Your calls always answered within 5 rings.
Excellent service as usual
Owen and the team were excellent - our requests were met and we were very well looked after.
Everything went smoothly as usual. In particular Edward found us a really lovely boutique hotel which wasn’t available on any of the usual booking websites and at a competitive price.
Great holiday!
Lewis did a great job, thank you
Great service before and during the holiday. Jarvis Allen was a pleasure to deal with and his service was exemplary .
We'd like to thank Des for all his help including online check in for us which was very helpful. It's always good to know we can contact DialAFlight if we encounter any problems.
All of your staff are so good. Thank you
Good service from the start. Grateful that two rooms next door to each other were also followed up on.

Cameron is a super star
Massive thank you to DialAFlight for making everything so easy and efficient. Can’t recommend enough
Thankyou so much and we are looking forward to speaking with you to help us book more flights in the future.
You get the greatest service from these guys. Particular mention for Claire Doherty who I’ve dealt with on and off for many years and one of her team members Jenson. They are always at the end of a phone or an email if you need them - and I have needed them a few times. They never make you feel like your question is silly or that you’re a pest!
Attention to detail post booking and immediately prior to flight date was most reassuring. Thank you Dominic and all your team.
Harvey Edwards was brilliant. A huge help to me
Everything was perfect, as always
Thanks again Billy Gardner
As always with you, we flew to Tenerife and had no problems going or returning. Thanks Teddy, for all you do for us.
Very helpful service

Everything went smoothly - as always with DialAFlight! Flights and car hire excellent.
Mid-afternoon and the sun is at shirt-sleeve strength, the air scented with shrimp, garlic and sherry and every inch of the Plaza del Salvador is occupied. A public holiday? No – merely Seville as Friday ripens into the weekend.
For the full spectrum of the city's pleasures in a weekend, opt for one of the newer, smaller hotels near this central square. Hotels such as the Alminar, where manager Francisco and his team will let you in on the Seville's secrets.
Santa Cruz, once the Jewish quarter, is east from here and home to the baroque splendour of the Salvador church. There is little traffic, just the occasional car or waspish moped. It is a bewildering tangle of fountains, courtyards and secluded gardens.
The Giralda, the bell tower, spot-lit at night, which crowns the cathedral, is a helpful marker: use it as a guide and you can wander, perhaps to Calle Mateos Gago, where the pavements overflow with tables, chairs and orange trees. For artistic intensity, head to Casa de la Memoria on Calle Cuna for flamenco of almost spiritual possession; heels machine-gunning down on bare floorboards.
Back in a roof-terrace room at the Alminar, you have a private view of the cathedral, just 50 yards away. An empire of a building, its dark interior has an altar drenched in gold and a tomb supposedly containing the remains of Christopher Columbus.
Two minutes' walk to the south is the Alcazar, the royal palace, which requires a full afternoon. Its toy fort castellated walls belie the decorative intricacy within including colonnaded courtyards and regal chambers with stucco friezes and azulejo tiles. The gardens boast palms, peacocks and an hourly water-powered organ recital.
Squeeze in also Casa Pilatos, one of the Duchess of Medinaceli's many residences. There is an El Greco in the dining room, a Tintoretto in the tower room and, most memorably, a painting of a breastfeeding, bearded woman, with her husband looking haggard at her shoulder.
The Sevillanos do justice to Sunday lunch, dining until at least 5pm – so there is time to digest the feast of your experiences at an outside table at Modesto in Santa Cruz or La Fabrica in the Alameda area before flying home.
