Very pleased with our trip although BA were not great. On the way out I checked in 10 minutes after it opened and could not get two seats together. Checking in online they would not issue boarding passes and we had to get to the airport early. The food on the way back was terrible. Films on board were OK but the music choice was all cheapie covers - like some sort of massive cheapo compilation - bizarre. Confirmed my dislike of BA
All went exactly to plan no problems at all. Rebecca Wilkie was amazing
Our flights with Air France to Ottawa were fabulous. They were all on time even though there was a global "IT glitch" on Friday 19th July, the day we commenced our return journey. The DialAFlight app is handy, a one stop shop for everything you need. Stuart and Graham always available to answer any questions you might have. Would book with DialAFlight again.
The service from Troy was fantastic - he was so responsive and managed to juggle our three different itineraries without problems. He was always good humoured even when we rang him constantly with silly questions - he deserves a medal for patience.
Christian was superb. I've already recommended him and your company to friends and family. So happy I booked my flights with you.
Great products, great prices, great service. Thank you
Leo was fantastic - made sure I was informed all the way. Will book again
Very quick and efficient
The suggestion by Doug that ‘assistance’ could be arranged was necessary because of AA delays. Thank you.
The service from Air Canada was appalling and you would do well not to recommend them to ANYONE .
Brilliant as always. 1st class info. All helps to make a long haul tolerable. Many thanks to Cody and team.
I would not recommend Air Canada as they cancelled our first flight and on our return put us on standby and split us all up even though we bought our seats together. They were very unhelpful
Hertz desk at Calgary was hopeless as insufficient cars and we had a long wait for cars. Hertz Granville street in Vancouver is in a really rough district so would not recommend drop off in this location
Raj told me that I would need to collect my luggage. This was incorrect.
Professional, courteous, expedient and helpful service.
Your service was recommended and I was very impressed with the service by Oli. Will be using you again. Thank you for all your help.
Everything went smoothly
Gary was very helpful with our Canada trip which included 4 destinations and 3 train journeys. He assisted us from the onset, providing useful information and suggestions on hotels for each stop and also was very helpful with the various flight options available. He was always on hand for any queries we had from the time of booking and up to our departure date. His knowledge and suggestions ensured our trip was thoroughly enjoyable.
Thanks for everything, perfect!
The return trip home was terrible but none of it was caused or contributed to by DialAFlight. In fact, you were very helpful on the emergency telephone. I recommend Roy, Ashley and Claire to everyone.
Contact, communication and arrangements were excellent
Excellent as always. I would strongly recommend DialAFlight to anyone
Fantastic service
Michael was brilliant - nothing too much trouble - he sorted everything hotels and connections
Not a criticism but please note July 1 is Canada Day so Niagara area is particularly busy. We checked out at 11am but weren’t picked up until 1:45 …pick up could have been earlier even if we spent longer at Toronto airport…which was a great airport in our opinion.
All the staff and especially Shelley go out of their way to organise great holidays. I have booked a few now with DialAFlight and will be booking more
I love DialAFlight and recommend it to all my friends and relatives. It’s so easy just to pick up the phone and within seconds there is a friendly person who listens to the sort of things you want from your holiday and then organises the whole thing perfectly for you.
Biggest plus was getting better connections and price than I was finding online, that and a friendly voice and advice over booking
Everything worked like clockwork. Any questions I had were answered quickly and gave me complete confidence. Thank you to Lewis and team
I'll always ask for the same operator. Top service
Sydney can be summed up by one of its best loved sports - surfing. This city is athletic, daring, dazzlingly sunny and always a breath of fresh air.
We Britons have a long affinity with Australia but it's only when you arrive in Sydney that you appreciate why Charles Darwin said in 1836 that 'ancient Rome in her imperial grandeur would not have been ashamed of such an offering'.
For all Australia's vast spaces and extraordinary wildlife, it is Sydney that leads the way when it comes to iconic architecture, world-class dining and unabashed rivalry with the Old Country. Still, its renowned love of the outdoors is everywhere. On morning runs from our extraordinarily well-sited waterside hotel, the Park Hyatt, we spot power-walking retirees and joggers out in force.
Exertion is a pleasure when it involves such scenery as the spiky Sydney Opera House, the parakeet-filled Royal Botanical Gardens and the smart gastro-wharf at Woolloomooloo.
For less cosmopolitan views, you can walk Sydney's coastline and get some idea of just why Port Jackson is one of the world's greatest harbours. Zipping about on one of the many inexpensive ferries or catching a pricier water taxi from Circular Quay West is a good place to start.
This will take you from the swish waterfront to where you can follow a coastal path wending from Spit to Manly - named after the indigenous manly bearing, according to my guide Ian Wells, of Sydney Coast Walks.
Highlights of our walk include ceremonial aboriginal engravings, more than 1,000 years old, the view of the gap through which British sailors entered the harbour in 1788, and a curious water dragon lizard, which joins us for lunch.
Next day we guide ourselves from one of Sydney's landmarks - show-stopping Bondi Beach - along the Pacific facing east coast to Coogee. It's Anzac Day, a national holiday, and everyone is celebrating, surfing, swimming, loafing. We have a splurge of prawns in the Bucket List cafe behind the beach.
It's an easy walk to Coogee, but we take all afternoon, enjoying the skilful paddle boarders and the swimming pools built into the rocks.
Climbing Sydney Harbour Bridge is hard to beat if you have the head for it. A £20 bet that I won't make it (I'm scared of heights) keeps me on track - just about.
Combining a city break in Sydney with a couple of days in the Blue Mountains, a mere 45 miles away, is a wonderful way to see just some of Australia's hugely varied landscapes. As we toil up Bell's Road, which links Richmond to Mount Tomah, Bell and Mount Victoria, it sounds like the car has developed a worrying whistle. Not at all. It's the bell birds, which make the most enchanting tinkling tones – even more so when we hear them in situ at Emirates One & Only Wolgan Valley Resort.
Surrounded by prairie grasses, rocky plateaus and forest, it's a fine base. We hear a wombat outside our room at night. Wallabies and kangaroos are just a short cycle ride away, and you can take dusk or night safaris.
On our way back to the city, we stop off to gasp at the Three Sisters rock formation in Katoomba. The Queen came here on her 1954 tour and you can gaze at the three rocks from what is called Elizabeth Lookout.
Another great excursion from Sydney is to the Hunter Valley, home to more than 150 wineries and awash with gourmet restaurants and spa retreats.
This area of lush rolling hills is a two-hour drive north of Sydney. While wine tastings are the big draw, the vineyards also organise an array of events throughout the year, including topline concerts and food, music and art festivals.
Also big attractions are rides on the Hunter Valley steam trains and scenic cruises on the Hunter River.
Our final Australian adventure is a seaplane ride in a Cessna Caravan, arcing down Sydney's west coast to Jonah's restaurant overlooking Whale Beach.
After thudding across the waves, we are off into clear sky, looping across the city, which gleams gloriously below. It is a fitting and thrilling final hurrah.
