Your calls always answered within 5 rings.
Michelle is excellent
Everything DialAFlight did was perfect. Pity, but there was little snow, so many of the things we booked , husky rides etc, were cancelled.
Avoid Birmingham International Airport if you can. It is simply dreadful.
You were excellent. British Airways was awful.
Very efficient as always
We have been using DialAFlight for years and they never fail to give anything other than first class service. Huge thanks to Edward who once again pulled out all the stops to help book a diverted route due to sanctions and also bringing my wife's return flight forward due to biometric card changes. All done over the telephone .BRILLIANT.
We’re always kept informed with everything regarding travel updates and changes. Spot on service.
The airline said they didn’t know that we were taking firearms and it wasn’t on their system in T2 at check-in
There seems to be a lack of communication for wheelchair requirements by BA. When we booked in at LHR they were not aware of the 2 wheelchair requests. At Marseilles, I was put in a wheelchair where one side guard was missing and the tyre was rubbing on my trousers! These are issues where DialAFlight is not at fault.
We were told by BA that our flight had been cancelled - due to bad weather in the UK. We had calls and emails from DialAFlight offering help and advice.
First class support from Darryll Hansford
For the benefit of future clients it would be preferable to warn them of the additional costs involved with a US hotel stay. The Motto Hilton Times Square added considerable extra fees including a so called Destination fee.
Always live up to their profession and always helpful staff
Big thank you to Gareth and his team for their professionalism and fantastic help and support. We would not go anywhere else
As always excellent service.
Mason was extremely helpful and professional. We would certainly recommend DialAFlight to others and use them again in future.
Great service by Chris and team.
The excursion company was a little lax on information
I always trust you with my travel arrangements.
I'm not a seasoned traveller but you got me to my destination and back despite uncertainty in my own changing requirements.
Super service as always - keep up this amazing work
It is a great company to do business with. I would not use anyone else. Very professional and helpful.
Claire Doherty has helped me personally over a number of years. Whatever I’m booking, whether that’s a long haul flight or a hire car, I get the same great service, good advice and attention regardless. Knowing there will be someone at the end of a phone if you need help is priceless and when I missed my flight home once I was able to get help in the middle of the night. You can’t ask for more.
excellent service at a good price
Fraser has been incredible throughout and I would most definitely recommend DialAFlight to friends and family! We had the most amazing trip to Lapland! Fraser was highly informative and easily contactable throughout and assisted me with amending my booking due to personal circumstances. Thank you so much!
Consistently great service from DialAFlight. Ian has been looking after our holiday arrangements for many years. Highly recommended - we tell all our friends about him
Fantastic agent who was thorough and thoughtful through the whole process. Will definitely use Marie again and recommend to all my friends.
Great to be able to get through on the phone so quickly when there is a problem.
As always our trip was perfectly organised by Peter Smith.
Abbie went above and beyond to ensure my solo trip went smoothly. I discovered on check in that I had been given a resort credit which I gratefully used for my spa session. I was unexpectedly allocated a sea facing room which was amazing.
There is so much more to Mallorca than Magaluf. I had never been to the largest of the Balearic Islands before heading to picturesque Port de Soller and, admittedly, prior to my visit, the first (and only) thing I associated with Mallorca was the infamous resort town.
However, from the picturesque hill-top location of the Jumeirah Port Soller Hotel and Spa, which is nestled among the Tramuntana mountain range, you'd be hard-pressed to believe you're on the same planet, never mind the same island.
Just a 30-minute drive north from Palma Airport, this five-star hotel houses 121 sea or mountain facing rooms spread across 11 buildings. All boast a private balcony or terrace, complete with a cushioned sunbed to take utmost advantage of the sea views.
The casual bistro specialises in seafood and regional tapas, including several varieties of paella, but it's the location - at the highest point of the resort - that is its most noteworthy feature.
Book in for supper to enjoy the sunset views over the Mediterranean. The resort's Cap Roig is a more formal affair known for its fresh local seafood and impressive tasting menu that changes seasonally.
While it may be tempting to lounge by one of the hotel's two infinity pools, a 10-minute walk down the hill leads you to the small harbourfront town of Port de Soller, home to the only beach of note along Mallorca's north west coast.
There's a promenade lined with cafes, touristy shops and plenty of water sport and climbing rental facilities.
The area's known for its cycling routes, one of the more famous being the Coll de Soller, which crosses the Tramuntana and connects Palma with the port of Soller. In fact, the resort of Alcudia in the north is a favourite of Britain's pro cycling team, Team Sky, during the winter months due to its challenging landscape.
While I'm the type of person who prefers an exercise bike to a brutal uphill climb, my travelling partner did - successfully, I might add - take on the 38-mile ride, which included 55 switchbacks and six miles of incline.
The area is also a great base for walks and hikes, such as the hour-long trail that takes you to the Cap Gros lighthouse, offering panoramic bay views. For those who prefer to go further afield, there are plenty of tour companies offering Tramuntana mountain treks, both in organised groups and privately guided walks.
On Saturdays, a gentler walk will lead you to Soller town centre where you can take advantage of the extensive pop-up marketplace. Don't want to walk? A tram runs along the promenade to town, about three miles away.
Until mid-afternoon, you'll find everything from jewellery to local artisan goods and fruit - the area is famed for its Navel and Canoneta oranges. In both Port de Soller and Soller, there are also plenty of al fresco dining options available too. And, conveniently, Jumeirah runs a regular shuttle service into town.
Another highlight of the sprawling Jumeirah Port Soller is the Talise Spa which boasts a hydrotherapy pool and ice cave. There are regionally-focused treatments too that give a nod to the citrus groves, almonds and olive oil native to the area.
One thing's for sure: a stay here will banish any preconceived notions you may have once had about the infamous Spanish island. And, for the record, I still have not been to Magaluf.
