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!
Who doesn't daydream about sailing on their own private yacht to the most secluded coves in the Caribbean? But cruising?
In my mind, cruising was the preserve of a senior generation who enjoyed being transported in their thousands in a floating block of flats to a number of different tourist hotspots.
And that image stayed with me until the elegant four-masted motor yacht Windstar came over the horizon and into view. It quickly tipped any preconceived notions about what it is to take a cruise holiday on its head.
Before joining the Windstar, my mother and I spent a lovely night in Barbados - to acclimatise to the balmy weather of the Caribbean, you understand.
Just 30 minutes from the port of Bridgetown - home to luxury liners and international cruise companies - sits Fairmont Royal Pavilion a perfect hotel hideaway.
The hotel is much favoured by return visitors, and having sampled its delights, I wouldn't take much convincing to enjoy a second stay.
After a refreshing dip in the aqua-blue sea, a couple of pina colada cocktails and a dinner of fresh seafood, we began to feel human again after the long-haul flight from London.
At Bridgetown harbour there are humble wooden boats, there are grander ships - and then there's the regal Windstar.
Now I don't know my port from my starboard when it comes to sailing terminology, but I do know that the reason this 440ft motor yacht is breathtaking is quite simply her sails.
Step aboard and you feel that you're in a different era, a feeling confirmed by the sight of the splendid teak decking, which makes you want to start every day with a game of quoits.
After exploring the sumptuous cabin that would be our home for the next week, we joined the other passengers on deck as we sailed away to Vangelis's theme tune to the film 1492: Conquest Of Paradise, a fitting melody to match the stirring setting.
The particular paradise we were setting sail to conquer came in the form of the Windward Islands - St Lucia, Grenada and St Vincent - on a cruise that promised to uncover the Caribbean's lesser known islands.
To be gently rocked to sleep each evening by the waves and wake up at a new island each morning feels more like time-travelling than a holiday at sea. And not knowing what sight is going to greet you as you throw back the curtains is incredibly exciting.
To work up an appetite before breakfast, we could take a body-stretching yoga or pilates class, or else just settle for a brisk walk on deck, which always comes with a beautiful azure-blue view.
One day we dropped anchor at the idyllic 44-islet Pigeon Island on St Lucia before a tender swept us across to this verdant national park. We clambered up Signal Hill, which provides stunning views across to Martinique, before treating ourselves to an ice-cold beer and kingfish roti.
Next we headed for the spectacular Spice Island of Grenada, where we could participate in anything from scuba-diving to river-tubing, and golf to sampling rum. The island is known for its cocoa, with chocolate factory tours offering a particularly aromatic insight into how this lush green island trades the fruits of its lands.
On another occasion, the Windstar crew swept us up from Princess Margaret Beach in tiny Bequia. It was at times like this that we really did feel like royalty returning to our own private yacht. The fact that the 99 guests on board were attended to by a discreet yet congenial crew of 99 might have had something to do with that. It's hard to argue with a ratio of 1:1.
Exemplary service and comfort are one thing but the intimacy - and smiling crew - was what really made this trip so special.
Executive chef Budhi Thakur runs a tight ship in the galley, and to savour the vast array of gastronomic masterpieces - from caviar to the most stylish BBQ you'll ever attend - that he and his team of ten chefs manage to produce from the tiny kitchen is incredible.
Windstar? This vessel could easily be renamed Michelin Star. I've always fancied the idea of running away to sea and now I've found the perfect place on which to have such an adventure. And my mum would happily be my shipmate too.
It's got four masts, it's gleaming white, it's luxurious from stern to bow - and it's called Windstar.
