Your calls always answered within 5 rings.
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.
Everything perfect, service outstanding above and beyond, would not use anyone else
Thanks to Connie for sorting the last minute changes so swiftly
Well organised thanks. Everything went smoothly and as described on phone
Thanks Jessie. It all worked out really well. See you again next time
Emma was brilliant and we were very happy with the flights and communication
Graham and Rebecca were great
Thank you very much for all your help - brilliant service
Iberia were a let down - very dirty plane on way out. Service a bit slapdash. No Iberia staff in airports to help, flight gate numbers not correct, staff unhelpful. Would not fly with them again.
Good communication by Elliot - flight was fine by Aer Lingus
As always, Cameron found the best price and advice, also checked on us the day before our trip to ensure we were happy and had everything ready to go
Excellent 5 stars
Great service. Olivia is our go to advisor. Excellent
Everything went well from booking to coming back from my trip! Though I did not have to use the complimentary car hire. Flight cost is OK with it.
Kieran Greenfield extremely professional and knowledgeable. Superb service, everything went smoothly as always.
Excellent as always.
Everything went well
Mike was accessible each time I needed to contact him. Everything went smoothly. The company couldn’t support with accommodation we were looking for in the area we wanted which was disappointing. Otherwise everything was good.
Always reliable
Second year we have used Ben and the team at DialAFlight for our visit to Orlando. Everything went like clockwork and would certainly recommend DialAFlight to anyone thinking of planning a holiday.
I appreciated the personal service, with communication from Robbie up until my flight and a direct phone number in case I had any problems. Thankfully not needed but reassuring.
Abbie is always great at finding good deals with the routes we prefer. I now book all my flights through her as I also get the extra protection and support if things go wrong for any reason
As always Robbie has gone over and above -had a great time in New York
Very good service.
The service was excellent
Thank you to Jordan for always booking us the best holidays
Tristan is excellent
Once again Colin Barlow delivered and gave us a trouble free trip. He’s the best!
Zac was amazing.
Singapore's star is shining ever more brightly as a top tourist destination - it has a fantastic bar and foodie scene and a host of new design hotels. And of course it has a reputation for being a super-safe and super-clean city.
The island city-state off southern Malaysia is a melting pot of trade, tourism and cultures - it's a global financial centre with a tropical climate and multi-cultural population.
Its colonial core centres on the Padang, a cricket field since the 1830s and now flanked by grand buildings such as City Hall, with its 18 Corinthian columns. And in Chinatown, dating from about 1820, stands the red-and-gold Buddha Tooth Relic Temple, said to house one of Buddha's teeth.
Singapore is ideal either as a final destination or as a stopover en route to Australia or New Zealand. Here's how to get the best and most fun out of it in two days.
First evening
A selection of flights from Heathrow land round about 6pm local time.
A 30-minute or so drive from Changi airport will get you to your hotel - and shortly afterwards to the bar, with perhaps a Madame Butterfly cocktail in your hand (tequila, watermelon, rosé wine and soda water).
Singapore's famous Raffles is reopening this summer after a major refurbishment, so a revitalising Singapore Sling will be available there - or otherwise that particular cocktail can also be thoroughly enjoyed at the Loof bar in the Civic District.
Day One, morning
Download the Grab app - Singapore's version of Uber - then head to the Marina Bay Sands Hotel, where you can pop up to the rooftop Lavo restaurant for brunch with a view. The ricotta pancakes with lemon and blueberries are divine. If you want something a little different, how about chicken and waffles?
Next door to the hotel is the lotus flower-shaped ArtScience Museum, which hosts exhibitions from design to technology. A short walk away, the Gardens By The Bay cover 250 acres and feature 220,000 plants.
The 18 futuristic, steel-clad 'trees' are actually giant exhausts for the turbines that cool the bio-dome greenhouses.
Afternoon
Head to one of Singapore's giant malls and you'll never be short of shopping and dining opportunities, but it's even better for a reviving blast of cool air in a city that often has high humidity levels.
At Ion on Orchard Road, there are plenty of designer stores to browse, although there are budget options too. As a tourist, you can claim back the seven per cent Goods & Services Tax.
When you're ready for a snack, go to the basement food court for toast with kaya, a caramel-like spread of sugar, coconut milk and eggs.
Evening
In Chinatown, chef Ivan Brehm, formerly of Heston Blumenthal's Fat Duck, conjures up superb flavours at Nouri. A five-course tasting menu with wine pairings costs £155 per person. Dishes include Afro-Brazilian fritters with turmeric, coconut sauce, bread and salted prawn vatapa, and nasturtium marshmallow with candied orange.
A short walk away is Native, where Vijay Mudaliar crafts cocktails from weird and wonderful ingredients including pureed grasshoppers.
Day Two, morning
Escape the hustle and bustle and see a different side of Singapore by taking the North-South line of the metro to Kranji and the Kranji War Cemetery, where 4,000 Commonwealth soldiers killed in two world wars lie buried.
Before you head back, join the locals in the Kopitam cafe at Kranji station, where a bowl of laksa - spicy noodle soup - costs less than £2.50.
Afternoooon
Back in central Singapore, see places featured in the recent hit movie Crazy Rich Asians from the sidecar of a souped-up, chauffeur-driven Vespa. The two-hour tour includes a stop for food.
Evening
Hawker centres are an institution here - no-frills food courts where the prices are great and food is top-notch.
In Queenstown, Timbre+ provides a modern take on one, with outlets housed in shipping containers. Grab a bucket of ice for your beers, then choose a starter at one spot, a main somewhere else and dessert at a third.
Before you head to Changi Airport for your flight back to the UK, kick back at Timbre+'s rooftop pool - it's open until midnight.
