I like that you contact your customers without prompting. It gave me a sense of security on a big trip.
Ryan was brilliant - I do recommend you to all my friends
I have a disabled husband and Paula and Peter made sure everything worked. Excellent service and advice.
As we stopped off in Singapore for a couple of days on the way to Sydney we were surprised we hadn’t been informed that Singapore now require an electronic type visa entry to be completed.
Once again Gareth was faultless
Samuel kept me informed and helped when it was needed
The food on Malaysian Airways definitely needs improving
Problem with our flight seating but it was out of your control. Otherwise a great holiday
Booked with Des which we have done for a lot of years. Service was great.
Qantas wasn’t the best, a few problems on the flights and trying to check in. Air crew not as good as some other airlines.
What your staff did was excellent from start to finish. Unfortunately Emirates Airline failed in a couple of aspects. In flight service was fine. 14 hours from Dubai to Sydney with seat which would not recline was bad. Their lactose free meals were awful.
Prompt and helpful - every time!
Time between flights just 1 hour. Usually you give me 2 hours. Flight landed 20 minutes late so had mad dash for connection. Not good at our particular age. Just made it.
The staff are always very helpful. I have used DialAFlight a number of times
As always a great service provided by a superb professional team.
The usual great service on all levels including pre-flight arrangements, alterations to flight schedules before departure and reassurance that contactable during my several weeks abroad. All arranged through Lucas Moore. Many thanks
Very helpful aranging early flights to return us back home to UK to visit my 93-year-old mother in hospital after a fall. Highly recommended, great service.
Edward was so easy to talk to and really looked after me, finding earlier flights due to a bereavement. He was on the ball and worked with the time differences and my lack of internet on my road trip. He upgraded me for a reasonable fee and it made the end of my trip so very comfortable!
We were helped in organising our trip to Australia and Abu Dhabi by Shelley Dimes, who guided us patiently through every detail of the travel and hotel arrangements. She organised our seat bookings, car transfers and hotel accommodation and we have had the very best holiday experience-
Keeley was extremely helpful and efficient, we found the whole process very straightforward and enjoyed our trip very much.
Frustrating that Qantas changed the flight and then reinstated it, but then we could not pre-reserve our seats, which meant that we didn’t know whether we could have 2 seats together. The Qantas planes looked tired, with certain items not working properly. The Qantas staff were very pleasant and so were the DialAFlight staff. Thank you for your assistance in organising our flights.
Just returned from a 4 week holiday which I booked through Kennedy - a wonderful trouble free experience. I would recommend to anyone.
As always great service and experience.
Really good service and communication from Colin Barlow and his team.
Never used DialAFlight before but Gavin was so helpful and patient. Will definitely book again.
All arrangements worked smoothly, thanks so much!
Connie was great - kept up to date
Emirates chauffeur service - for the second year when picking up in Sydney they used wrong mobile number to make contact. I asked them to phone Australian mobile number but failed to do so.
Latest Singapore immigration requirements problematical
Keeley was extremely helpful from the start. Her recommendations for hotel accommodation were great, especially the Fairmont in Dubai. All the flights were fine. We had no issues and thank you for that
You don't have to score a number one album to holiday like a superstar. As many well-heeled Aussies know, the uber-luxurious privately-owned Hamilton Island is a fabulously picturesque place to get away from it all – and is conveniently located just off the Queensland coast.
HAMILTON ISLAND
Hamilton, by the Great Barrier Reef, is also the largest of the inhabited Whitsunday Islands, known for their pristine whitesand beaches and crystal clear water. Taylor Swift is among its greatest fans. Along with her family and 125 members of her crew on tour in 2016, she spent several days at Hamilton's famed Qualia hotel and resort - and she took the opportunity to explore the nearby reef.
We arrived on Hamilton Island after an overnight Reefsleep on a pontoon in the middle of the sea, so we were eager to hit the island's many gorgeous beaches as quickly as possible.
LUXURY ACCOMMODATION
However, we first visited Qualia, the island's most exclusive resort, on the northernmost point. It boasts a selection of luxurious villas such as Beach House, Windward Pavilion and Leeward Pavilion. Beach House has an elegant open-air 10-person dining area and a private infinity-edge swimming pool. Designed in an airy open-plan style, the living room has a panoramic vista of the Coral Sea.
The word Qualia means 'a collection of deeper sensory experiences' - and the hotel lives up to its name. Crafted f rom timber, sandstone and glass, it has 60 private pavilions, all discreetly hidden away behind lush greenery and strategic gates.
Fine dining options are available at Long Pavilion or Pebble Beach, where we enjoyed a feast of fresh seafood that included chilled king prawns, local reef fish, seared scallops, oysters and grilled Whitsunday bugs. (For those who don't know, bugs are a type of lobster) Pebble Beach also has a large infinity pool and cocktail bar where concoctions such as banana coladas can be whipped up on request.
THINGS TO DO
Those sandy shores are Qualia's base for a range of watersports, so if you were ever going to opt for a sea-kayaking adventure on the Coral Sea, this is probably the place you'd want to do it Other accommodation options on Hamilton Island include the adult-only Beach Club, on Catseye Beach, which comprises 57 luxurious rooms and a childfree restaurant and lounge. We stayed at the Reef View Hotel, which offers fabulous Coral Sea views, with very comfortable rooms - and friendly cockatoos who visited the balcony daily.
On our second day on Hamilton, we took off in a golf buggy - the quickest way to get around the five square-kilometre island - to explore. The relatively unmarked roads, however, do offer a bit of a navigation challenge. Still, it was a lot easier getting up to the island's famed lookout point, One Tree Hill, this way than on foot. There's no better place to enjoy a glass of wine at sunset.
There's also a bustling marina, as well as a main street with shops, restaurants and evena nightclub. Here you can buy everything from sun cream to iced coffee - although at much higher prices than on the mainland, so stock up on aloe vera before you arrive.
SOMETHING SPECIAL
One afternoon was spent on a chartered yacht to a private beach, home to a national park and completely secluded. Snorkelling in the area is exceptional - or as an alternative diversion, at the island's Wild Life Sanctuary you can book in to have breakfast with a koala or kangaroo and be photographed with them.
But it was on the following morning that one of the most memorable moments of the trip occurred. We were invited to meet - and have a quick cuddle - with an adorable koala at the Beach Club resort. It was the perfect end to an idyllic taste of paradise – and also provided me with one of my most-liked Instagram posts of the year.
