Your calls always answered within 5 rings.
All went as planned but would have liked a little more help with flight seating options
Amazing. Quick. Helpful. Perfect outcome - thank you
Great service from Lee, would use again
We have used DialAFlight for a number of years and always have good service. You only get what you pay for in life - if you want good service then you have to pay a bit more
Great dealing with DialAFlight, very friendly and professional - special thanks to Lewis - also love all the emails he sends out with lots of information with a lot of humour - thank you
Utterly trustworthy, efficient and very friendly.
Always great service. Wouldn’t use anyone else.
Your travel managers helped me book flights and check in prior to my flights.
The link with Jetstar to Emirates is not good. Jetstar requires you to pay for food and entertainment. Both ways I was unable to check in online which means you get no choice of seat. Worse from Melbourne as Jetstar staff are less than efficient.
Fabulous service again. Thanks Helen and team.
All went without a hitch, many thanks
Trevor Henderson was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. I would definitely use your company again for similar trips
Thank you - excellent service
Everything went well however my outward flight from London to Hong Kong was delayed by an hour and I wonder if I can claim for this delay
Excellent service as always
Very happy with the service and will continue to book with DialAFlight.
I travel to Australia twice a year and always get excellent service. Thank you!
Brilliant service as always. The flight was excellent. Particular thanks to Isaac for his efforts in accommodating our changed requirements.
Excellent service as usual.
Oliver found better flights and moved things about to help me. Everything went like clockwork.
Brilliant service from a well organised team especially considering the time frame from booking to flying. Well done!
Charlie went above and beyond to support me and get me flights to Australia for a family medical emergency and extended my flights when further medical interventions were needed. He responded quickly and gave me additional information and quotes for my lone 12-year-old having to possibly travel and advised on visas and assisted with dietary requirements. I have used DialAFlight since 2008 and appreciate the service.
As always, wonderful service and Theo is so helpful
A big thank you to Reece for yet again finding us an excellent flight at a reasonable price and making our latest trip so easy.
Ray was so helpful right from the start and nothing was a problem to him. I would definitely use DialAFlight again
Tony delivered as always
Thank you to Lucy and Sadie for all their help and advice - everything was made so much easier.
For flights (long haul) check if any meal requirements. Other passengers had pre-ordered vegetarian meals. We didn't have this option at any stage...
Matthew again very helpful - getting us to Australia and back when our dates were unavoidably changed
Dexter extremely efficient, friendly, and has great comms!
My plan for my eagerly-anticipated trip to Thailand was - there was no plan. Just three weeks of winter sunshine, island-hopping with a girl pal - a relaxing break from my job as a weather forecaster on ITV.
After flying to Bangkok, we took another plane direct to Krabi on the west of the mainland. There was no time to waste... a beach was waiting.
Railay Bay in Krabi is picture-perfect Thailand and the ideal place to kick off a holiday. Long-tail boats parked in neat rows bobbed along the shoreline with crystal-clear turquoise water lapping at the limestone cliffs. The cliffs are popular with climbers.
I didn't quite muster the courage to scale a sheer rock face in a harness - although we did clamber up a 70-degree slope using just ropes. It was totally worth it.
After the initial steep incline, we found ourselves in rainforest-style terrain with a breathtaking view of the entire peninsula.
The striking white cliffs and dense tropical jungle-style greenery define Krabi.
We drank our body weight in fresh coconut milk and pina coladas in our first couple of days as we acclimatised to our new surroundings and gradually began to relax.
Afternoons were spent deciding where to sunbathe after simple lunches - mostly of satays and papaya salads.
We called the latter 'papaya salad roulette'- as you never knew how spicy it was going to be. Some were well into blow-your-socks-off country.
RELAXING MASSAGE
I lost count of the massages we had, each one leaving me blissfully floppy.
We loved the bars with their boho beanbags, low tables and bamboo terraces overlooking the bay.
We didn't want to leave Railay Bay in Krabi, but we had arranged to head to Phuket to meet up with some ex-pat friends over from Hong Kong.
We stayed at the famous Slate hotel. It's a huge hotel with a choice of three pools surrounded by tropical plants - and even our room came with its own courtyard, plunge pool and outside bathtub.
Nearby, Nai Yang Beach was quiet and unspoilt - a fitting location for sundowners and more popular with locals swinging in their hammocks than tourists.
From Phuket, the hotel arranged our transfers to Koh Lanta via the island of Phi Phi, where we stopped off for the day and hired a long-tail boat to go snorkelling. With just us aboard, our guide tailor-made the whole afternoon and we even found an idyllic little secluded bay for lunch.
We then took a ferry to Koh Lanta. Until I arrived in Koh Lanta I thought I had reached the peak of relaxation - but there it was like stepping back in time, with a slightly hippy vibe.
I saw as many home-made signs for beachside yoga as I did for happy hours. The resort was on the edge of Phra-Ae Beach, home to a string of rustic restaurants and chilled-out bars.
BEACH BARBECUES
Beach barbecues became an evening ritual - barefoot, still in our sundresses, bikinis and smelling of sun cream. I'm sure all this made the freshly-barbecued fish and local Singha beer taste even better.
For a change of scenery we took a tuk tuk to nearby Long Beach - three miles of soft sand fringed by shady tall pine trees. The shade was something we were craving after going out on paddle-boards in the strong late-afternoon sunshine.
I'd only paddle-boarded once before but the still, clear waters of the Andaman Sea were the ideal place to get into the swing of it. After a very floppy few days in Koh Lanta, it was time to mentally prepare ourselves to head back to London life, via Bangkok.
BUZZING BANGKOK
Bustling Bangkok was an assault on the senses at first after so much relaxation. But Hotel Muse couldn't have suited us better. In a brilliant location, it was a calm sanctuary in the craziness of Bangkok's streets. Our suite was huge, with the comfiest beds.
Someone had suggested we go to a club called Sing Sing - it's one of the best I've ever been to, buzzy and with friendly staff. With espresso martinis in hand, we made friends from all over the world.
I already plan to go back to meet them there again.
