Your calls always answered within 5 rings.
Usual top quality on my annual trip to Oz. Thanks.
We were well informed and very ably supported -will certainly use again.
My wife and I are delighted with the help provided by Steven Merralls. He patiently guided us through the planning for the trip and the bookings. Our plans worked out perfectly and we had the reassurance that if we had encountered a problem that we could contact DialAFlight for help.
Brody went above and beyond. Incredibly nice guy, excellent service.
Perfect trip for us. Will be back in touch for next trip somewhere. Thanks again.
Always satisfied with DialAFlight. Very professional, friendly and always go that one step further to ensure that the client gets what they want. Have recommended yourselves numerous times.
Amazing service from Freddie - easy to deal with and he came up with the best flight solutions for me as he really looked at all the options. 10 out of 10
Good advice on flight options. Easy check in experience. All flights on time and BA was the best choice for us. Many thanks.
Loved the ease and value of booking our holiday with you.
Owen has always been a pleasure to assist and every trip has been organised perfectly. I have recommended DialAFlight to so many friends and family.
Fantastic. Well beyond our expectations
Mark was excellent and followed through with all the information to make the flight easy and memorable. Highly recommend
Great job all round. Fitted our needs perfectly. Thank you!
We have always dealt with Natasha and found her communication and service to be brilliant.
Nicki was amazing as usual. We’ve booked through DAF for the last 15 years and simply wouldn’t use any other outlet to book our longhaul flights. Their knowledge of the aircraft, stopovers and carriers is exceptional.
Eve and any other staff members I spoke to were helpful, professional and friendly. Will definitely use DAF again.
Updates sent straight through to the app. Help given immediately when needed. Peace of mind knowing the DialAFlight team were there ready to help whatever time, day or night.
Michael was extremely helpful even after the flights were booked. So much so that I have already passed his details to two friends who were also suitably impressed. Wouldn't use anyone else now.
All went smoothly.
I like that I can call you with my questions. I prefer talking to an actual person, rather than booking online.
Not convinced I’d fly with Etihad again, but Chris delivered on every front re flights.
Rob was so helpful, reassuring, understanding and helped me through all the steps with my visa and check-in. Nothing was too much trouble. Feeling slightly apprehensive as a lone traveller he made life so much easier for my first trip in many years.
All staff friendly, polite and helpful. Recommended hotel was excellent and in a perfect location to access popular attractions.
Top quality service - will continue to use DialAFlight
Patrick helped us including whilst we were away. Fantastic service and it all went without a hitch. The app is really helpful.
Harry and the team delivered a first class service when we needed a very immediate travel solution. The reason why we have used DialAFlight for so many years !
DialAFlight are so committed to serving the customer. James and Callum really take away any hassles that come your way. Really good guys to do business with, just at the end of the phone. Highly recommend
Always very pleased with the service from DialAFlight. The staff are amazing too.
Excellent service, would definitely recommend. Ivor was efficient and dealt with every request, nothing was too much trouble. Definitely use DialAFlight again.
Very disappointed with Etihad's new rules about use of lounges for certain classes of business class fares. Which we were not informed about.
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.
