Lewis Stewart was amazing - he was so helpful. After being scammed on a flight he put me at ease and helped me in every way. I will be dealing with him again
The connections worked out really well and there were no problems with the flights. Thank you for booking my seats. I'm vey happy with DialAFlight and Dylan and Reggie have been very supportive.
Great team and everyone is willing to provide help and support when needed.
As always a great experience from start to finish. Big thanks to Mason for making everything such a simple process. Here’s looking to the next one
As is usually the case with the travel that DialAFlight organise for me, this was a complex itinerary. On this occasion the team went over and above to sort out a hiccup with one the flights I was taking. We did this, long distance by email, and the team were very quick with their responses, sorting the problem out very satisfactorily. I'd never hesitate to recommend them.
Kieran has been amazing!
Everything was planned to precision and went smoothly. An exceptional holiday and service provided
Cannot fault this company or Jackson and his team. Brilliant, thank you.
BA flight home was delayed and I didn't get the seat I had booked and paid for, however this is something I have to take up with BA . As far as DialAFlight is concerned there is nothing whatsoever that you could have done any better than you did. Thank you for your help in organising my trip.
Everything was fine - have used DialAFlight on lots of occasions and will definitely be using you again
Good hotels in great locations. Thank you.
I would like to thank Natalie for all the help she provided in helping to organise my trip to Hong Kong. She provided all the information I needed and kept me updated as the departure date approached. Excellent service.
Fantastic service as always
Great holiday and professional service throughout. Now looking to book the next one!
I have been using your company for over 10 yrs and have no regret. Nice staff and good approach with listening skills.

Thank you for your valued service once again. I always feel assured by DialAflight wherever I go and will continue to book with your company - one of true quality.
Once again Darryll at DialAflight and his team delivered what they promised. The flight, hotel and all other information were spot on.
Perfect. 5 stars
I had a wonderful time. Brought back so many memories. Thank you
Everything went well. I can recommend Blue Beach Hotel Waduwa. A lovely room with large balcony overlooking the garden and pool areas and wonderful sea views. Flights were OK but long journey. Thanks to Patrick and Liam
Saf, as ever, was amazing. Available, responsive, dealt with everything even our last minute room requests on a Sunday! Thank you so much!
Advise any clients leaving from BHX that they need plenty of time to get up to departure gates and through security. It was a shambles there on the day that I flew out.
Hassle free, thank you.
There are many beautiful, majestic tombs, from the Taj Mahal in Agra, to the Pantheon in Paris, to the Valley of the Kings in Luxor, Egypt. Then there's the tomb of Fredric J. Baur.
Mr Baur was the proud inventor of the Pringles can and his ashes are buried in one in the suburban cemetery of Springfield, Cincinnati, Ohio.
The Pringles mini-mausoleum of Mr Baur (1918-2008) tells you something about his home town.
It's a quirky, diverting place. It's also a brawny, historic, sometimes handsome, deeply American city of 2.2million friendly people. What's more, it's just become super-accessible thanks to a new direct British Airways route.
The first thing a traveller should learn is that the city is divided, physically, emotionally and politically, by the grand Ohio River. On the south you're actually in Kentucky, even if it feels like you're in a suburb.
In the early 19th century, this gulf twixt Ohio and Kentucky was huge, because Kentucky was a slave state and Ohio 'free'.
Slaves would sometimes flee across the river — a drama reimagined via impassioned murals on the southshore riverside by the prettily antique iron Roebling bridge. Check out the excellent Freedom Museum. Hugely sobering, seriously moving.
Otherwise, southside is great for sightseeing — and fun. It harbours some of Cincinnati's loveliest 'burbs, like Covington, where you'll find a refurbed Victorian pleasure zone.
Called Mainstrasse, in honour of the first impoverished German migrants, it is now chocka with beer gardens, restaurants, ice cream cafes, tattoo parlours and a bar — Cedar — that does the world's most satisfying Bloody Marys, which come complete with a king prawn garnish. You're meant to have them with brunch. Some might conclude they actually are brunch.
Southside is also where you'll find the best bourbon (for which Kentucky is famous, along with bluegrass and horses).
An example is the New Riff distillery. Take a tour, sit down for a tasting and finish by filling your own bottle of the good stuff.
Then retire to a great southside hotel, like the Covington (a restored 1900s department store) and have dinner at Bouquet, a block away with its succulent wagyu meatballs and pink-perfect Maple Farm duck.
Now it's time to head north, between the soaring stadiums that oversee the river like mighty fortresses: here are the homes of the famous Cincinnati Reds in baseball and the almost-as-famous Bengals for football.
If you want an authentic Cincinnati experience, buy a ticket for a game — the entire riverfront throbs with life, laughter and excellent craft lager (the city has 50 breweries) when the teams are in town.
Chunks of central Cincinnati are your standard American downtown, but there are still multiple gems. Head to Over-the-Rhine, another historic, boozy, gritty yet up-and-coming quarter named for German migrants. It's like Shoreditch meets boho Berlin with more hot dogs and some fine boutique hotels, such as Symphony, whose name denotes the grandiose music hall next door.
Not far away you'll find Findlay, a pretty, engaging, iron-roofed Victorian food market. This is a good place to try the famous, or infamous, Cincinnati chilli, which is spaghetti covered with chilli covered with cold shreds of cheddar with added cumin, vinegar, chocolate and perhaps several frankfurters. Go on, give it a go.
Where next? If you want, after your weekend in surprising Cincinnati, you could tour the rest of America — being so central, it's an ideal base for American road trips.
Alternatively, if you desire something eccentric yet entertaining, go to the American Sign Museum — a seven-buck Uber ride from downtown. It sounds boring but it's brilliant in a pure Americana-in-neon way. And it's unique, as befits the town that buried the Pringles guy in a Pringles tin.
