Your calls always answered within 5 rings.
Leo is wonderful! He always finds me great places to stay and often at late notice. DialAFlight have never let me down.
We had a couple of minor hitches during our holiday which Alfie at DialAFlight dealt with from his end which is why we use them!
Always a great comfort to know you are there to assist. Thanks Claire and the team. Will be using you again
Outstanding service as always!
Sean was amazingly thorough and made sure my trip was just what I wanted. It made a wonderful break for me
Pete and Harvey give amazing customer service. I wish other companies did the same!
Small suggestion: Specify if car hire is on airport or another location clearly in the itinerary. Source additional competitive providers for transfers. Overall Jenson is an absolute superstar!
Noah was extremely helpful and informative which was very reassuring throughout the booking process and again during our holiday. Thank you so much - we will definitly recommend DialAFlight to our friends and family.
Cameron, Gino and Amy are all so excellent in everything they do for us. A fabulous team and experts. We never go anywhere else
As always excellent from Bradley. After having to miss my original trip due to ill health he had it all rearranged within days. Highly recommend.
After never doing separate flights before I was quite nervous but shouldn't have been. Stan was fantastic, he answered all my many emails to put my mind at ease.
Troy was excellent as usual with top service provided.
Gino was fantastic from the start to finish
As usual efficient, fast and accurate. Thanks
Organised flights for 9 of us to Malaga, all without any problems. I’ll use DialAFlight again
Flights booked and transfers to and from the airport to our accommodation all went very smoothly thanks to Annabelle
Thank you for your excellent service.
All very smooth with logistics and flights. Hotel also good and well positioned in Barcelona for our needs with a young child - close to the zoo and aquarium.

Great trip. Beautifully put together by my booking agent
Fantastic customer service from Jed and his team. Will definitely be using this service again.
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.
