Your calls always answered within 5 rings.
Thank you for your continued service to me and my family. You always understand what we ask and do a good job.
It would be useful if information about where to go to get rental cars for the specific airport could be provided. Signs in LAX were few and there was nobody manning the information desk.
I would personally swerve the Hilton Gardens Jackson as the area is awful and very run down, derelict buildings and boarded up shops and cafes
Reliable travel company. Great comms
I have used DialAFlight on many occasions and have always received excellent service. I would recommend them to anyone
You have been booking my flights for about 30 years - have now decided never to fly again - it is for the young and has lost the glamour we had last century!
Sean was amazing. He is so helpful, cheerful and informative. I look forward to booking my next flight with DialAFlight
Ordered GF meals not provided
All went well apart from the last flight from Phoenix to Heathrow. The seats that you had prebooked for us had been changed. I complained to the cabin crew and after some time we were given seats with extra legroom
Liam was excellent and a credit to your company
Excellent customer service as always
Used DialAFlight for years. Great service.
All went smoothly and you could answer all our questions. How wonderful to have someone respond quickly when you phone and promptly deal with your question!
Riley is always very helpful and efficient including making changes to our hire car while we were abroad and getting cheaper rates than we could find locally.
Would like to thank Charlotte for providing one amazing memorable trip, we will definitely be booking again next year
We had some unanticipated problems but they were successfully resolved. Had you not been at the end of a phone the whole experience would have been been immensely more stressful. As it was, our holiday was very rewarding and enjoyable
Simply the best!
Dexter was extremely helpful throughout
Every aspect of our flights and hotel completely covered
Excellent service, always kept informed and easy to deal with. Thank you DialAFlight
Ten out of ten again!
I would like to thank DialAFlight for helping get the best deals for my holiday and their patience when trying to change connecting flights.
Hadn’t been to USA for 7 years but we have always used DialAFlight for our bookings and now both our daughters do as well. Always excellent service
You found us great flights and a perfect hotel for our recent trip to Washington DC. Thank you
Another great trip, thank you Gareth, Troy and DialAflight. Your support in the planning of our road trip and while we were away was great and provided reassurance throughout. The DialAFlight app is also very useful and made organisation of our holiday plans and details very easy.
All good thanks
Jerry is always very helpful
Thanks again to Teddy. I would never book a holiday or flight without his help and experience.
Damian and his team are always 1st class and reliable, we'll continue to plan trips with them as they are so good
Great recommendations - hotel was fab. Everything worked out well. Thank you again Natasha.
I've always longed to visit the Florida Keys because it sounds so romantic. I'm a huge fan of the 1948 movie Key Largo, which starred Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall. And of course, the area has a strong connection with Ernest Hemingway - the author lived on Key West.
Fans still turn up in Key Largo every October for the annual Humphrey Bogart Film Festival. One highlight is a chance of a cruise on the fully restored African Queen, the original boat from John Huston's 1951 film of the same name starring Bogart and Katharine Hepburn.
Hemingway fans aren't forgotten either. The annual Hemingway Lookalike competition takes place in July at Key West bar Sloppy Joe's. An entire bar full of Hemingway clones sounds slightly frightening but each to their own.
My actor husband Trevor and I had long ago decided we wanted to visit the Keys, but never seemed to get around to it. However, a pleasure deferred is a pleasure intensified.
After our plane touched down in Miami, we rented a car and headed south. It may not look far on the map but from Miami to Key West is around 150 miles - a three-hour drive because the road isn't brilliant.
We were based at Sunset Key Cottages, reached from the Westin Key West Resort and Marina.
At the Westin we were ushered aboard a little ferry and whisked across to the amazing Sunset Key. It was a fabulous away-from-it-all place but had the advantage of the bustling delights of Key West on its doorstep.
NOSTALGIA
We immediately fell in love with Key West and its coloured clapboard houses. For many young Americans, this is a vibrant party town.
Main Street at night is a delight because so much goes on: music pouring from crowded bars and the occasional Hemingway lookalike waiting for his big day!
During the day there are several interesting places to visit. I enjoyed the Little White House, the holiday home of US President Harry Truman, famous for his remark 'the buck stops here'.
It was on his watch that atomic bombs were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki - the responsibility must have been immense. Another unmissable place is the Ernest Hemingway Home and Museum. The writer lived here for ten years during one of his most prolific writing periods. The main attraction here is its 50 six-toed cats.
Hemingway was given a white six-toed cat by a ship's captain, and some of the cats who live in the museum grounds are descendants of that original feline, named Snow White.
There is also a good Tennessee Williams exhibition in Key West - the author had a home here for 34 years. It was in Key West that he is believed to have completed the final draft of A Streetcar Named Desire.
For most of the time, however, we were content to bask in serenity on our 27-acre island, which was a naval base before it was acquired by the Westin. It was a little piece of paradise.
ISLAND PARADISE
One minute we were in Key West, with its tourist bustle and huge cruise ships - the big Disney liners a particular feature - but when we crossed back to our island, all the noise disappeared.
We had an idyllic white-sand beach and azure waters. It was the best five days we've ever had. Sublime. Watching the sun go down is a big event in Key West - everybody stops to watch. And when it got dark we loved looking up at the stars.
After our Key West stay we drove back to Miami. We were staying in Miami Beach, at the very southern end of the resort. We met some really cool people.
One of my great pleasures was swimming in the ocean - so warm and silky. I'm a Liverpudlian and Liverpudlians have a special love for the US - Liverpool used to the main port for travel to America. Our city is where all the Cunarders used to sail from.
If you're staying in Miami, I would recommend dining at the fantastic Seaspice on the Miami River.
They serve what is described as a 'globally inspired menu' featuring a raw bar and dishes ranging from wood-fired casseroles to Dover sole and branzino, a type of seabass. The views over the city and the river are also very special.
A lot of people think that Florida means Disney World or the start of a cruise, but if you're prepared to search a little further you'll discover that there's much, much more.
