Highly recommend
Helpful, quick to respond, nothing too much trouble. Have used DialAFlight before and will definitely use them again
Great service as always. Also appreciated the pre-flight calls - nice personal touch!
Happy you managed to change our holiday as there were name problems. Will book with you again
Charlie was great as always
Trust Danny - he is always friendly, efficient and helpful.
Very good, very helpful, kept us well informed, would use again.
Fabulous staff from check-in onwards
Conrad was a great help - I’d contact him again for my next flights
Over the years we have used DialAFlight and they have always been wonderful. On our last trip to vist family in the US during Covid they couldn't have supported us more. They kept in touch whilst we were there and immediately got in touch when our flight home was changed by the airline to a day later.
Agreeable, knowledgeable staff. No traps, no bull, just good advice and efficiency
Will be booking with you for Florida in June
I would like to thank Manny who goes above and beyond. Nothing is a problem for him.
Thanks to all at DialAFlight - so helpful and polite. I have travelled with you for many years
Jessica was brilliant. She helped every step of the way, and beyond. Certainly would go through her again, plus recommend her
Excellent service from start to finish. Have used several times. Sarah is our main contact and is always helpful and knowledgable as is the rest of the team. How it should be done!
DialAFlight did an excellent job and I have recommended your service to my family and friends
Top class service from start to finish especially during this pandemic. Everything went to plan
Been booking with DialAFlight for many years. Always had excellent service and feel safe with the company
Karl has been fantastic - he made the whole process seamless
Chris was amazingly helpful. 5 star assistance. Thank you, I will be back.
Very helpful when I needed to phone from the USA for some advice about Covid regulations.
Marvellous service.
Excellent service by Jack and his team as always
Despite a great many challenges Niall dealt with all sorts of problems with humour and patience - great company!
Always a first class service from Dale and the rest of the crew.
I cannot think of any company that would have been so proactive in keeping us informed of changes during our month long holiday. Damian was very helpful and answered questions and concerns very promptly.
Thank you for your help in navigating the COVID testing labrinth. That was more complex than the last time I flew. I would recommend the ExpressTest group that opperates from the airport, as trying to patch together the three different tests from different companies was difficult to manage. They are competitive and available in the terminal at Heathrow
Clark, our travel guy is amazing! Always gives us what we want and at a fantastic price. Cannot beat the expertise he has and ideas for better hotels or air seats. Highly recommend DialAFlight
The advice and the attention to detail during a very difficult time for the travel industry has been exceptional. It has given us the confidence to travel again. Thank you Joe
Sitting on San Francisco's famous Pier 39, sauce-stained children slurp huge bowls of clam chowder. In the background, Alcatraz's forbidding, mist-shrouded silhouette rises from the ocean.
The nearby gift shop is doing a roaring trade, churning out striped underpants and replica prison-issue toiletries bearing the tag line, 'don't drop the soap', all to a soundtrack of the pier's famous blubbery, barking sea lions.
Fresh crabs are available to buy from vendors in Fisherman's Wharf
WHERE TO FIRST
But the waterfront – with its many fresh crab restaurants – will soon look very different. The green-fingered team behind New York's urban High Line has now turned its attention to the Presidio – a beautiful, sprawling park overlooking the bay.
The tunnels burrowing through it will soon form the base of a spectacular, 14-acre park known as Tunnel Tops. When it opens in 2019, there will be beautiful views of the bay and meadows filled with fragrant wildflowers.
During 1967's Summer of Love, pier workers fought their way through crowds of garland-waving hippies who gathered here to shout about the Vietnam War.
THEN AND NOW
Now, more than 50 years on, hipsters have replaced hippies in Haight-Ashbury. A handful of psychedelic shops filled with tie-dye are squeezed between boutiques and organic cafes.
The closest encounter I have with a possible hippy is when I crouch down to take a picture of an enormous rainbow-themed piece of street art and accidentally disturb a dreadlocked local dozing in a doorway.
Take a winding walk on picturesque Lombard Street
At Pork Store Cafe, a 40-year-old Haight Street institution famous for its huge breakfasts, I meet Amanda, a local, who tells me how the area's beautiful, Victorian, pastel-hued houses are being snapped up (and lovingly refurbished) by dotcom billionaires. She complains that prices have rocketed.
As I cycle towards the city centre, a smiling skateboarder shouts his encouragement and speeds past me – uphill. I realise his skateboard is battery-powered. I recall my chat with Amanda and wonder if it's Mark Zuckerberg or someone similar.
MOMENTARY ESCAPISM
On the recommendation of a friend, I stop by Hotel Zetta in downtown San Francisco. Since last spring, it's been home to the world's first hotel-based virtual reality room. It's free to try – those in need of a moment of escapism (without the mind-altering drugs) can simply walk off the street into the padded room and slip on the headset.
I do so and find myself standing atop a shipwreck, one of several colourful worlds to be explored.
VIRTUAL SIGHTSEEING
Neon fish swarm around me and when I turn around, I'm face-to-face with a huge, blinking whale. The next moment, I'm in a mountainous valley (apparently it's modelled on the landscape of Washington State).
The cable car system is an icon of San Francisco
Despite being just metres away from the rumbling trams, I can wander to a cliff edge and peer into a valley so deep that my stomach flips.
On my final night, I check out China Live, one of the city's newest restaurants. The walls are lined with hand-painted tiles showing local landmarks, such as the Transamerica Pyramid.
CHINATOWN
I sit at one of the communal tables and try jellyfish for the first time (it's salty, rubbery and delicious) with a potent, dragon fruit tea-infused cocktail.
Golden Gate Park: one of San Francisco's greatest treasures
Chinatown borders North Beach, a bay-side neighbourhood with a huge Italian community. I cycle home past Italian flags painted on lamp posts and delis blaring opera music.
In a nearby park, Chinese women perform perfectly choreographed tai chi routines near students making the most of California's decision to legalise marijuana. Suddenly, that Summer of Love doesn't seem quite so far away.
Amazingly, it is simple old-fashioned service that sets us apart from other travel firms. And yes, we really do answer the phone within 5 seconds!
