Kudos to Mr Vivek!

Kudos to Mr. Vivek! Due to the middle east disruption, the airline cancelled the flight. No one was picking up calls and there was no way to reach out to Gulf Air. Thankfully Carlton Leisure helped me to get the ticket reissued. Trust me...it was really a wonderful and an amazing experience booking with them.

Found them on a skyscanner search

Found this company when I was searching for flights on skyscanner. They answered the phone promptly and were fast and efficient at organising my itinerary. The tickets were emailed to me on the same day. So far, so good. Thanks, Udi.

I don't often book flights

I don't often book flights, so Carlton was a big, took all the stress away.
My big helper was Udi, he was so helpful, nothing was any trouble, he even booked our seats.
Peace of mind now thank you Udi and Calton

I had a great experience with Carlton Leisure. The team was very helpful and responsive throughout the entire process, especially when dealing with my flight schedule change.

A special thank you to Nimi, who handled my booking with professionalism and patience. She kept me informed at every step and made what could have been a stressful situation much easier to manage.

Customer service like this is hard to find, and I really appreciate the support I received. I would definitely recommend Carlton Leisure to anyone looking for reliable and efficient travel assistance.

I was confused with website and baggage
I don’t think it was clear enough in detailing that you had in the price a walk on bag for under seat storage
So I purchased additional luggage

Airline cancelled flights, Carlton Leisure still haven’t processed refund

Booked flights through Carlton Leisure for partner’s birthday. Our flights were cancelled by the airline and we elected to request a refund, which we had to do through Carlton Leisure. Despite several emails and phone calls, each time being reassured that they will process things quickly, 4 months later I have still not heard back from them and have not received a refund. Given the current climate of frequent flight cancellations, you’ll be better off booking directly with the airline.

27/4/26 ADDENDUM
I have responded to the email address listed in the reply by Carlton Leisure, including my booking number and the circumstances. Unfortunately, this too remains unanswered.

This company is absolutely useless

This company is absolutely useless. They have no active communication, barely reply to emails (usualy after 1 week delay) and the multiple phone numbers they have do not work. They make excuses that if the phone can't be answered, it's because 'lines are busy', which is nonsense.

Never had so much trouble with travel agent before. I will not book with this circus again.

My agent at Carlton leisure was called…

My agent at Carlton leisure was called Abhi. We had booked a holiday to India and Vietnam and the war in the middle East started . Abhi has been amazing in dealing with all our queries and anxieties regarding our flights. He was extremely helpful in finding alternative flight for us from Mauritius to London so we could join our friends on our schedule holiday to India and Vietnam. On our return from Vietnam to London, our daughter gave birth to our first grandchild and my wife wanted to stay longer in London to support our daughter. Abhi was again very helpful to reschedule my wife's flight to Mauritius. Abhi was prompt, professional and courteous in all our engagement with both over the phone and via email. We would recommend Abhi are Carton leisure for our future holiday and flights. Thank you very much Abhi.
