever type of holiday, active or otherwise, that is required.
November to April is generally cooler and drier - a great time to escape the British winter. Some of the more popular hotels and resorts book up quickly at this time.
It is often at its warmest in July and August, when temperatures can occasionally reach 40 degrees - and often accompanied by some intense downpours. But this is also when your hotel of choice may well be available at particularly good value.
If you’re looking to stay at a beach resort, you are spoilt for choice. There are many from which to choose and each has its own distinctive character and personality.
You’ll find upmarket resorts – with equally upmarket accommodation – on Surin and Ao Bang Thao, family-oriented spots on Rawai, a party atmosphere on Patong, culture in Phuket Town and wildlife sanctuaries and national parks in the north.
There is accommodation of every conceivable type to suit every conceivable taste - from intimate boutique properties to expansive wellness retreats.
Something for everyone
Patong and Mai Khao are both popular options for beach stays. For undeveloped beauty, Mai Khao is hard to beat - it has an 11km stretch of coarse white sand that has remained untouched thanks to its location inside Sirinat National Park.
Patong, on the other hand, is all about having fun, with lively nightlife, watersports and activities available during the day.
Many decide that they want to mix a stay in Phuket with a visit to other parts of Thailand. The multi-centre trip is becoming ever more popular.
The obvious partner for a Phuket beach stay is the buzzing capital city of Bangkok. A twin-centre holiday such as this delivers fabulous contrasts.
Or you could also have a different type of beach and city experience by combining a sandy sojourn in the Phi Phi Islands with an exploration of the towns and interior on Phuket. This can be very rewarding.
This combination of stays, for example, could see you based at Wanaburi, on the doorstep of the beautiful Kho Phra Teaw National Park.
Whatever face of Phuket you choose to focus on, you'll find yourself captivated by this deceptively diverse island.
