Trip went great thanks to Vinnie for his excellent service again.
Colin and his colleagues went over and above to ensure I got onto the flight I needed, renewing my booking whilst I needed time securing insurance cover , and steering me in the right direction to find insurers I could use
Lloyd and his team are always helpful and reliable
Everyone in the team was really helpful.
As usual, top quality service from selection of best option through to personal attention to ensure all arrangements are in place.
Excellent service from Matt. Thank you
Jeff is incredibly helpful and efficient!
Really happy with the service from start to the end. Thanks to all for making this so easy for me - a happy customer.
Very helpful, great to have point of contact in uncertain times
Joey and his team were very professional and kept in contact regularly throughout our booking process. The team was even courteous enough to walk us through all the intricacies of flying during the pandemic.
Easy and excellent booking from Noah. I would recommend him to friends and colleagues
Jenson, as ever, has been highly efficient and so helpful in enabling this trip to happen at all during these uncertain times. He's kept us informed along the way and we're very grateful. We will certainly come back, as we have done over the past 10 yrs of booking through him, and have always been nothing less than confident in what he's offered knowing that his options are well chosen and we're always given nothing less than a great service.
Amazing service. Kept me informed as flights kept being changed by the airline. Great personal service.
Watch out for airline seats that seem the same size as others but are actually smaller and awkwardly placed. The seat I ended up in was off centre.
A huge thank you to Jessica and Howard. We had a wonderful trip. Planned well in advance we had to go to them a few times for adjustments and they were helpful with advice on bookings with reimbursement due to Covid uncertainties. The flights all worked, the rental car arrangement too and being able to make the reservations with a deposit and pay balance closer was also a benefit.
Gave me all the time and attention I needed. Thank you
Niall is brilliant: incredibly friendly, efficient, and professional. He also saved me lots of money. I can’t rate him highly enough.
Zac did a fabulous job putting multiple international flights and rental cars together. Super job, as he always does
Staff are always polite, friendly and helpful
Anthony is always so helpful
I had a one hour transfer at Heathrow which my agent changed to a six hour so I didn't miss it but I got there in time for the 1 hr and having to wait in the airport was uncomfortable.
Generally very good, no issues other than flight delays with Delta
Incredibly helpful as always
You are the ONLY travel agent I would trust! You are terrific and do the best possible for your customers. I have recommended you at least 3 times since my trip.
Fantastic company, staff very helpful and you get a personal experience. Would fully recommend. Had to change flights a few times for my son, they did this with ease and the experience has been a positive one.
You were amazing during a very sad and stressful time. You were able to make all the necessary changes to my trip to allow me to spend my dad's last days in hospice with him. I will be forever grateful.
Raj helped take the stress out of planning my trip.
Once again, excellent service from Gareth and his team.
DialAFlight does what it says! The staff are very helpful and I would definitely use and recommend them to my friends and colleagues
Amy was the most helpful and accommodating travel agent I have ever dealt with. Due to both personal circumstances and the impact of COVID-19 the travel dates had to be changed numerous times and Amy immediately produced solutions on every occasion. I will definitely use DialAFlight in the future and have no hesitation in recommending to others.
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.
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!
Check out the reviews on Trustpilot and the word ‘service’ appears again and again. And you’ll find many reviews from customers saying they wasted hours trying to plan a holiday themselves before calling us - often on the advice of a friend - only to find we could offer numerous options not available online, which also saved them money.
Our team of 300 travel managers has been arranging tailor-made holidays for over 40 years and we believe no one does it better. Judge for yourself.
