Your calls always answered within 5 rings.
When you’re paying lots of money for first class, it’s a poor show when you can't get your first, second or third choice of food. Lots of people were complaining. British Airways should do much better
American Airines had a a delay and I lost a connecting flight but all resolved in 3 hours.
First Class service and very personalised too. Thank you
Tommy Ellis was exceptional - he was patient, kind and very helpful when trying to book a flight following my father's death. I felt I was in the best hands possible during a difficult time.
Faultless holiday
Could have reminded me initially about different seats available e.g. premium economy as well as finding the cheapest seats.
Efficient as always
Everything worked out beautifully. Thank you, Lee.
Excellent booking service, unfortunately BA left one of my pieces of luggage at Heathrow and I got charged to get it to my final destination 3 days later! Not impressed...
Always there when you need them. Takes the worry out of travelling. Thank you
Joey was very friendly helpful and knowledgeable
The whole holiday was perfect - everything that was organised by youselves went like clockwork and we would certainly use you again.
I would not think twice coming back to use you guys - everything that I’ve requested was dealt with promptly and was clear in the email
Kept well informed
Christian and DialAFlight were very helpful and we had a great trip. Our room was not great when we got there but after 24 hours the hotel gave us a new one and after that it was fantastic. I would recommend DialAFlight any time. It’s a very personal experience and great help for anyone travelling around the world
A hassle free way to organise what was a fairly complicated trip.
One stop shop - everything on one phone call
DialAFlight are perfect partners for perfect holidays. We couldn’t imagine our holiday without DialAFlight.
After many years of being a client. You just get better and better. Keep it up guys. You are the best
Love DialAFlight. Daniel is so helpful and nothing seems too much trouble for him. We always book through him and he goes out of his way to find us the best fares.
Travel manager Katie Wallis was tremendous throughout, especially when a seriously delayed flight from Grenada to Gatwick meant we missed our easyJet connection to Edinburgh. One call and we were rebooked on a later flight. I have used DialAFlight over many years and have never been let down by their great service and professionalism.
Second trip booked by Ashley and again everything was organised perfectly. Great customer service from start to finish.
The person I deal with was excellent, friendly and very efficient.
Delighted with our first trip through you - already started the ball rolling for the next one.
Another great holiday through DialAFlight. Tony was superb and a great help throughout
Clear communication from start to finish. Excellent service thank you.
All good, app great addition. Thanks Sean for fantastic service
Five stars
Great advise and help from Darren Moseley
Excellent service from start to finish. Thank you to Erin especially. Very efficient and helpful. Will use and recommend to our friends and family.
Hong Kong Island to Kowloon may only be a few thousand feet across the water, but the contrast is immense; like exchanging a Savile Row suit for a worn leather jacket and scuffed Chelsea boots.
And that's no bad thing. For Kowloon is Hong Kong with its make-up and glitter peeled off: a raucous, mercantile farrago of fast food, fast fashion, fast living and slow traffic.
With freedoms for locals being eroded as Beijing ratchets up its control of Hong Kong, the markets of Kowloon, at least for now, show the rambling chaos of a freeform, unencumbered, mercantile democracy.
As somebody who despises shopping, Kowloon has long been an exception, with its markets that are an unapologetic assault on every sense. Everything you can smell and hear you can also buy, if you're prepared to haggle.
You don't need to rise early to catch the markets of Kowloon. Within one hazy, sun smeared afternoon, I eat fried pancakes filled with plump, briny oysters in the Temple Street market as a karaoke singer warbles K-pop melodies and a wizened fortune-teller attempts to usher me into her stygian gazebo.
I inhale the giddy scents of orchids, bonsai trees and roses at the Mong Kok flower market and gawp at tanks and oxygen-inflated bags filled with indolent-looking goldfish (a key element of feng shui) at the Tung Choi Street fish and reptile market.
It's not entirely necessary to eat everything on the streets, however. Tim Ho Wan (meaning 'with extra good luck') opened a decade ago and became the world's cheapest Michelin starred restaurant.
Serving up mountains of dim sum and green tea and refusing to charge customers more than £10, the restaurant now has franchises across the world.
The branch I visit in West Kowloon is certainly a bit more spick-and-span than the chaotic original shop down the road, but the food has retained its astonishing quality (and low cost) and I spend a contented hour eating turnip cake, pork buns and spring rolls with beef, mushroom and satay sauce.
Kowloon is barely four square miles and I haven't seen half its markets. I'm about to leave when I stumble onto Yuen Po, home to a bird market that is a cacophony of canaries, parrots, sparrows, magpies and parakeets housed in bamboo cages.
One shopkeeper gently chastises a parrot as it spits out a live grasshopper he tries to feed it with chopsticks. 'Diva', he says to me, pointing at the bird, in surprisingly good English. The parrot cackles a retort and turns his back on both of us.
Respite comes eventually on the tip of the peninsula. Looking out over the churning, bruise coloured waters, I admire the forest of skyscrapers across Victoria Harbour on Hong Kong Island that glitter and wink like a princess's jewellery box.
But I want to stay here; for much as HK Island is the showroom of the territory, Kowloon with its heat, pace, sweat and muscle is the engine room.
